So Ive been looking everywhere for a simple g10 paramilitary 2 and not one is
out there. Ebay or anywhere. All I can find are the carbon fibers and there
going for almost $300. Too broke to go that route.
Does anyone know when the next big run of reg paramilitary 2 will be
released? Do they show this information on their website or is there some
place to get inside info so I can be prepared to grab it whenever its out?
Thanks for any help
 
That question has been asked many times the past few months. I believe it was answered by saying that the sprint run carbon fiber S90V Paramilitary 2 would be done first then the next Paramilitary 2 run would be done shortly after that. So........going by that we should see it by January if all goes as planned. But..........................:D

That is two weeks away. A little bird told me it could be months after that. There are six months of pent up demand for the black G10/S30V version to be filled first.
 
Yes, I am in the same boat and happy, in a way, to hear that people want this knife as bad as me. I guess it's a given that everyone would want one but when I found out they've made them so they can be tip-up carry, I knew I would own one and that it would only be a matter of time. Whoever said, "Time takes time" doesn't know what it's like waiting for a Spyderco.
 
I got one today on a trade. I'm assessing it as I cruise the forum..

I decided I cant wait any longer. I got that knife itch and I need to scratch
it. Ill settle for the paramilitary 1 for now. Im sure Ill be more than satisfied.
Only thing that bugs me is the pocket clip issue. But I can always do the
STR deep pocket clip mod.

If it's for a Paramilitary 1 you don't even need to send in your knife. He has his own knife that he can use for the pattern.
I highly recommend the STR low rider clip.
 
I originally bought a G-10 Para2 in early October and found the bevel on the blade had a small crater in it. I wasn't sure what to make of it but sent it in for inspection along with my $5 for return postage. A couple weeks later I got a voicemail stating that my Para2 is a warranty claim and I can get credit for another knife or wait for another Para2 which would be shipping late November to early December. Well, the wait is over. My new G-10 Para2 arrived today along with a letter stating it was replaced under warranty and my $5 stapled to it. I presume this may mean that the G-10 Para2s will start showing up at dealers soon.

I have two S90V CF Para2s on order at KC from a month ago and got a BO notice but I'm still on the list. I'll just have to be patient!
 
I think Spyderco is taking some extra time to refine the Para 2's. I had one from the first batch and the only complaint that was common was the tab on the compression lock. It looks like Spyderco fixed that with the carbon fiber sprint (moved the tab forward and opened the scale up more to make it more accessible).

I'm sure they're adding the same features to the next batch of Para 2's. Good things come to those who wait. ;)
 
I will without a doubt be getting a Paramilitary 2 to try out. Sadly(?), the knife itch killed me and I have started collecting Manix 2's while waiting

So does this mean they are finally starting to ship?
