Paramilitary Handle Idea

[Brandon -B-]

I wondered if the handle of the Paramilitary could be made in Aluminium similar to the Salsa. I just finished my week with the Pass Around Salsa and consider that knife to be a success. I think Spyderco should make the handles of the Paramilitary the same way that they made the Salsa. Currently I have been digging aluminium handled knives such as my Dalton Scalper, M.O.D. Trident, Benchmade 940 and of course the Salsa. I believe that an aluminium handled Paramilitary with, Cobra Hood, tip up carry, and compression lock would give the B.M. 940 a run for it's money. If you check out the posts on the 940 you'll see that everyone and his momma loves it so why shouldn't spyderco take a chunk out of that market? I'm gonna get a Salsa simply because it's an awesome knife for EDC but would much rather get a chance to buy an Al handled Paramilitary.

IMO, the cobra hood might catch on the edge of the pocket during draw.

after handling the Salsa I don't think it ever cought during a draw. It was about the same width as the rest of the knife and was shaped so that it wouldn't catch.

If the Paramilitary had aluminum handles, I wouldn't buy one. I don't like a scratched up handle with gouges in the aluminmum surface color.

If the paramilitary had aluminum handles, I wouldn't buy one either, it better have green g-10.
