S110V PM2 Coming! (Production model!)

Ugghghghhh I was just about to pull the trigger on my first Paramillie, too. Problems.
I wish I didn't have to pay the full ticket to get on the pre-order list, I can't really afford to have $150 locked up until "late 2015".

I guess I'll have to "settle" for S30V for now. ;D

S110v Is not a total upgrade to s30v anyway
 
It's hard to get a good read on which wonder steels are really better than the others, there's a lot of anecdotal and very little hard data.

What I've got so far is:
- VG-10 is easy to sharpen and holds an edge well for the price
- S30V holds an edge really well and is relatively easy to sharpen
- S90V holds an edge forever and is impossible to sharpen
- S110V holds an edge almost forever and is difficult to sharpen

Do we have any promo pictures of this unicorn yet? I want to see what the dark blue G10 looks like, I'm assuming it's not the blue from the M390 sprint knives.

S110v should hold an edge longer than s90v the downside to it instead of s30v is less stability at acute angles. Depends on the task

I'm not a big metal expert. For a general use EDC blade, should I get S110V or S30V?

Depends what edc use involves.

For me, the big thing is cutting tough plastic. The company I work for makes prefab buildings, our pallets of lumber come wrapped in plastic tarp banded with plastic fiber strapping that is tough enough to have gouged the edge of the Veff serrations on my beater CRKT. That's mostly push cutting, since the band under heavy tension and I can juuust wedge a blade under it.

You'll end up with both anyway [emoji1]

I was worried you might say that!
 
Hey all. I know everyone has been curious to what the S110V PM2 will look like. As the picture below states, this is not an official picture. But I held the prototype S110V PM2 that Sal personally carries around last week when I visited SFO. I can tell you that the picture is a spitting image of what the prototype S110V PM2 looks like. The blue is indeed a darker blue than the M390 PM2, and it fits the knife really well. Hopefully this will cure some of your guys' curiosity on it. Can't wait to get my hands on one of my own!

Unfortunately, the blue on my S110V Paramilitary 2 will be quickly replaced with some sweet carbon fiber.
 
I think, IMO, S30V may be the best steel going for this platform, "for an all-around daily EDC".:) Will still try to pick up the other steels - S110v and M4
 
I think I'll keep my one s35vn user, 204p safequeen, and add the s110v and call it a day. Unless they release a 3v one. lol
