I’ve got some exciting news for you. Roger has left to go to the Outdoor Retail Show in Utah, on his way he decided to stop by and visit Spyderco Factory. As he was there, he was able to pick up (50) of the Knifework’s Exclusive Paramilitary 2 CTS-204P. The knives were set aside for Spyderco employees, which decided they didn’t want this model. He is bringing home the models next week. If you are interested in this knife, you will need to call me to place an order. I am emailing 50 customers on the 2nd notification list. I am emailing these in order as on you are listed on the notification list. I will have the knives reserved for you until Monday 5:00 pm CST. After Monday, if you have not placed your order, your knife will be released to the next customer on the notification list. The knives are only reserved for the people I have emailed. Please give us a call at 888-225-9775, limit (1) per customer.



These will be ready to ship out on Thursday, August 8th.

Thank You!

Ashley Williams
 
Since you posted this email for everyone to see with the phone number, I am going to hope that KW will confirm people's email addresses when people call to order.
 
Oldbugr, You have broken secrecy of private correspondence.... shame on You.
 
Yes. I got the email last week and called Ashley immediately. She did verify my email. Yes, I got one. It ships on Thursday. Yay!
 
I got another email earlier today informing me that Knifeworks has shipped my brand new, Dealer Exclusive, Green CTS-204P Paramilitary 2 -- a day early, at that!

Having missed the initial "Pre-Order," by only a day, I had immediately requested that I be placed on a "Stand-by" list in the event that there might be cancellations or extras. Little did I realize at the time how long it would take for this knife come to fruition. No one did, I don't believe. And little did I realise the frustration I would experience that morning back in June when KnifeWorks website melted down after 30 extra knives were tossed up for grabs, much-like chum for hungry sharks!

But now that's all just ancient history. I finally have a tracking number and a new Green Para 2 is headed in my direction. So, I hope no one will mind if I say yay, again -- "Yay!"
 
bdmicarta your creepy alien is gone!


Edit: never mind I was thinking of bld522

Guess I wasn't high enough on the list this go around. Will happily wait for more to come to light and make its way to my pocket. :)
 
Got the email but I'll be pushing the Monday deadline before I pull the trigger on this one. I wanted to order one immediately but I wasn't expecting this and I may have to do some horse trading to get my funds in order.
 
The waiting is finally over. And, the wait was definitely worth it.

So, far after a very careful inspection, this knife appears to be the very best of my 4 Para 2's straight out of the box. The blade is perfectly centered. The G10 is a gorgeous shade of dark forest green. Nice n' grippy like all of my Para 2's. The grind lines on this blade are spot-on perfect and this could very well be the sharpest knife I have ever received! The action is smooth as butter and the compression lock operates flawlessly and effortlessly. No issues with sticking at all. I have had great luck with all of my Para 2's in that regard. After reading reports of compression lock issues I am relieved to say that I have never experienced any problems with any of mine.

It's a really sweet knife and I am very happy to finally have it!







It fits right into the family quite nicely.
