You'll develop callouses soon.
Thanks for all the congrats!
Lol, I didn't mean to start a flame war over the knife. As I said in the other thread, the great deal was that I got the knife for $100 when the price tag read $149.
9blades, haunt the exchange. I have seen two Para2s go for around the same price that I paid.

Skyline is a great little folder. I need to get my hands on another one.
I really want to get the majority of the limited ones and switch them around as I please.
Trading off my Air. Getting another Chokwe with a flamed lock side.
Gonna switch the lock side from it to my Chokwe cause then I'll have my original Chokwe with Flamed Ti and Toxic Green scale.
Then gonna slap an Orange scale on the one that's really really used with the new bead blasted side and let it go to a new home.
Oh and I have a user Galyean Pro Series Small JYD coming in from a trade.
Super excited.
Trades make me happy. =]

Hey you know what I was thinking? Why don't we allow SpyderNation members to casually trade Spyderco knives with each other so that more people can try out different models? Kinda like a members only passaround?
I don't know bout anyone else but that would be huge incentive for me to buy more unique models if I could try them out first.

^^^ Blade on the one I'm getting has been kind of polished to buff out scratches.
On top of that, the bearings fell out of the IKBS and he has most of them(8 on each side instead of 12) so the IKBS still works and is still smooth which is great.
But it is an user.
I'm excited though. It's going to be great once I get it and put a nice edge on it. I expect it to be a favorite. Users see all the more love from me. I'm happy.
I'll post pics of it once I have it.
And then I'll post pics of the Chokwe's once I get the other and do the swap.

Btw new member added to the "Spyder-nest":
Yes I removed the clip, I didn't like the "paddle clip" that comes with it at all
it just feels flimsy to me plus it's a little longer than what I'm used to, I'm hoping to find someone willing to make a smaller more low profile (titanium?) clip to come along who might also be willing to trade something for it 
I love the barrel clip on the Salt series and the Native
