**UPDATE**Would Sal ever consider another lock type for the Para 2?

[Soulrack223]

I'd like to see an integral titanium compression lock--like we were supposed to see on the Tuff. I hope that the Tuff having a RIL means that the Para 2 with an integral titanium compression lock is on its way.

I have posed the question to spyderco CS months ago, and also did a photoshop job of a Ti frame-comp lock. I don't know how difficult it would be for them to engineer this. I do know they had the ti and ss frame-comp locks on the ATR's many years back, so the technology is in their hands.

These were my templates the atr and my para2 cf

Hi Bronco,

I imagine anything is possible, but in this case, I must say, not likely. We've spent a great deal of time refining the lock on the Para and it suits the model well. As shown in the photo-shop, I would guess that an integral would be more likely.

Hey Hunter, sorry 'bout that.

Thanks mate =] Had a lot of motivation to make it back then since I got the idea popping in the head regarding one of my favorite knives.
