Oh man this worked out great.
What’s better than a knife with M4 !?
Two knives with M4 with two different blade lengths. Can carry both and they complement each other.
OK . . . I’m rationalizing . . .
I actually really, really like the natural G10 !
This looks like what some alien from outer space would EDC right ? !
Kind of “Out Of This World”.
So cool.
This is the PERFECT Spyderco Military for me of all the possible combinations of handle and blade alloy. AND THIS IS A TRUE EVENT BECAUSE IT IS MY FIRST SPYDERCO MILITARY ! ! ! ! So I'm celebrating. There is streamers and confetti every where . . . people are starting to get a little over the top . . . picking up on my high . . . wish you all could be here but it's a small auditorium and it's already packed.
Not to put down the Ti and Carbon Fiber . . . no . .. THAT is way cool as well but this one’s more me and besides I already have the carbon fiber look in the Gayle Bradley 1. The dark green one was very close for a while, as I said, but the M4 really does it for me so I tipped over into BHQ.
I was pretty bummed when they didn’t make enough Para 2s in this combo so that I could get one. I wanted a user Para. I have my black on black safe queen (nary a scratch) but no other yet.
At first I couldn’t get into the larger Military in this natural and M4 but then the more I thought about it I became aware what a great user it is going to be and since it is larger than the GB even more reason to use it often. As apposed to the Para 2 which is closer to the GB in size.
Glad I came to my senses.
All looks good with this example.
I’m glad it is tip down being such a large knife (easier to get to the spyder hole).
So far I wouldn’t change a thing. Some one said if they grind it thinner they could see themselves carrying this one for years. Maybe I too will go that route. Time will tell.
Surprising how rigid the handle is when squeezing the sides together; partial liners, as this one has, are really all that is needed.
