SP81GPDBL2: C81GPDBL2 Paramilitary 2

Spyderco

Available here at the KnifeCenter is the Paramilitary 2 blue/purple G10 folding combat knife featuring a CPM-S110V stainless steel blade. It's another excellent hard-use everyday carry blade that's as collectible as any production knife out there.

Why change something if it works? At Spyderco, they practice the principle of C.Q.I. - Constant Quality Improvement. If they can refine and improve the ergonomics or cutting performance of an established model, they do it.

The Spyderco Paramilitary 2 tactical folding knife has several changes over the classic version. The G10 handle is narrowed at the end improving the ergonomics. The handle and blade have been profiled thinner; removing uncomfortable angles when in the closed position. It features a Compression Lock and an ambidextrous-friendly four way clip which carries tip-up/tip-down, left/right-hand and rests deeper in a pocket. They kept the same full flat-ground blade shape but they've also lengthened the blade's tip and added additional surface jimping to both the spine and finger choil. Implementation of an updated Bushing Pivot System generates fluid action and more consistent manufacturing tolerances. A larger lanyard hole gives you more options for carry and shows just how refined this knife is.

Is it just me???

The s110v steel on my knife is a huge pain. First and foremost, it has, what is possibly, the most finicky edge of any knife I have owned other than a $15 flipper I bought at Wal-Mart. This thing goes dull just from looking at it funny. If you think about it the wrong way it will go dull. Now, when I say "dull" it doesn't mean it's not "sharp enough". Ok, but "sharp enough" is not the domain of $250 knives. For this to be a $250 knife it should really hold a razor-sharp edge through a lot of cutting. It's also very hard to get sharp. You would think, logically, that a knife steel this hard to sharpen, which pretty much requires diamond or ceramic sharpening stones, would hold an edge for a long time... You know, it probably depends on what you cut, but, simply cutting cardboard will wear this knife's edge down really fast. It's VERY hard to get shaving sharp....

Now I'm a Believer

I never had any interest in Spydercos. To me they look kind of uggo, frankly. I also prefer neutral handles that allow you to apply a variety of grips, but that's because I'm kind of a mall ninja at heart.Anyway, I get it now. The Para 2 tells you where to put your fingers and it's totally right; just an ergonomically perfect knife. The amount of control that you feel when you put your thumb on the ramp or choke up is amazing. For someone that actually needs to do work with their knife, it's basically perfect. Not only that, but the decidedly non-threatening aesthetic makes it much better for using in public and not getting harassed by cops or Karens compared to other full size folders. I heard these are hard to sharpen but I haven't had to sharpen mine yet. The edge retention on the steel is just great.It only gets a 4/5 because #1: aesthetics, it's pure minimalist function over form, and #2: there are knives with much better action (axis/crossbar lock knives and ball bearing pivot knives for example). It has good action *for a knife on washers* and with a rather stiff lock bar to interact with. I thusly can't call the knife perfect, but it's pretty close, and I can see why some people would say so.

Another Homer For Spyderco!

This is a truly great quality piece with a multitude of uses. The quality is typical Spyderco which means that it is top notch in every respect. The Blue/Purple G10 scales are very attractive as well as practical, durable and comfortable. The Compression lock is a wonderfully designed, very strong and comfortable to use blade action The CPM-S110V steel is a great upgrade and makes for a great all round steel blade quality. All in all really a great purchase as a quality EDC,a tactical carry or as a unique addition to a personal collection.
