Available here at the KnifeCenter is the all black Paramilitary 2 folding combat knife. Why change something if it works? Because, 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 SpydercoParamilitary 2 tactical folding knife has several changes over the classic version. The G-10 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 high-performance CPM-S45VN full flat-ground blade but they've also lengthened the blade's tip and added additional surface jimping to both the spine and finger choil. Implementation of a new Bushing Pivot System generates fluid action and more consistent manufacturing tolerances. Larger lanyard gives more options for carry.
Refinements to overall construction may not be drastic or even visible to the eye but from the G-10 textured handle to the CPM-S45VN steel full flat black blade, everything is sharper, smoother and guaranteed to provide performance and user comfort.
Pocket Clip
Includes a pocket clip for easy accessibility and a more secure carry.
G10 Handles
Formed in a sheet under high pressure by combining fiberglass and an epoxy resin binder. These handles are lightweight and shaped to ensure a solid grip.
S45VN Stainless Steel
An evolution of the S30V family of steels, S45VN maintains the desired toughness of S35VN while achieving higher edge retention.
Made in USA

Spyderco Paramilitary 2 Folding Knife 3.42" CPM-S45VN Black Blade, Black G10 Handles
I think Spyderco must have seen me coming when they created the PM2. I initially had a lot of difficulty deciding between this one and the s90v. I overcame my indecision by getting both. If you own one I don't need to tell you how great they are. If you don't own one I would strongly recommend you get one, or more.
