It's been available at a bunch of different online retailers, but tends to sell out rather quickly.

If you're looking for one, you can find some currently in stock at CutleryShoppe.com

Anyone who has large thick hands and gets a P3, please post photos of the knife in hand. Thanks

Good luck, that really is a pain being ill.. :(
I finally own one since last night and it is well worth the wait!

Mine from Knifeworks finally made it through Dutch customs and I got it last night. Finally have one of these great pocket rockets! :D
Made a couple of Military family pics but don't recall how to post pics here again so I'll try that tomorrow.

Hey Doc,

What counts as large thick hands? I've had a Para 3 for a few days. Happy to take photos for you if it will help? I'm 6', 275lbs, former strongman, hands are still a bit on the thick side from those days. The Para 3 is definitely smallish for me; it's great for light duty work, and work requiring more precision. But really HD work would be a no go with a handle this small.

Comparisons: the GB 1 is closer to a good fit for me; a Manix 2 feels a _lot_ better; Farid K2 hits length and height well, thickness not so much; the Szabo folder is great for length and thickness; Nirvana is pretty good all around.

If there are any photos which would help you more than others, let me know. I'll try to get this done for you fairly quickly.

Show me some pics gripping the knife as you are using it front and back. I would appreciate it.
