Does Spyderco use titanium hardware in any of their models?

One thing I noticed now that we have a lot more images of this model - there's a bit of chamfering around the edge of the scales finally. It should feel a little less "square" than your standard PM2 in G10.

Edit - Dang, DLT is so fast they even got my 2-day FedEx shipping here in a single day!

That is a mighty fine looking PM2! Super excited for this one!

Perfection. A PM2 salt is what I have always wanted.

Is the handle any more chamfered than a normal PM2?

It feels like it is. The machined texture is great too, it gives it a really nice grip.

It's definitely got a bit more chamfering on the outer edge. The inner edges are still squared, but I think this might be intentional just to give it slightly more grip when held tightly. Between that, the milling pattern and the peel-ply texture, this is the grippiest G10 scales I've ever held.

From what I understand, the satin version will not have the peel-ply texture on the G10, only the blacked-out version. So if you are not looking for maximum grip that may be the one to go for.

I"m not so sure about the extra grip on the black one @Wallach. Looking at stock photos, the yellow version has the same peel ply texture on the flats, so I'd say it is likely they'll feel the same in the hand.
