I just received these two beauties today when I got home from work. Great knives. Just beautiful. The color is weird and like the color on the FG Delica. It seems to change colors depending on what it's next to.

One of them did come with a boogered up screw in the handle. It was just sitting flush with the handle and the others were counter sunk a bit. I wanted to tighten it but it wouldn't tighten so I removed the screw to find the threads were messed up. I threw in 2 pictures of the boogered up threads. I've contacted Spyderco about getting a new screw. ;)

Enjoy the pictures.

Hmm hopefully they will slap that green g-10 on a different knife as I already have a BG-42 millie which I love so dearly. A green Para-Millie would be so cool looking!

A foliage green Para? Perhaps with some of that CPM-D2? What a great idea... they would make a great set!

I see Spyderco use blank screws for the clip now, that's spares time and is a good idea :D

Thanks a lot for your pictures, David!

Peter,

I do prefer the uncoated silver screws on all clips. I like them much better than the black screws. :)

Thanks also for the compliments again folks. :)

I've been carrying one of my FG CPM-D2 Mili's since Friday. Man is it nice. At first I wasn't sure I would like the green but I really do now. It's such a nice change from black. ;)
