Which Para-Military is current? (pics inside)

[Fisher of Men]

Below are 2 different looking black bladed Para-Militarys. The first one is the better looking I think. All the screws, and the compression lock are blacked out and the logo and writing on the blade are more whilte. The bottom picture looks worse.

In the very near future I'm going to be trying to grab a black bladed Para-Mil and I would rather have the one that is like the top photo. Can anyone tell me which is the current kind and if I can get the kind in the top picture?

I have this gut feeling telling me the top picture is a prototype and is non-existant.

The top photo is the one from Spyderco's website, and the bottom one has been photoshopped to remove logo's from a familiar online dealer we all like

Is the bottom one the only one out there? If that's the case I think I'll go for the standard non coated blade.





Thanks for reading,
