This knife was produced for and available exclusively through River's Edge Cutlery (www.RiversEdgeCutlery.com) and their sales channels.

The most distinctive feature of this knife is its blade, which is crafted from CPM® 10V®, the very first member of Crucible's family of high-vanadium tool steels to be made by the Crucible Particle Metallurgy process. CPM 10V's finely tuned vanadium content provides exceptional wear resistance while maintaining toughness and machining characteristics comparable to D2 and M2. Often used as a replacement for carbide in demanding tooling applications, it is also a favorite material of performance-oriented custom knifemakers, most notably Spyderco collaborator Phil Wilson. The blade of this elite knife optimizes CPM 10V's remarkable properties with a full-flat grind and a PlainEdge™ cutting edge for outstanding edge geometry and low-friction cutting performance. To help protect the tool steel blade and eliminate reflection in tactical environments, it also features a rich, black DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon) coating. 

Not to be outdone, the handle of this Para Military 2 proudly features coyote brown G-10 scales and a four-position pocket clip that offers a choice of left or right-side, tip-up or tip-down carry. The scales are peel-ply textured for a non-slip grip and painstakingly machined to house nested stainless steel liners that form the foundation of the knife's high-strength Compression Lock® mechanism. To complement the blade finish, the clip and all handle hardware also feature non-reflective black coatings.

A truly remarkable expression of the Para Military 2, this Exclusive knife is sure to please both discriminating users and collectors alike.
