Re: The Carry Conundrum

I've only been an EDC guy for a little over a year now and have a small collection, but it's always the Smock or the Para3 that I switch between. Looking to get a Spidiechef next.

Re: I'm scared of the Para 3

New PM2 and blade play

Hello Recently obtained a new PM2 S45VN. Satin blade with black G10. Love it, but can't seem to get it to that sweet spot of no blade play while retaining decent action. Don't need drop shut but also don't want it so tight I can't flick it open. After I tighten the pivot screws to a point where ther...
