Spyderco Forums

They don’t seem to be in stock anywhere unfortunately.

The original PARA 3 LW was my first Spyderco knife, so it holds a special place in my heart. After rolling the blade out and gripping it for the first time I instantly "got it" with the whole Spyderco thing. It went from "weird looking knife" to a masterwork of design follows fu...

My PM2 helped me cut open 12 arborvitae planters and 20 bags of top soil today.

Congrats. I can’t wait to pick one up too

I’ll add the Watu to my short list and check it out. Sounds like an interesting option. Much appreciated.

Is the Sage similar in size to the Delica? And is the LW version the one to get?

Thanks so much. Great input.

I didn’t realize the PM3 was close in size to the Delica. That makes the PM3 LW a good option. I wish there was a ship date on the PM3 Salt.

Check out the Mantra 3 as well. It's discontinued, but should still be readily available on the secondary market.

Will do

I was thinking of that knife. I think it’s a little bigger than a Delica but probably manageable.

I don’t know if there is an ETA on it yet though.

I love my Delica but miss the fidget factor of the compression lock PM2? Is there a Spyderco in the D4 size with a compression lock? Or at least similar fun factor to a PM? Thanks!

PS and if it came in a Salt version, I’d be smitten!

Here’s an Amazon link to the floats I use if anyone’s interested.

Wait, you don’t have a foot of corks attached to yours like the rest of us do?!

Thanks for doing the experiment. Good info all around.

My new PM2. I love this thing! High fun factor.

T6 on the clip. T8 on the scales to liners or body screws and T10 on the pivot.

Thanks so much!

Thanks. I cracked one side of the pivot a bit and it helped. I don’t have the Torx screw to get the clip off so I can’t get to the other side.

Does anyone know what size the clip torx are?

I bit the bullet and bought a PM2. I really like it a lot. It’s built like a tank!

One question: it’s a little stiff to open and close. Will it break in overtime or is it worth adding a drop of oil to the pivot? It’s not as ‘flicky’ as the videos I see online.

I cut a piece of heavy plastic landscape edging with my Pac 2 today. It didn’t even wince!

I have a PM2 on the way. I’m super excited!

Thanks all. I just wanted to make sure it wasn’t a cheaper variant of the much coveted PM2 before I pulled the trigger.

Just to close the loop, I ended up ordering a PM2 today. I’m excited about it! I definitely don’t need it and could absolutely live with this Delica but what fun is that?
