Is there a Para 3?

Is there a forthcoming, slightly smaller Para 3?

Dealer mentioned it, but I could find nothing to confirm.

Is this a myth?

Re: Black Perrin PPT Sprint inbound

The PPT is so beautiful . I love the FFG S30v blade and would buy the PPT just for its wonderful corrugated scales.

Re: If You Own Both a Slysz Techno and a Slysz Bowie ...

In another forum, I once said the Techno was like having a small Les George VECP folder.

I'd also rank the Slysz Bowie up there with the Georges in quality.

Re: Production Foundry!

I recently received two folders that are heavier than I prefer for pocket-carry: The Viper Odino and the Foundry. They are similar in shape -- until you look at them from the side. The Foundry is so thin it makes the Viper look obese. My Odino is the all-Ti version, has a nice wide blade and pivot b...

Thanks.

Re: Any update on the Foundry?

I got one. In the hand, it feels just a tad bit heavier than the Slysz Bowie, which is close in size. In my pocket, if feels heavier than the Slysz (which it is.) I love the thin, open-pillar design; the large, easy-to-use Spydie hole; the thumb ramp with jimping, and the terrific wide blade. It ope...

Re: Any update on the Foundry?

Wow -- just wow! She is really beautiful.

I hope you will make an all-Ti version for the rest of us.

Thanks for the update, Sal.

Any update on the Foundry?

The site still says the release date is "TBD."

Has anyone seen one?

Has anyone found specs that give the size?

Re: Why do I almost always choose a 3" EDC blade?

Love the Techno, but can we have a 3-inch Bowie?

My sweet spot is 2.75 - 3 inches.

Re: All-Ti framelocks

Sadly, I lack the photo skills. My friend has the camera, but she makes me pay a high psychological price indeed for her to take photos of one of my expensive folding knives. For those who are interested, here is a link to the modder. Photos of the Techno standoffs are fairly low down on the first p...

All-Ti framelocks

I love all-Ti framelocks, and happily bought a Techno as soon as Spydie released it.

But it wasn't perfect.

I replaced that blue backspacer with Ti standoffs.

Now it's perfect: Wow -- IMO, this is the Techno as it was meant to be!
