Re: Spyderco Para 3 Varieties, News & Modifications
Delica 4's been out a lot longer. And you do sound whiney. There's been what? 35 variations of the Para 3 in like 3 or 4 years? Instead of being grateful that your favorite model has so many variants you complain that there hasn't been another one released in the past 6 months. I like the Para 3 but after buying 5 or 6 G10 versions and a few LWs I don't carry if there wasn't another exclusive or sprintCrux wrote: ↑Tue Jan 26, 2021 6:46 pmPlease, don't make me laugh.

Re: Spyderco Para 3 Varieties, News & Modifications
37 new Para3 models from December 2016 to November 2020 is a lot in such a short period. For diehard Para3 fans there’s an opportunity to collect the regular production models in S30V/G-10 now with the upcoming S45VN/G-10.

Re: Spyderco Para 3 Varieties, News & Modifications
I own 220+ Spydercos (all bought in the last 2 years), so I think I can ***** a little. Actually, from MY view, you are the whiney one. Put your money where your mouth is my friend. The number of my Spyderco purchases in the last 4 months is $0.00, so sure I'll just deep 6 this whole experience thanks to friends like you.Sharp Guy wrote: ↑Tue Jan 26, 2021 6:59 pmDelica 4's been out a lot longer.

They’re not considered new models or even CQI models. Just a change from S30V to S45VN on Shaman, ParaMilitary2, Para3, etc.
For instance, Native5 went from S35VN to S30V a few years ago and the model#, etc. remained the same.

Re: Spyderco Para 3 Varieties, News & Modifications
Was there ever a Para 3 Knife Center exclusive with smooth black G10 and Cruwear blade with DLC coating? A guy says he has one but I don't remember hearing of it and can't find reference to it anywhere. It's not listed in this thread and it's not on Spydiewiki (but they appear to be missing a couple)
