I like the solid border outlining the perimeter of the scales. The milling on the Caribbean goes all the way to the edge and catches on anything I pull out of that pocket.
The border up the center of the scales will probably help material slide under the clip more easily.

Absolutely!

Where the blacked out model could considered more of a street / working land variant. I also could be totally wrong . MG2RamZar wrote: ↑Sun Oct 22, 2023 2:15 amPersonally, I don’t like the yellow stripes on the G-10 scales of the satin model (makes it look like a bumble bee). I think they should’ve put a yellow stripe on the side like they did with the Thin Blue or Red Line Delica, Endura, etc. Much cleaner that way.
A few thin streaks of yellow doesn’t give it much visibility. If the entire scales were a hi-vis color that’d be different. However, making it all yellow G-10 would probably make it less attractive for purchase.
Anyway, I hope when they plan for the Military2 Salt MagnaCut with Satin Blade a better option arises.

Re: Magnacut Paramilitary 2
I fully agree with you man. The black and yellow is so ugly. Looks like cheap tools you buy at a hardware store hehekennethsime wrote: ↑Fri Oct 20, 2023 2:56 pmI wonder, will the new Salt PM2 fit typical aftermarket scales?
I like Maganacut, but don't care for the black and yellow. I'd love to throw some Micarta on there!
Some titanium scales or Micarta would be awesome. Anything a bit more premium looking for such a nice steel. Now ill have to buy it and get other scales anyway. And dont even get me started that the Para 3 is only a lightweight option. Cant even put on n ice aftermarket scales to help it out.

Re: Magnacut Paramilitary 2
Honestly, I don’t mind G10, I’m just particular about colors. Micarta is a nice option if im already changing scales.maansleroux wrote: ↑Sun Nov 05, 2023 10:09 pmI fully agree with you man.

I’m pretty stoked on the P3LW. I like the LW model better than the G10, feels like it takes up less space in the pocket.
I'm happiest with Micarta and Tool Steel.

Re: Magnacut Paramilitary 2
I have to assume that the black/yellow bumblebee look is an attempt to determine just how far they will have to go to keep the PM2 in Magna-Cut from selling out in ten minutes or fewer.

Re: Magnacut Paramilitary 2
Just wanted to say thanks for info in this thread. PM2 in Magnacut is indeed first Spyderco I ever ordered, but since my post I also ordered a Millie in crucarta, and a endura wharncliff in K390. Only the endura has arrived so far but it is epic! Can’t wait for my PM2 and my Millie! Woohoo!
