Plus the Rex 45 is run harder than the Hap40 was, maybe 3 points harder.

If anyone's still looking for one knives plus have a few in stock. They're not showing on their website but if you shoot them an email they'll sort you out! They've also got some pm2s and militarys.
Thanks so much for sharing this info, I am so grateful!! I was able to snag one, I was a day late on the Paramilitary 2 REX 45 and was not able to score one and I had all my hopes gone for this one until I saw your post!!

Thanks again,

L

Of the 6 vendor websites I monitor, I've managed to miss all the 5 and 10 minute windows they had them in stock.

Well I can tell you that KC just filled my preorder from 5/31. Maybe they just got another batch in, but like Raymond said, they don't even list the knife on their website which would confirm that they took enough preorders to cover their allotment.
I'm glad you got yours! I had seen a post you made a day or two ago wondering if anyone else got their's. Somehow it all works.
Thank you! I’m glad it worked out as I’ve been anticipating this drop for a couple months now. Aside from trying out a new steel I also get my favorite knife in my favorite color. Life is good... now I just need it to hurry up and get here!

I received my Para 3 from KC a few minutes ago. I'd say it's every bit as nice as the PM2. The factory edge is very sharp, blade's centered, action's good, G10's grippy, etc.

The one thing I've noticed on Para 3 and the PM2 is the very tips appear to be bent a tiny bit. It turns out that the edge grind toward the tip is a little higher on the show side making the tip appear to be bent toward the clip side when viewed from the top. No big deal. They'll both be corrected at some point.

Do you have any pictures? I'm out in a cabin by the woods and mine got delivered today also. I won't be back home until Monday night though lol. I'm kinda jonesing for those orange scales.

One seller on thebay has 10 available at $189 free shipping. Not a huge price gouge when tax isn’t involved!

That's White Mountain Knives. Interestingly they don't list it at all on their website. This knife isn't worth an extra $50 premium. Not a shop I would do business with.

I didn’t notice that :/ hmmmm... I got my Rex PM2 from them at 162, I wonder why they’re charging that much more for the PM3...Besides $$$ of course.

We're out now so it'll have to be later. I have a blue M390 Para 3 on me now. You could imagine it's burnt orange. ☺
