Hall of Fame, one of the greatest pocket folders of all time ...
This is one great pocket knife. Premium S30V steel that holds edge well under hard use, excellent compression lock design for secure lock up, 4 way pocket clip location, milled liners to save weight but still giving it necessary rigidity, excellent build quality, MADE IN USA. Design-wise, it's an acquired taste as it doesn't look like a typical pocket knife and some people are turned off by it but to Spyderco fans, almost everyone has a Paramilitary 2 in their knife collection/EDC rotation. Large hole on the blade that gives it unmistakable Spyderco persona is also very functional in that you can deploy the knife easily even when wearing gloves. Overall design is superb, just the right amount of metal and plastic to do the job, engineered just right, without excess weight, tough built but not necessarily "over-built", which I equate with too much weight. I have carried those overbuilt pocket machetes and most of the time, it's just not necessary for EDC use unless you are a hard-core outdoorsmen. Then, you'd be carrying a fixed blade. Am I right? More and more, I find carrying a heavier folder to be pain in the a$$. I like well-made, light weight, purpose built knife like Paramilitary 2.
I have had several Paramilitary 2 in my possession including this one, a camo G-10 with blacked out blade that looked wickedly cool. But, since I am not a hunter or military, I felt like a doofus carrying it around the office since it looked rather menacing. Therefore, I sold that one very quickly on eBay without taking much loss, attesting to the popularity of this knife. Since this knife is so popular, you gotta watch out for fakes!!
This knife is just awesome! I have bunch of knives, some costing way more than this one, but this knife is one of my top five, just not camo, with black blade.
