Spyderco Para Military 2 G10 Digi Camo 18

I got my Para for EDC+ tasks (Fishing, field / bush craft etc.) and all I can say is wow. I was torn between the Para 2 and the Manix 2 but I'm sure I made the right decision. Compression lock is solid and blade shape and sharpness are great too. In hand I initially thought the G10 felt a little cheap but once I used it, it all fell into place beautifully. Ergo's are world class (As with all Spyderco's) and extended cutting times are not a problem.(No hot spots in hand). It is a tad on the expensive side but you certainly get what you pay for. It's a little on the large side for UK EDC but perfect for them jobs that require a little more oomph. If your budget can stretch to it, go for it, you won't be disappointed.

Got this knife a few days ago after reading reviews about it and it is truly superb knife as everybody says that purchased one well done spyderco.

Exerlent knife it is a must to have like they all say and after sales care is brilliant Richard of heinnie heyes

You know, I've purchased a number of knives for my collection that when I've received them I been a little disappointed and considered them "overhyped". Not being a big Spyderco fan I have resisted the temptation to buy a Paramilitary for a couple of years now. But I finally took the plunge last week. WHY DID I WAIT SO LONG?? This is one of the best knives I've ever handled. They've just got the knife SO right in SO many ways. If you haven't got one, you don't know what you're missing. A must for any collector. Am now buying the Military as I write... Looks like Spyderco have won me over and I feel daft for holding out on what has to be one of (if not the) the best pound for pound knife I've ever owned.

WOW what a beauty...ordering another soon in satin,black, cannot just have one, these things are like biscuits you gotta have two or more... Excellent service HH thank you

There's not a lot that I can say that hasn't been said already. The knife is not as big or awkward to pocket pictures do it no justice. When closed the blade is perfectly centred and when open you could easily shave hairs right out the box. The steel keeps a good edge the locking mechanism is one of the best I have used on any knife. The digital camo G10 scales are perfectly sculpted and offer lots of grip even in wet conditions. You get what you pay for and you get a lot from this knife.

Lost detant ball after several openings. Very stiff to open and close (blade is not free at all). Playing with it for more than 15 minutes hearts fingers used for unlocking (in my case, first 3 fingers and they are in pain for 1-2 days afterwards). Entire blade was not sharpened. Very short cutting edge compared to the lenght of the knife. Fun to open if we ignore the stiffnes (not fun to close). Handle has very good shape but is quite thin and not suited for longer use.

Spyderco have produced an excellent Folder - the best yet , maybe ? The size is not to big , not to small. The blade is razor sharp out the box. Feels solid yet still light weight. Fits in the hand and the scales have lots of grip. And goes without saying that HH delivery was lightning fast ( how do they do it !?)

At first I was over the moon with knife, then when I went to touch up the edge with sharpmaker I noticed the profile was out( unusual for spydreco). Sent it back to HH where richard reprofiled blade for me immediately, great service HH, anyway this classic spyderco knife now has a hairsplitting edge and its a joy to use.
