Description
Description
Spyderco knives introduces the Para-Military 2. This next generation Spyderco Para-Military knife features a number of inspiring changes. The revised handle has a thinner profile at the end to improve the ergonomics and the ambidextrous four-way reversible pocket clip rests deeper in the pocket as well. The blade has an elongated profile, with an increased cutting edge, finger choil and thumb ramp. Implementation of a new Bushing Pivot System generates fluid action and more consistent manufacturing tolerances. The Para-Military still has the solid, confidence inspiring Compression Lock on the handle spine. Lastly, the size of the lanyard hole has been generously increased, giving the user more carry options. This all results in more than just change for the sake of change, it's a real improvement on an already great knife.
This Para-Military 2 knife has a premium CPM-S30V flat ground blade with a plain cutting edge. The U.S. Army digital camouflage pattern handle scales are textured G-10 for strength and grip.

I had this knife in my pocket every day for over a year now. It hasn't been babied either. It has never let me down. The best upgrade you can do is to get a deep carry pocket clip from MXG gear.

Now I know my title sounds a bit far fetched, but I have been collecting pocket knives for several years and own Benchmades, Cold Steels, Spydercos, CRKT, etc. and the PM 2 is easily the most comfortable and dependable. The handle seems to fit any size hand great, the lockup is sturdy and strong, and the S30V blade slices like an absolute champ. This knife is a hardworking, sleek, and high quality tool that I would 10/10 recommend for anyone.
Awesome knife!

I never had a nice knife until I got this one. It's so amazing I got a para 3 to match.

Over the course of the past 10 years, my love over pocket knives has sort of turned into an obsession. And one of the knives responsible for that it this one. The Para 2. I had a decent collection of $50somthing knives until I placed my hands on a Para 2. Long story short, I now have 2 Para 2s, three Delica 4s, a centofante, 2 Enduras, a Manix, a Yojimbo... And a host of ZTs, Benchmades and a microtech or 2. My favorite though, my #1 carry, my Para 2 in digicam. Get it.
Love it!

I've had a para2 for years and it's still my go to EDC blade. I have a para1 and a para3 as well but the 2 holds a special place in my heart. It's ergonomics are spot on and it takes a WICKED edge! So if your on the fence about getting one then let me help you out..... BUY IT! Trust me, you won't regret it (:

I have many high end knives, and this PM2 is one of my favorites. The quality of this blade is great, the steel is amazing, the fit and finish is just flawless. Price is perfect for what you're getting as well. I don't think I have any complaints on this blade. I will say this is probably the sharpest knife I have ever gotten from a factory. Very pleased.
Amazing knife

Got my pm2 a few years ago, it held up flawlessly it's been through alot. Edge retention is great due to s30v and not too hard to sharpen. I've had other knives come and go but this one has stayed the longest and will stick around for a long time to come.
Pros:
-great beater knife
-big but not too big.
- Edge retention is great.
-Ease of sharpening is so-so.
-Jimping and ergos are top tier
Cons:
-may be big for some people.
-G10 may be a bit agressive at first,
-lanyard hole is hard to get out on disassembly.

I have been using this knife for almost a year now and it has done everything I have asked of it. It has cut anything from bags of quickcrete, to straw bales, to wood, and cardboard boxes. I have since used rit die to make the camo handles dark blue and attached an mxg gear deep carry clip.
Great knife!!

This is an excellent overall knife. It’s not to big and not to small. It feels really good and is very sharp. I’d definitely recommend it to anyone!!
A benchmark and for good reason!

Love the gimping!!! Few knives are done right with gimping. This one is. Super ergonomic. Not a fan of the clip that much so I switched mine out with a lynch deep carry titanium clip. Love the blade profile, and the fact that there are many sprint runs. Only complaint is it's seemingly impossible to unscrew the screws to take it apart, at least for me. Still will give 5 stars.
Great EDC

This has been a great knife to carry. I work as a paramedic and usually have a lot of stuff i carry on my person, so sometimes its nice to have a lightweight but heavy duty knife that i know will handle any task i need whether its cutting a seat belt off of a patient or cutting open a new package. Love it!
Outstanding knife

This was my first high end knife about 6 years ago. It gave me a new appreciation for what a good knife can do. It has aged amazingly and still competes with my Hinderers and Chris Reeves.

I've owned a couple Spyderco knives before buying the Para 2 and love every one of them. Para 2 comes sharp, stays sharp, and the opening and closing of it is great. No complaints about the knife, I look forward to using it for a long time.

I have had this knife for years, and it has never let me down. Lock up is still tight, and the steel is easy to sharpen and holds edge retention well. It is a little bit more difficult to take down compared to some of my other knives, but not so much as to ruin the knife.
Pros: Great ergonomics. Excellent steel. G10 offers plenty of grip. Flat grind looks awesome. Action is good and smooth.
Cons: Not the easiest disassembly.

Built to fill the hand, this knife feels like it can do anything. It is a little bit on the large size for my personal taste, but I really enjoy it. It is a smooth operator with its free-swinging blade; the edge holds up very well.The compression lock is a joy to use, and works for both hands. This knife is also a great fidget tool. Very pleased with the digicam.

Having several Spyderco knives, the buzz around the Para 2 finally enticed me to purchase. The focus on many small details add up to one high quality Spyderco. The handle material is very "grippy" with the edges sanded smooth. The four position pocket clip allow you to have it your way for pocket carry. I like the extra large thumb hole as well as the large, metal lined lanyard hole. The choil and jimping are added bonuses when positioning for use. The handle is well designed fills your hand. Made in USA is the final selling point that makes this one a must have in any Spyderco collection.
Great folding knife.

Great knife, I was against them for along time because they are not 100% usa made. But I don't regret the purchase. I can honestly say id rather pay more for this same knife if Benchmade made it and stood behind it with their warranty, sharpening program and customer service. But it is what it is.
Great deployment and locking!

I absolutely love this knife! It flicks right open with that giant thumb-hole Spyderco is notorious for and I think is easier to close than an axis lock. It takes a while to get it sharp but that's made up for by the longevity of its edge. There's no reason to spend the extra sixty bucks on a Benchmade 940 since I love this knife way better than any Benchmade (but they do make great knives).
Love the locking mechanism

Great knife. I just don't like the digi camo scales. Black G-10 was sold out when I ordered. Great blade on the whole though.

I just recently became interested in knives and so I wanted to purchase one that was well made and reliable. The Paramilitary 2 by Spyderco is it and more! The blade came out of the box very sharp, even being able to shave some hairs off my arm! The compression lock is superb and I must admit that it had me playing with the knife for a few hours. Also the handle is very comfortable and grippy so you need not worry about it slipping out of your hand. If I could I would give the PM 2 a 10/5 because it is just that darn good! I plan to purchase and install a back spacer and a deeper pocket clip in the near future just to customize it a tad but even if I did not plan on it I would still love the knife all the same. Thank you Spyderco for making an awesome, no, very awesome EDC knife! I will definitely be purchasing more of your products in the future. And thank you Blade HQ for selling this knife at a great price. Consider me a returning customer!
My new EDC!

The action, blade sharpness, ergonomics, and one-handed manipulation is outstanding. This knife has the perfect form of jimpingness... No, I'm not kidding. So glad I kept looking for this blade. This is my first Spyderco and it won't be my last!

L.E.O. and military EDC knife built for business. One of my top folder knives. I cannot find one down side to the handle, blade, or overall set up. Add an un-named Brands custom "Tri-Ad" lock to this model and you have the secret formula to a perfect pocket knife.
However, Spyderco found the near perfect formula on this model. Great product!!!

I go where my Spyder goes! Great knife, great steel, I never go anywhere without it. I have some fun for the 1st 20 seconds of this video then demonstrate the camo pattern in a Hawaii cloud rainforest. Most people talk about the steel, the G10, the super sharp edge, but everyone already knows this is THE knife so I had fun showing the camo pattern hiking in Hawaii.
Best edc knife!

I have mostly Benchmade folders, but this new addition really blows them away. Made in USA with textured G10, CPMS30V & lightweight! For only $120 it's by far one of the best folding EDC/Tactical knives you can get.
