Are you on the fence about the Spyderco Paramilitary 2? In this video I'm going to convince you that it's one of the BEST knives out there! I really think you should pick yourself up a PM2, and here are my arguments why.

The compression lock is not like a backwards liner lock. The compression lock actually has a spot milled into the blade that it interacts with, unlike a liner lock that just springs into the way of the blade and you move it out of the way to close. Compression is stronger than your typical liner lock.

This is now my fav channel for knives. Glad i found it. The cut tests are brilliant.

I love my PM2. You took yours to the next level. Looks great.

by far the most classy PM2 I have ever seen. Beautiful mod.

I picked up two today. One is Black G10 and the other is digital camo G10. I have other models from Spyderco, but these are the first PM's for me. Very impressed. Great video!

Thanks for the video. This is the next knife I plan to get.

spyderco legitimately has the best factory production heat treat whether it's 8cr13mov or s90v and I'd challenge anyone to find another production brand that does that better and more consistently than spyderco, awesome video man! I've been a Para 3 guy for a minute but now I think I need to get one of these..also the shaman..I should definitely get a shaman

Ha ! This is absolutely a knife everyone should own (Paramilitary 2 *or* Para3, depending on hand size). I can still remember the time that these were *So Hard* to obtain because they sold out quickly & Spyderco didn't have their factory outlet expanded yet. They were like a Hinderer or Sebenza. Always out of stock. And this was just the standard black or digital camo s30v version. Now they are readily available, which is great. I still have a small stash of 3 or 4 new in box O.G s30v Paramilitary 2's from them. Never had any issue with my very first one.. after years & years of use. It's a knife that will last over a decade. My blade has shrunk a bit from sharpening & the DLC is worn nicely.. but it still performs flawlessly with s30v. Great knife for sure !! I always recommend these & some pivot lube if someone has a $150-200 budget (spyderco used Militec-1 lubricant on it's U.S.A manufactured knives in the mid 00's.. so they probably still do. Great lubricant. Especially for a PM2.)

Sick tats and beautiful blade dude.

I recently bought a leather, belt holster/scabbard for my 4 PM2’s allowing for handy carry & quick-draw. Luv the knives, luv the holster.

I enjoyed your story. I just got the Para 3 45VM. I'm in love ❤️. The Para 2 is next I think. I'm new to Spyderco.

Great video. I like your customization in titanium. Subscribed.

I agree with everything you said love my PM2 great review i just subscribed thanks bro😊

Just to help solidify ur point on how awesome the pm2 is, the other liner locks use the pushing plate itself to hold the blade open and to collapse the blade, the compression lock doesnt , it actually allows a bigger piece of metal to hold the blade open. Which proves that its safer. Great huh? I love mine also.

That CME is definitely the way to go. Great video.

Nice customization. My first PM2 arrived today, CPM Cruwear with canvas micarta. Being in Australia, the supplies are limited as getting folder's through customs can be risky for the individual, the state I live in requires folders to need two hands to open...

I ran into your channel and subscribed. I’m relatively new enthusiast, collecting for almost 3 years. But I jumped in deep water. I think my collection is around 135 knives. I’m what you would call a “collection collector”. That is, if there is a particular knife or designer that I really like, I purchase several. I love the PM2. I picked up 8 each with different steels. My favorite knife maker and knife to date is the Chaves Redencion. I own 10 Chaves. At any rate, I’ll be watching.👍🤘

awesome knife!!! I love my pm2

I have the PM2 I love it, I have the camo G10 with black coated s45vn . I think the only thing I’d change is the clip. I love the grip.

Great points. Could you time stamp each point?

I have the pm2 and the pm-3 and I carry the three as the blade is just a more friendly blade size-wise

After some research I chose the dlt exclusive pm2 in cruwear in burple. Great knife but,The para 3 lw with awt scales is still my favorite.

I just received my DLC coated Wharncliffe CTS-XHP blade with Orange G-10 scales. A Cutlery Shoppe exclusive version. Oh and it came from them with flawless centering and pivot action. I also have a blacked out S45vn Para 3. I think I need to buy another knife for a while unless someone starts selling a Wharncliffe Para3

I just ordered a CPM-M4 PM2. Originally I ordered a magnacut Hogue deka but I guess the sale I was buying from oversold and I didn't buy quick enough so I started looking around for knife models and steels I wanted to try and just do happen SMKW had what they called jungle wear fat carbon PM2 with M4 and that checks 2 box's for me.

Sick merch!

👌🏻 One of my most carried

My blade bounces off the stop like that and it's annoying, I'm used to the Manix which snaps shut and doesn't bounce. I can avoid it with a light close and quick lock press, like a button, but it's still annoying, I like the PM 2 but love my Manix 2's.

Have your tried the PM2 Ultra from Blades We Love? Button lock mod :)

I don't rotate my pm2 anymore , it's always in my pocket and I just rotate my other edcs , my personal all time favorite folder.

I’ve just bought a „new“ pm2 with s30v, is the S45VN that much better than the s30v?

Am getting one !

You convinced me man. Great job.. You bastard ..!!!! Now I have to drop more money on Spyderco.. Great looking knife though !! It's a like for me.

Like my PM2 but I’m left handed so there’s the bummer. I usually just carry it right handed

What can it do beyond Endura? How heavy, bulk, in pocket.

Where do you buy your knives from? Back when I was collecting, I’d go to Chesapeake Knife & Tool, but they closed down. The nearest shop to my house is over thirty minutes away, and they’re super expensive. I got a PM2 from Amazon, which I found out is a terrible place to buy from due counterfeits. I inspected it thoroughly, and am 99% sure it’s legit. Anyway, do you have any online retailer suggestions?

Bro, how do you get the action so slick? Are there bearings in it?

who makes that bigger line lock safety you have in there?

I KNOW they're great knives... but I absolutely HATE that duck bill blade shape. So I bought a Smock for my first Spyderco and love everything about it. Removed the 2nd detent, putting Skiff bearings in. Then probably Metonboss frag Ti scales and custom clip. Nice video tho.

How did you get yours to drop close so easy I have a pm2 with copper flytanium scales and it won’t drop at all

Your knife looks sick I think I'm sold I been stuck on microtech am my halo 6 buy I think I'm digging Manul life an u can open quietly if needed .what other knives do you favor

Just got my first Spyderco today, been ogling the Para 2 Crucarta for quite some time and finally found one at a fairly good price. DAMN the action on this thing, straight outta the box, silky smooth. Blade centering is spot on and the factory edge is better than expected by far.

IMHO anyone with a vague interest should definitey buy a PM2. As their first Spydrco. Becasue every company has a signature product/model. For Spyderco it's the PM22. For Benchmade it's the 940 Osbourne... ...from there it's up to the us where we go from the PM2...do we stick with Spydrco and buy more? Or do you end up hating the design for whatever the reason?? :) Everyone has their list of wants in a folder's design. For me one of the items is having a "full metal linder" and maybe a metal back spacer. Soemthing overlooked by many "knife heads" or guys like me with a casual interest. Why most Benchmade knives dn't interest me. ..besides their high asking prices for what I feel is a "lesser" brand because most models lack "metal liners/ful". ...e.g. the Bugout...obvious flex in the scales...looks cheap...is there still flex in the alu scales on standard 940's? Shrug...

Just bought a crucarrta pm2

my wallet is side eyeing me rn...

Are those flytanium scales?

I like Ganzo

The only thing not changed is the blade

In Australia they are almost $400, how is that a reasonable price

Maxamet pm2s available atm.

Actually man, the compression lock is a lot stronger than a liner lock because it uses the crossbar as a standard liner. Lock does not have a crossbar.

Where did you get the quick release, the black small thing? Thanks

You left the picture in the middle of the screen during the video

lol, did you tattoo over cuss words on your knuckles?

Great knife platform if you’re a collector, and/or a light duty edc user. Horrible knife if you use your knives hard and like ergonomics.

The S90V version is a real slicer. I'm in the process of tricking it out!

Too bulky

intro almost made me have a seizure
