According to tests performed by Shawn Houston and Outpost 76, these are run at 64 Hrc!! Which makes them absolute beasts! Finally ordered mine today, can’t wait! I also want a Native 5 Salt with Magnacut. Spyderco is a really good brand. 🕷🕸

I'm gonna get one of these eventually. The cru-carta one like yours. Thanks for posting!

One of those designs that has really been a staple of the knife world for a long time. Only great knives achieve that level of fan fare for this long

My favorite. Like you, I have been carrying daily for many years (or decades) and have an extensive collection with some knives costing 3 - 5 times what the P2 does. Since adding this to my collection, I’ve found it in my pocket more and more, to the point where it is in my pocket over 90% of the time. Even owning several Spyderco P2s, this particular model (Cruwear Micarta) is THE one I carry most. (In this category, I’ve got to throw some love out there to my ZT 0770cf)

Bought this knife on Friday and its great. Love the steel, micarta, and larger compression lock tab. Action super smooth.

Agreed; the PM2 is simply a modern classic. I don’t think its form and function will ever become obsolete, and it’ll be around long after trendier designs have been forgotten.

Literally just bought the exact same knife 3 days ago… it’s amazing.

My fav knife channel

Good looking version.

I have the CutleryShoppe exclusive with an XHP DLC coated Wharncliffe blade and orange G10 scales, it's very noice.

Just bought this same knife to replace my PM2 Tanto which was stolen. I miss that PM2 tanto, but this one is cool too, although the flex on the micarta near the backlock makes it feel a bit cheaper. Also picked up my first Shaman, and wow, it's amazing too!

I just got my first Spyderco and this is it I hope I made the right choice that mannix was really talkin to me and I'm a Benchmade guy so I love the axis lock

Pick up a pm2 in s90v awesome knife

Really great presentation bro. You made perfect sense for the average guy who's surrounded with all kinds of other options in the same class but cost a ton more. Let's remember, our economy is falling apart. There has never been a more important time to spend smart. Your logic made sense to me. Bravo Para 2.

When it comes to sharpening, How's the hardness of the steel, Is it easy to sharpen or a little challenging?

I gotta snag the Military 2 Crucarta when it drops. Hopefully soon

Truth.

I ordered 1 about few hour ago it was a good deal.Hope it will hold the edge just like my Adamas folder in Cruwear

I've watched this video many times over the past week as I'm torn between getting the PM2 with Micarta or G10. I'll be using it a lot for food prep. I absolutely love the Micarta with Cruwear, but I'm wondering if a PM2 with S45VN would be better around water, food etc. I'd love to hear your thoughts. Great video by the way.

How has the micarta held up? Everyone complained about the side with the compression lock being weak but doesn’t look like it would break

as someone who's just getting into the hobby, where is the best place/site to buy it? they can be expensive, do some sites have discounts or deals?

Just ordered the manix 2 same configuration for 180 on Rivers edge Cutlery. Available now

It will ALWAYS be a solid EDC choice

If u live in a state that requires 3" blade then get manix. Otherwise, get pm2

It's an icon. All other knives are compared to it. Obviously, the knives like Koenig, CRK and Hinderer are more expensive for reasons other than form and function.

Great channel. I don't really see the point of a carbon steel small folder with edge retention worse than S30v. Just IMO. Not that it's terrible...

Disagree with the engaging with customers aspect. I want the PM2 in Tanto. They did it as a special release for Blade HQ and never met the demand since.

Nobody owns your comparison knives?😮

Holds up one of the best combinations of materials in a knife from one of the best knife brands in history "iS tHiS sTiLl gOoD". Fucking obviously. Knives made 20 years ago are still a solid choice for EDC. It's either clickbait (probably, cause people are shameless sellouts) or people are so spoiled with new products that they could somehow consider a Cruwear Spiderco to be a bad choice. Stupid either way.

Hey man I was wondering if you could help me? I've been trying to decide if I should buy the pm2 in brown micarda and cruwear steel or the manix 2 xl in brown micarda and cruwear steel? Which one should I buy?
