Para Military 2 Folding Pocket Knife, PlainEdge | 8.29" Overall Length, 3.47" CPM Cru-Wear Steel Blade, Micarta Handle, Compression, Full-Flat Grind

This is for the Cruwear PM2 with micarta scales: The only thing I can really say is that everything about this knife was perfect. No blade play, blade was centered, and opening and closing are almost effortless. There is no lock stick. The micarta scales are a little more polished than I would like, but they still have a good texture. More companies should offer micarta scales for folding knives. It came scary sharp. This is the sharpest blade out of the box I have ever had. I always put my own edge on a new knife, but I will use the factory edge until it needs touching up. The grind is even and consistent. There is nothing to hint the edge was overheated during sharpening. It isn’t as heavy as you think it would be, and carries decently with the stock clip. I added a Lynch clip and it works much better. I own a fair amount of Spyderco knives (Dragonfly through Shaman) and this is the best knife I have received. I like the keen edges carbon and tool steel take. I have knives in Rex45, K390, and M4. I have a Temperance in Cruwear and I really like it. I’m glad to get a folder in it. I highly, highly recommend this knife if know the steel, want to try the steel, or like micarta scales. It is a beautiful, functional knife.

Its Spyderco What the heck else do I need to say. I am freaky lover of these Para 2's always have been but the linen handles literally made me cry. It's grippy even when sticky....fruit cutting aside this thing was the sharpest blade I've ever bought from Spyderco and the steel they are using is just nuts. Whoever is in the metallurgy department that engineered this alloy I want to hug your neck and slice through the nations in war forever with. The Spydco hole is without question my favorite deployment method in existence.......except the Wave Feature but that deserves an entire six month discussion of reverence on the Ed Wave features. It'll pop open when you need it to no matter if you are a Southpaw or a righty folks. The index finger locking mechanism is still to this day the absolute best I've found. Its easily indexed in total darkness or when your ragged and exhausted. It's form follows functions theres enough weight balanced in the blade and handle to keep it in your hand and not in some one else's. I've run this blade live edged for nearly a month and it's still unimaginably sharp. I shredded cardboard carved bone and it still slices through a fillet minion with butter ease. I took it swimming and neglected the snot out of it, salt water, chlorine, fresh and brine. Its not even a little offended. PREMIUM corrosion resistance is essential for me. Its a living tank of a blade and by far my favorite version of the Spyderco Para 2 line I've tried. I've had clones but the authentic is worth every penny if you can swing it. If not you'd be shocked what you can get from other versions out there. Most durable steel I've yet had. I've used the Para 2's-3's in nearly every form of crisis and normal comfort and they have become an intimate part of my ever day carry. Can't say it enough I love this blade and as I have for mannnny years advocated the Spyderco products.

CPM Cru-Wear Steel is a joy to have as it cuts all day and stays sharp, and when you need to, it is very easy to re-sharpen it to where you want it. I always get a good positive lock up with the blade, never a problem, and it just doesn't seem to weigh anything in my pocket. Cru-Wear also doesn't seem to rust or get a patina on it, at least mine hasn't, and I live in Florida, not too far from salt water fishing at anytime. That being said, I am one of those "clean my tools up" at the end of the day people, so it always has a thin film of full synthetic air tool oil on it, and it doesn't stay in the bowl with my key fob and wallet as long as some of my other knives might. The scales are linen micarta, like the feel of an old pair of jeans. For me, they hold up better than most other types I've had. Some "micarta" scales that others sell are as hard and slick as marble, but they were technically micarta from the process use to make them, so you need to check up on the different brands on one of the knife blogs or reviews. The only "thing" with a Para Military 2 is it will be a bit long in the pocket, so I don't carry much more than a car fob in the same pocket, but that's why you buy this knife anyway, for it's size. I bought mine right when it dropped, and other than changing the angle and edge to a very steep chisel grind, and no second bevel, the only wear is the staining of the scales to a darker look, which you can clean back to the "brand new" look I've heard, but I like the darker look because it's a working knife, not something to collect dust on a display shelf. I have a picture from when the Para Military was newish, and I did a side by side with a Spyderco Tenacious with a M4 steel blade, and G10 scales. Don't have a clue why I didn't take a picture with the blades open, but that's life. Just a side note, the Spyderco Para Military 2 with the Cru-Wear Steel Blade and Premium Micarta scales has sold so well, and was the first for Spyderco to have both together in a production knife, that the good folks at Spyderco and their hard core customers dubbed it the" Cru-Carta", and Spyderco has made a huge investment in a bunch of their other standard knives, with the same winning combination of Micarta scales with Cru-Wear blades for the new "stock" knives dropping in 2025, and those new knives are selling just as fast as the one that started it all, your Spyderco Para Military 2, so yeah, it's a great knife for work, or to have just for show. Remember, have fun, but always be safe when you're doing it.

I’ve owned several quality folders over the years, and the Spyderco Paramilitary 2 CruWear Micarta C81MPCW2 is easily one of the best combinations of materials and design Spyderco has produced. Right out of the box the knife arrived razor sharp with excellent fit and finish. The blade centering is perfect, the action is smooth, and the compression lock engages solidly with no blade play. Spyderco’s ergonomics really shine here—this knife feels incredibly secure and comfortable in hand. The CPM-CruWear steel is a fantastic choice for a working knife. It strikes a great balance of toughness, edge retention, and ease of sharpening. For anyone who actually uses their knives rather than just collecting them, CruWear is a superb performer. The canvas micarta handles are another highlight. They feel warm and natural in the hand and provide excellent grip. Compared with standard G-10, the micarta adds a premium touch and should develop a nice patina over time. Overall this is a near-perfect EDC knife: lightweight for its size, incredibly capable, and built with top-tier materials. If you like the Paramilitary 2 platform, the CruWear/micarta version is a fantastic upgrade. Highly recommended.

By far, the sharpest knife I’ve ever owned! The fit and finish of this knife is beyond compare! The action is silky smooth with absolutely no “lock stick”. So sharp, out of the box, you can shave with it! The micarda handles have a very pleasant feel and look absolutely amazing! Highly recommended!!

I've always hated Spyderco knives. I hate the stupid hole. I hate how the stupid blade looks like a stupid triangle. I hate the stupid logo. I hate the stupid tacticool bro fanbase. I've always seen people talk about how good the pm2 was and rolled my eyes. Enjoy your stupid holey triangle knife, bro. Until the other day. I've seen 100 videos talking about how cool the pm2 is or how it's a great edc and never wanted one. Then for whatever reason.. I did. I decided to buy one. I'd hate it, return it, feel justified. Cruwear? Micarta? Sure. I'll try it. Sign me up. Let me tell you... this is a nearly perfect knife. The hole still looks stupid, but it is functional as hell, offering myriad opening options both practical and fidgety. The triangle blade still looks stupid but provides ergonomics to get a lot of grip and control on the knife. Combined with the handle, this knife feels both nimble and strong. The logo still looks stupid and I can't do anything about the tacticool bros, but.. dang this knife is really good. I was wrong. Fantastic knife. The only legitimate complaint is the clip. Idk who the clip is designed for but for me it was awful. Too stiff, not deep carry, and who the heck defaults to tip down in 2026? Still, easy fix as there are myriad clip and other customization options for this knife. Oh, it's comfortable, fits nicely in the hand, and light for what it is. Anyway. Yeah. Fantastic knife. Been carrying it a couple weeks now and no complaints. Got my personal preferences I like carrying the bug out more (almost no weight, completely disappears even in athletic shorts) but the pm2 is overall a far superior knife. Idk if I'm a Spyderco fan or not, but I'm not a hater anymore, and definitely a pm2 fan. Give it a try.

Hands down the best pocket knife I've ever owned. Wicked sharp, comfortable in the hand, and the one-handed lock release is brilliant. The size of the blade is just right. The steel is just so good. The handle could have a bit more grip, but I won't fault it on that alone. Still a 10/10 EDC pocket knife.

The Spyderco Para Military 2 with CPM CruWear steel is an absolute standout. The blade has that perfect balance of toughness and edge retention, making it reliable for heavy tasks

Ormai ho diversi coltelli, anche dello stesso marchio, compreso il Paramilitary 2 con manico in G10 e lama in CPM S45VM che già trovo fantastico. Questo è una chicca, anche se va trattato rispetto al precedente con un attimo più di cura. Ma.... la lama è affilata come un rasoio e tiene il filo (occhio che questo acciaio non è inossidabile come l'SV45M, vd sopra) , il manico è di un micarta di grande qualità, al tatto quasi "setoso", e prende con il tempo una colorazione unica in base alla mano di chi lo impugna. E' robusto il giusto, ovviamente non ci si può fare del batoning, ma è un coltello da usare, come consiglia chi lo ha inventato. E' costoso, ma se dovessi scegliere un solo coltello (bello) da avere, probabilmente sceglierei questo. Lo raccomando ad occhi chiusi...

Das Messer ist von sehr guter Qualität dem Aussehen und dem Gefühl nach. Die Lieferung erfolgte schnell über "La Poste" und DHL. Das Messer ist nicht vollständig rostfrei.

Tre stelle solo per il prezzo osceno a cui viene venduto, quasi il doppio a cui viene venduto in America. Il coltello di per sé è fantastico, eccezionale ergonomia, uno dei migliori sistemi di lock e la lama è in uno dei migliori acciai per coltelli EDC.

Palesemente un falso,anche fatto male!!! Ne scatola nè corredo, manicatura e acciaio diversi dall'annuncio.....un controllo più accurato sarebbe consigliabile!!!
