Man, hearing that PM2 price from 2 years ago really hurts. I just bought my first PM2 a few months back (Black S45VN Camo G-10) and it was over $185
I hear ya, inflation is out of this world
I have one don't have a use for it. It's heavy copper. Where should I sell it
@@michelemcchesney2040 You could just change the scales. G10 or titanium. Anything is lighter than copper.
Same here lol. Still about the cheapest high-end folder with S45VN though. Tax and shipping was just under 200$ Blade HQ still no regrets.
bro i got a cruwear exclusive one and it came out over $200 after tax. i’ve gotten to where i ONLY buy exclusives bc they’re always cheaper than base models. like i have a green 20cv para 3 for 160, and a pink s45vn one for 150, and the BASE MODEL plain black para 3 is $175 which makes zero sense.
2 years later they come standard in S45vn. I had to replace my pm 2 because I have a teenage son who lost mine 🤬
anyway..I got the same exact pm2.. camo pattern with a black coated blade. Closer to $200 these days, but came in S45VN vs my old S30V. I also noticed they blackened not only the liners but the gimping by the compression lock. Not a huge deal, but a nice touch.
I got the same sprint but in the parra3, I love the way the scales look, but my pocket hated them. I upgraded to a set of copper flytanium scales. Love it. Also picked up a new pm2 in s45vn, it's the new standard steel 07/03/21
I was going to ask this so thank you. My pm2 I just bought is in s45vn, wasn't sure if that was standard or not, I've seen it in s30v too
I got the new Para 3 in this format and I absolutely love the texture of the handle! It almost feels sticky in the hand.
Great review.I would love a Spyderco Shaman with S45VN and these same scales.That would be awesome!
I have two production versions of PM2 in S45VN. Both in black G10, one satin and one DLC coated. I also bought a Maxamet version and I still have my old S30V in digi-camo and DLC. If I didn't sell my S110V, that would have made five PM2s in my collection. Funny thing is, the PM2 is not my favorite Spyderco. It's the Shaman and I've only got one of those.
My first pm2 is on it's way. I went with the bento box m390 but I live in east Texas so humidity is crazy here.
Ive had that one awhile! Great knife
I'm waiting for more performance testing with S45VN before I come to any conclusion about it. Since S35VN is good enough for me, I'm not itching to change yet. Also I miss the days of a standard PM2 going for $125 - my sprint run M390 PM2 was $150 three years ago and now that's the base price :P
This is my 5th PM. I am on the fence with S45VN; not sure it is a game changer. The scales are by far my favorite on PM2s.
Have heard Spartan will be moving to S45VN relatively soon. Have heard talk about CRK doing the same, but that seems much further out 🤷🏻♂️.
CRK should be moving soon to s45vn soon since i just bought another s35vn....every time i get something the new version comes out lol
Haha. Like a rain dance? Thank you for single handedly moving up their timeline :).
Haha you guys make me laugh just to let you know I can make it rain all I have to do is wash my car
And crk is now using s45vn in there inkosi for sure I just got a small inkosi made in May that was using s45vn
Great video! I Bought a Para 2 3 days ago. Been looking for one for a minute and just happened to get an email from Cabela’s that they had 5 in stock at a store near me. It’s about an hours ride and im lucky I paid for it in advance and had them hold it because mine was the last available when I picked it up.
It’s a sprint run Para 2 fortunately, Black G-10 scales and S45VN blade.
Wasn't the black G10 with S45vn just the standard PM2 8 months ago too? Or did I miss a sprint lol
@@YerZippersDown I'm not sure, I have the black g10 with black coated blade in s45vn and it's just a standard model
@@chimchu3232 me too
I must admit I'm the only person that has over 100 knives and not one PM2. I do love my PM3. The Forest Green scales are outstanding. Love to find them after market and add them to my PM3. I'll have to look up some cut test on the S45VN and see what it's all about
I'll be receiving one of these in the coming weeks, and my plan is to order scales to swap. If you're not in a hurry I can sell them to you.
Get back with us knifeaholics in a year or two…..:)
Love the scales on this one. Great steel ! Still a great all-round edc knife. Good review , thanks for sharing .👍
Agreed. Definitely a better pair of scales than the s35vn run 😂
There is going to be a Para3 in s45vn soon as well
I got my Paramilitary 2 is the mail today ...I'm not a steel snob but ive always liked S30V ... The online description of the knife i ordered was Para 2 digicam satin blade S30V ... .We' ll I looked at the blade and instead of S30V it said CPM S45VN which before today i had never heard of ..I first thought shit guess i'll send it back ,, but after looking online it seems like maybe its a little bit of an upgrade,,,,guess ill keep it ..
Sprints don't come back. Dealer Exclusives sometimes do. I believe once other manufacturers use it more, this S45VN Pm2 and Pm3 will be more sought after. I think this one got lost in the mix of all the new Spydercos. Have a good one
We will definitely see more S45VN pm2s, and likely with this new pattern in some cases. But ya this exact variant might not come back. Thats true 👍
It looks like the vanilla PM2 (black g-10, satin blade) is now in s45vn (see Spyderco's website and Blade HQ.) I'm wondering when the standard blackout model will be updated. It seems like this change has been on the DL and I've only noticed on the websites but haven't seen any advertising or videos about it.
Just got a s45vn Hinderer xm-18 spanto, need to put a better edge on it but hoping it's a sturdy work horse for me.
I do like the texture. I've had a standard all black PM for quite a while, but never carry it. I'm considering selling it. 🤷♂️
Living next to the ocean, I want as much corrosion resistance as I can get and still get good usability.
LC200N is stain proof not just stain less, it also holds a very very good edge ! It is not cheap tho... the spydiechef runs $235+ .. but thatd be an awesome steel for living next to the ocean... but im partial to Titanium Frame-lock's. Vanax super clean, LC200N and H-1 will all be nearly rust proof.
On a budget... Buck makes a boat anchor of a knife (7.2oz) in 20CV for like $97.95 @ DLTTrading.com, 20CV will have incredible edge holding, is very stainless and Buck has one of the best heat treatments in the business, along with an awesome Hollow Grind that is very slicey, top notch knife all the way around, with the exception of being almost half a pound... but they are very beautiful knives, especially the nickel bolsters and Rosewood on the 20CV model....
If all else fails, I always suggest Spyderco PM2's, Manix II's and (if you want something incredible) the Shaman in S30V, Benchmade 940's, Griptilian's & Bugout's (if ultralight is your thing) in S30V and the Buck 110 & 112 Slim Pro's in S30V... lots and lots of great choices for almost any budget
@matty d idk man, benchmade has sold an aweful lot of them and still do. all of these paper thin behind the edge knives are great slicers thats not arguable... i guess I was saying to a general person, not to a knife guy, you know what I mean? like a Sebenza or a Spyderco Gayle Bradley 2 is the Ferrari, and the Benchmade 940 is the Chevrolet 1500 5.3L V8 crew cab.... I'm going to reccomend the truck to everyone, and reccomend the Ferrari to only a few lol... but lets be honest we'd all rather have the Ferrari... I mean ive carried a large Inkosi Insingo for like 2 years, but still rotate knives. that plain Chris Reeve is my golden goose, but i recommend his knives to very few, if its in the budget, they dont disappoint... but there's a reason I will only ever have 1. sorry for rambling
bottom line : I believe people need a collection, from sharpened prybar to atom slicer....
but i understand most people will use 1 more than anything else. so when I think of an "only knife I'll ever own" i want it bulletproof, tough and with a good warranty. benchmade warranty is the best in the game, and yes 940's are thick, with thick grinds, but S30V can be a little chippy so i want to see a little thickness for a lifetime knife, its no ColdSteel Trailmaster. I got a ColdSteel Trailmaster in 0-1 steel that measures in between 5/16" and 3/8" on the spine lol. thing is ridiculous!!
what would you reccomend? i would add the ColdSteel Code-4 Clip point too that list of reccomendables ! $80, S35VN, thin behind the edge, a Tri-Ad lock and aluminum handles.
I wonder how the cpm 45 compairs to M4 and Maxamet
Anyone notice the pm2 forest scales are insanely uncomfortable? If you hold it tight it's so blocky it hurts
This particular sprint run is sold out. Bummer. I have the PM2 with blurple G10. I like the color but hate the texture and it is shredding my pockets. I'll be in the market soon for some aftermarket scales for my PM2. Without a doubt, the PM2 has become one of my all-time favorites and so I don't mind maybe dropping some extra cash on some aftermarket scales.
One in my hand richt now i like it better then the stock one,if one thing in the steel is better then s35 vn i think it has toothier carbides i found s35vn always a dificult steel to get real sharp.
It probably won’t come back in that configuration. Sprints don’t , dealer exclusives can though.
I managed to get one of these guys in the seconds sale a few weeks ago, it was a steal! 😄
Still love the PM2 but I might like this more.
Not really a PM2 fan, I’m more of a Manix 2 fan, which is the only Spyderco I own! I am however really interested in the S45VN, and I hope they use it on other models! I would also love to see other companies get ahold of the steel and use it!
Just bought a standard pm2 in s45vn for 216 € that's a lot of money(240$)... And it might be the best price on the market...
I've seen them even going for 245 € (270$)
Madness... and maxamet models for 363 €
Cool knoif. Does it cut things?
It sure does 👍
Now a standard PM2 with black scales is $171.
complaining about 175 dollar price tag... where i live they ask € 213.50 (253 us dollar) for the same knife
This version feels a little flimsy more so than the peel ply, not the scales I mean
The scales were a bit too rough for my pocket so I gifted this knife to a friend.
You’re a good friend
Mine didnt come centered
Murderd out
Pretty sure s60v has the worse edge retention could be wrong i think i also saw that on knofe nerd
If S45VN is easier to machine and sharpen, and companies are able to replace S30V or S35VN as a base model steel without a cost increase it's a win/win for manufacturing and the end user. If it's going to be just another gimmick to sell more knives marketed as the latest, greatest thing at a higher price that will be disappointing.
Thats whats been happening for years. Thats pretty much what happens with any market. Cell phones are a great example. It is what it is 🤷♂️
@@metal_complex True to a certain extent. I think people in the knife community are aware that this isn't really a major advancement in performance though compared to other already available options. I just personally haven't seen much excitement about it.
The difference with phones is that you actually lose functionality after no longer getting software updates. I think the comparison about people spending ridiculous amounts to get the newest trendy thing is accurate.
👍
👍🇨🇿
It is no good if you can’t buy it.
Just because you can't buy it now doesn't mean it's gone forever.
@@metal_complex they're all over /r/knife_swap right now, I've seen about 6 pop up in about 36h
wtf,everytime u post video, on a knife, its out of stock
Most of the knives I discuss are available. However, just because a knife isn't available doesn't mean I won't discuss it. Expect this to be the case periodically 👍
2024 + Bidenomics = $269.88
S45Vn sucks. Js
There is no link for knifesteelnerds info…..
