It’s a beauty for sure! Congrats, I’ll be on the 2nd drop. The only single thing I wish they did different is change the compression lock to flat black (also on pm2 tanto) or pvd.
What an AMAZING Review for a Super-Powerful and All-time BEST Spyderco PM2. REC is Certainly one of the most iconic and highly-respected Dealers. Keep up the awesome work Buddy! ✌🏻😀🙏🏻⭐️💎
I know it’s an older edc queen but one of these days I will add a pm2 to my collection. I have yet to find a compression lock that is perfect for left hand use but the pm2’s wider handle and easier access to the lock mechanism make it tempting. And this looks like a gorgeous version of it!
I hope this is a trend where exclusives aren't just a one-time thing. I've missed out on a few exclusives I wanted, and that's ok. I don't need every knife in the world. It's incredibly nice, though, that REC will offer this one again down the road for those who really wanted one. I think that's a better way. If collectors don't want to wait, that's what the secondary market is for.
That’s a great looking PM2 👍🏼 just subscribed to “River Edge Cutlery” but they are gone. Im glade they are going to keep making them that’s very cool of Rivers Edge Cutlery. I just hate when they sell out in a couple hours then they pop up on EBay for a ridiculous price. Green Canvas Micarta Scales would look amazing on that knife...
Yeah, the colour pallet is so nice that I’m `drooling’ and, if this shipping fiasco was done and dusted I would jump on this straight away. There’ll come a time in future when the opportunity will knock and then I’ll get one 😄👍 I’ve really enjoyed the video `and’ kudos to REC. Once again Jake, thanks for the time you put into making this vid 😄✌️
Jake buddy your words are like a dagger through my heart. Spyderco is one of my favorite company's. I have 6 spyderco knives, but I don't have a Paramilitary2 because I've been waiting for this model. I agree with most everything you said, the knife is the perfect steel & design. I have been following this model from day one & have a reminder at REC. I got no email from them 😡🤬😢😪 . Most mornings I'm online surfing knife news, but today I got my check & had errands to run. I had the money but I missed my golden ticket 🎟. Yes I know they are coming but who knows when fomo bad. Sorry for the whining, I'm glad you got yours it suits you.
That is a great looking knife. Always thought the PM2 was ugly till I had one in my hand. I really like the way REC is doing this exclusive. I wish they all did it like that but doubt that will happen. At least 1 dealer that cares about customers and of course it is in the best state.
i feel like how retailers handle the way they sell the sprints/exclusives is what pisses most people off. I would like to see a hard limit of 1 per address, and if someone is caught cheating by ordering more or using a bot, they get squat. it can be almost a crap shoot even if you logged in are ready to go when they sell out in 30 seconds. maybe look at a lottery for half of the drop. lastly i would like to see a 10-15 day notice of when they drop.
@@beardedgear Thanks Brother Surprised l didn't get one today..I know it will be awhile till they drop again I just set up a third email account just for the next drop hopefully between the 3 accounts I'll get one I agree awesome looking knife I'm also looking for a Malibu if you hear anything 👍👊
Ok dude, you're killing me. Take a Thermacell or something out there for the bugs. You are always getting swarmed. Lol. I do like that you film your videos on hikes though. I love the PM2, but I already have the m390 model and they are pretty much the same steel so I passed. It is great that REC is making this a regular exclusive though. I wish more dealers did this so more people had the opportunity.
Flipping and scalping knives exists as a natural consequence of limited/sprint/exclusive runs. I don't like it. I don't like sprint runs overall but hey, that's the natural consequences of my path in the world so it's a wash. :) I'm glad REC and Spyderco are doing it this way. The blade length is longer than I like for a folder but now I want one of these in part because it looks good and in part because they're not limiting the run and this should be encourage. (I wish I was collecting knives in 2018 because the PM3 in this config would have been perfect.)
Lol, I don’t safe queen any spydercos. So that’s quite the accusation based on clearly knowing nothing about me 🤣 Plus I don’t see any correlation between people collecting sprint runs and Spyderco not having a customization option 😂
I just scored one this is my first knife I’m new to edc and knives so I guess you can say I’m blessed to start my collection with this beauty!
That’s awesome man! It’s a really great way to start! 🙌🏻🙌🏻
Bearded Gear thanks this just opened up a whole new world for me and excited to start this collection 👍
Welcome to the craziness man! It’s a slippery slope haha!
Congrats on the REC Pm2 Man u picked a great knife for sure👍
Brandon Maples I appreciate it very excited to start my knife collection and from what I herd this is a very impressive knife to own
Also I absolutely love REC, how they did this drop was perfect. Such a great business
They are the best of the best 🙌🏻
Dude love the new way you're doing the videos!!
Thanks man! I think I’m gonna make this style a more regular thing 👌🏻
Just got mine for Christmas, love it! Great video!
Great video man! It’s like a passion project for one of the coolest versions ever made. I am so stoked to get mine.
I’m pumped that you got one buddy!
Thank you for actually using this.
I agree. The REC 🦂 and 🥑 are right up my alley for colors. Also I enjoy the PM2 more so then pm3, fits my hand better, size isn't issue for me.
I’m excited for mine! This is a great review, Brother!
Thanks man! Glad you enjoyed it! 🙌🏻
It’s a beauty for sure! Congrats, I’ll be on the 2nd drop. The only single thing I wish they did different is change the compression lock to flat black (also on pm2 tanto) or pvd.
Yeah only blacked out compression lock is the blacked out Yojimbo
Indeed it is a patience game! I just got mine now 🎉
What an AMAZING Review for a Super-Powerful and All-time BEST Spyderco PM2. REC is Certainly one of the most iconic and highly-respected Dealers. Keep up the awesome work Buddy! ✌🏻😀🙏🏻⭐️💎
Awesome first impression man love it. Glad I landed one 🤘🏻
I’m stoked for you buddy! And thanks!
tried to spin my knife like you... lost a leg :D
🤣🤣
Love the clip drop in mate keep it up you knife flaring beast 🤙
Great video and love the how you go over so much detail with each knife. Also, jealous of your knife handling skills haha
Haha thanks buddy! I hope you’re doing well man! 🙌🏻
@@beardedgear Can't complain and learning more about all these different knives. So im happy! Hope you are too and keep up the great content!
Thanks buddy! Yeah I’m doing great!
I really like the testing going on while you’re talking in the background.
Thanks man! I’m gonna try to incorporate shots like that more regularly 👍🏻
SOLD OUT
I have this one inbound, and a matching FDE lynch clip for it. 🥑
Great video! I’m glad I had off of work today to get one for myself!!!
Hi jake!What brand are those pants?Need that also to fit my edc rec🥑looks nice!
Banana Republic 👍🏻
I know it’s an older edc queen but one of these days I will add a pm2 to my collection. I have yet to find a compression lock that is perfect for left hand use but the pm2’s wider handle and easier access to the lock mechanism make it tempting. And this looks like a gorgeous version of it!
I know a few lefties that carry and love the PM2 🙌🏻
Alexander LeBlanc
I know they have made a lefty version...
Not sure if it is still in production?
The lefty ones are still available to my knowledge in the basic s30v version
I hope this is a trend where exclusives aren't just a one-time thing. I've missed out on a few exclusives I wanted, and that's ok. I don't need every knife in the world.

Totally agree! 🙌🏻
Very nice! Do you know if/when they will do the drop again? I really would like to get one!!!
In stock now
Solid review buddy 👊
Thanks man! 🙌🏻
Yes! I'm getting one!!!
Nice dude! 👊🏻
Three yrs later I still want one don’t c them making more hope so tho
Really nice knife. I like my Cruware in gray G10 a bit more. To each his own. Enjoy!
That’s an awesome PM2 for sure!
Gorgeous PM2.!
Missed it this time. Been beating on the bentobox dlc Pm2 m390. Still sharp as shit. Sucks that 2 screws are stripped for clip. Fun
That’s a great looking PM2 👍🏼 just subscribed to “River Edge Cutlery” but they are gone. Im glade they are going to keep making them that’s very cool of Rivers Edge Cutlery. I just hate when they sell out in a couple hours then they pop up on EBay for a ridiculous price.

Really bummed to hear you missed it man, I hope it’s not long until you get one! 🤙🏻
Do they still sell these
That is a great looking knife. Always thought the PM2 was ugly till I had one in my hand. I really like the way REC is doing this exclusive. I wish they all did it like that but doubt that will happen. At least 1 dealer that cares about customers and of course it is in the best state.
Yeah I really appreciate the way they’re doing it as well 🙌🏻🙌🏻
Figures they would release this while I was driving to work today. Been checking it a dozen times a day all week.
Bummed to hear that man! I hope you get one from the next batch 🙏🏻
What was the retail price on this? Thanks man.
I think they were right around $170
I have one on the way! Its coming through 🐌 mail. Are these knives going to be numbered?
No they aren’t numbered
Awesome pocket knife spinning flipping skills
Haha thanks! 🤣
In my opinion the REC Spyderco Avocado Exclusive are the most gorgeous knives in the market.!
It's begging for a bronze deep carry clip :)
Or FDE 😏
Do you know how many they sold on the first run?
I’m not sure yet
That’s one nice looking PM2..
Pm2 vs Para3 I can't choose which one I like better thats why I have both lmao. Great Vid man and sweet REC PM2👍🍺
Thanks buddy! There’s a place for both in my collection for sure 🤘🏻
REC is my favorite, by far!
They’re the best!
When they gonna drop again lol I need one!
Still in stock now
Cool hope I can get one.
I hope so too!
Hey dude. Try out a thermoecel to help with the flying insects.
I don’t know what that is but I’ll look into it, the bugs are brutal right now haha
Those colors are awesome man! PMTan2 being for sale you say?
Yeah it may already be sold now actually, but I’ll let you know if that falls through haha
@@beardedgear I would highly appreciated you letting me know. Thanks!
you should do a knife flipping video! looks great!
Already did! If you search my most viewed videos you’ll see the How To video in like the top 3.
@@beardedgear thanks man! can t wait to try it out!
I honestly only want the Para 3 version because it looks badass! 8CR13MOV? Would not care. Best standard colour scheme by far.
Here I am rewatching waiting patiently for mine to come in 😂😂
Haha I hope it helps 😂
I’m watching this everyday until mine gets delivered.
Haha I’m glad you enjoy it! Hopefully the knife gets delivered quickly! 🙌🏻

I can't wait for mine to come in! Lol now I need to figure out what I'm selling 😂
Haha that’s the way it goes! 🤣 Glad to heat you got one buddy!
Hey Jake from Allstate!!!🤣
WHAT THE FUCKKKKK. Bro your knife flipping is out of this worldddd 👌
Was trying to get this one l signed up for text and everything never got a notification Oh well Nice knife That's cool there making more 👍👊
Bummed you missed it! Hope you’re able to get one on the next drop 🤙🏻
@@beardedgear I just signed up again for emails do u think I'll actually get one?
The email notifications seem to be the way to go, I’m not sure when they’ll be dropping more though 🤷🏼♂️
@@beardedgear Thanks Brother Surprised l didn't get one today..I know it will be awhile till they drop again I just set up a third email account just for the next drop hopefully between the 3 accounts I'll get one I agree awesome looking knife I'm also looking for a Malibu if you hear anything 👍👊
I just dropped my PM2. My leg is now in the other room
🤣

How many handies did it take to get her early ? Haha
🤣🤣🤣
yooooooo. just scored one!!!!!
Nice! Congrats man!
Bearded Gear thank you. saw the post and immediately went to cop! 👍🏼
It’s a good thing you did! Sold out in 23 minutes 😅
Bearded Gear very surprised it even lasted that long tbh. maybe u can give us the stats of how many sold in the first wave and the next 😂
If I find out I’m happy to share!

Sold out. “Noooooooooooooooooooo “
I missed out. I hope I win one in the REC giveaway.
Bummed you missed it. Glad that there’s more on the way though 🙌🏻
Dude not for nothing but I like bearded clam for your name better!!!!!!! Would you mind if I called you the bearded clam?
I have no idea what that even means lol
Two pet hates....
People who keep playing with their bum fluff beard and people who think it's cool to spin knives!
You’re the reason spyderco doesn’t have a customize your knife option. Sprint run safe queens are the worst
Lol, I don’t safe queen any spydercos. So that’s quite the accusation based on clearly knowing nothing about me 🤣 Plus I don’t see any correlation between people collecting sprint runs and Spyderco not having a customization option 😂
Meh. Another PM2...
