2nd BayouShooter Spyderco Sprint Run

[JadeRaven]

Why would a paramilitary be unlikely?

And can't we do something different? A bunch of us still have the old knife, want something different. Same thing, or substantially similar with different colors seems like a waste of time. I'm sure there are plenty who would buy it no matter what, but I'm also sure many will pass because they got in on the last one and don't see the need for another.

Dave, you know what might make be a good knife run? Something like this horizontal one you inspired me to get. I love this thing in my EDC, and everyone; and I do mean everyone that sees it, thinks it is very neat!

When I explain to them why "I" have it, they say; "I can see the need for that!"

There aren't many people that are willing to shell out $200+ for a fixed blade.

Because Paramilitary 2's are not made as often as the Endura & Delica models.

Just a small note:
Most people bought the first knife because of the Emerson Wave feature. Spyderco is only licensed by Emerson to use the Wave feature on the Delica and Endura models.

I'm with you. Something Different, but I'll still buy just because probably. I actually dislike the wave feature, and still bought 2 first time.
Also there was a hefty discount offered to forum members and they were nowhere near the msrp that had people shying away first run.

I don't understand how production frequency is an issue, since this would be a custom run.

I also didn't like the wave feature but also bought two

If we could get something like a PM2 I'd pick up another couple knives. If it's another endura wave, I think I'd pass.

Same color scheme is great, I love the black blade and olive/green.

 

[JadeRaven]

Also, as far as costs go, I'm sure there would be enough demand from non-bayoushooter spyderco collectors to sell this knife out quickly. Other PM2 sprint runs sellout quick.

Their loss! I love this thing! And since my life may depend on it one day, it was well worth it. The sheath is not too shabby either!

I'm not going to go into detail, but it does matter. I'd be happy to let you or anyone else take up the effort to get the ball rolling.

 

[SicilianSecrets]

I'm in for one.

I'd be in for either of those.

Any chance we could get one side purple, the other gold?

I'd prefer a serrated blade this time around, simply because I have my share of plain edge knives.

 

[XD45ACP]

I'd be down for a couple PM2's.

Personally, I would like the same color scheme in a different knife rather than the same knife in a different color.

The difference in retail price for the PM2 and Endura is ~$70, with the discount (40% last time) that's only $40 difference.
If we get the same 40% discount the PM2 should be ~$120. That's in the range most members wanted last time around.

This is something I do agree with. Regardless of the knife, the price will be similar to the street price of the same model knife. Every sprint run has a discount code. The code is usually only given to whomever the sprint run is for, that way it discourages people wanting to flip the knife for profit (even though it still happens).

PM2 in same color as the last Endura would be cool

 

[cajun_64]

I would be up for 1

Purple and gold for the win.

 

[Cochise]

My only demand would be a plain edge.
My request would be to keep the black and od color scheme.
My suggestion is that we make it the yojimbo 2 or the paramilitary 2.

 

[bsoileau24]

I am in for 1 as I stated in the other thread. Side note I like turtles.

I can't keep up with which thread is which.
While I'd love a BS Yojimbo I think it's a pipe dream, and I have one on order already.
I'm in for anything with a plain edge, still gonna hold out hope for a H1Pacific Salt black blade, handle color to be determined.

Dear God please do not let there be a run of purple and gold handled Spyderco knives ever.

I'd be down with either style. I dispise serrated blades. I don't think Spyderco will stray from their current blade steel line up for the Endura or PM2. I like collecting their sprint runs, and don't know of any that they have had trouble moving. There are LOTS sprint collectors.
