Spyderco · MGE Exclusive Para Military 2 — Teal G-10, DLC S90V C81GPTLBK2 · CPMS90V · Blackout hardware Condition — unused
I bought this and never used it. Never carried, never cut, never sharpened. The factory edge is untouched and the DLC coating is unmarked. It has been stored, not pocketed.
An MGE exclusive run of the Para Military 2: teal G-10 scales, a DLC-coated CPM S90V blade and blackout hardware throughout. MGE described it as the first time they had run a teal G-10 variant. It is sold out and is not part of Spyderco’s standard catalogue, so it is not something you can simply reorder.
The knife
The Para Military 2 takes the Military model and compresses it into a pocketable size without giving up the cutting geometry. The Compression Lock is the reason people keep buying it: a high-strength lock that closes one-handed, with your fingers nowhere near the edge.
This run uses CPM S90V in place of the standard production steel. It is one of the highest-vanadium stainless steels Spyderco puts in a production folder — it holds a working edge far longer than S30V, at the cost of being slower to sharpen. Paired with the DLC coating, the whole knife reads matte black against the teal.
The textured G-10 scales carry Spyderco’s four-position hourglass clip, so it will ride tip-up or tip-down, left or right. Made in Golden, Colorado.
