Hello!
I bought my son both a Paragee and a Camillus EDC - both of DDR design and both very nice knives. The fit and finish on the Paragee was definitely better than that of the EDC, though the blade steel could have been better if 154CM, IMO. The feel of the Paragee and design are also superior.
Based strictly upon the price point and quality of the Paragee, what I do not get is why Outdoor edge folders are not wildly popular. If the Magna and Impluse are anywhere the value of the Paragee, it would seem to me that they would be huge sellers.
My only guess is that marketing and distribution might play some role in this puzzle. Anyone else have an idea? Do higher grade steels need to be used?
Anyway, a mystery to me.
