So, I'm looking for something unrelated today, and I stumble upon this item here.
The Buck Paradigm
Two models, the Paradigm Avid (in 13C26 Sandvik steel & Micarta) and the Paradigm Pro (in S30V steel and G10).
I don't know why I'm surprised, but I am. These are very like the new line of Buck Vantage knives, but the Paradigm is assisted open, where the Vantage is all manual.
Evidently they've changed the lock (which is a Good Thing, the old lock was awkward) and are using something new called the Shift Mechanism™ that doesn't interfere with the grip.
On some sites they are evidently in "pre-sale" only, and not actually shipping. Others claim shipping "next business day."
Naturally, I must have one.
Let the drooling begin.
