I lost my Paramilitary 2 about a year ago and i am thinking about buying a new Spyderco. I can’t choose between these 3. What do you guys think?

All three knives are good, but each has unique qualities that set them apart. If you’re leaning toward another PM2, you should go for it and explore the different steels available for that knife.
I have all three. For edc I would recommend the pm2 or regular size Manix 2 with a slight edge to Regular size manix 2. The military 2 I have feels a bit like a pocket sword, I have the s110v in it and normally use it just around the house for food prep. The manix 2 xl is big as well but a great knife.
The way you have the photos ordered is correct. #1 best #2 is second best and #3 is weakest link. Too long and narrow. I don’t like it. #2 has plenty of grip though.
