I feel like my knives in S90V are stronger than my S110V. They certainly are harder to sharpen. M390 is a bit easier to maintain than M390....IMHO. I just put my backup NIB S110V Millie for sale....and as soon as that sells, I'll try and grab a M390 PM2. I try not to buy anything from BB because I t...

Any CF M390 PM2s on deck?

And in my experience....S90V is much harder than S110V. Have both blurple PM2 and Millie. S90V can last forever without needing to sharpen it. Just some leather every so often keeps a hair cutting edge.....IMHO.

KW is doing an S90V CF Millie?? This I did not know! An older S90V Millie is crazy expensive.

Since KW is doing a CF S90V, I'll go with the M390 PM2.

ETA on the KW S90V MILLIE?

M390 and S90V are two of my favorite steels and am most familiar with them....I have some pieces in M4 as well, but find that M4 is more prone to rust. I have several PM2 and Millies......I had always carried a Millie, but over time I started carrying a PM2 more often for some reason. Now, I usually...

Ugh.....I don't think I can afford both so it's one or the other. I have a backup NIB S110V Millie I can sell? What to do? :eek:

Barkeeper's Friend?

Some slight rust is starting to build up on the spine of my M4 PM2. What can I use to white it off.....and what can I apply on it to protect it in the future? A thin coat of Vaseline? I usually only use stainless blades and never had this problem before. If it gets bad, going to switch out the blad...

Great info!! Thanks guys!

All good! Learned something new....

It's not bad at all....barely noticeable. It's not even rust in color, it's light black but you can feel it. I was hoping I could just use some kind of compound to whipe it off. It's very minimal, but want to address it before it progresses...

Interesting! Thx again!

Gotcha....thx!

Sandpaper....really?? That won't scratch the finish at all?

Well...I was going to get a Ti Millie and swap the blade out with a S110V. However, I was told I cant do that. So...I want to find some aftermarket titanium scales. I put a set of Flytanium scales on my PM2 with an M4 blade and I have a new found love for the PM2 now. The added weight makes it feel ...

So I ordered a set of textured Flytanium scales for a PM2. I was going to use a regular black S30V blade.....but than decided to put them on my S110V. However, I ended up using my jade M4 instead since I just got it back from Spyderco and it was perfectly tuned and sharpened. Scales fit like a glove...

I LOVE LOVE this Millie....can you think of ANY other knife that has 4" of S110V for this price??? Bang for buck, this thing can't be beat. I have two and sometimes carry two. LOL...

I'm going to keep it. The Spydero store is STUPID expensive. I mean....wow....no way. I'll just keep it and put it on display. The old school black Millies that say "Military" on them are not so popular. I'm going to call them and find out what the problem is. I have another old school Mil...

I have these as well....the Piq can clip on your tie or waistband and is SUPER handy...and CRAZY lethal.... http://cdn6.bigcommerce.com/s-6ihm7h/products/565/images/2898/PICOEUR-Black-2__94982.1470627612.1280.1280.jpg?c=2 A bit bigger.... http://cdn6.bigcommerce.com/s-6ihm7h/products/546/images/2511...
