Where is the 50/50 Military?
As a loyal Spyderco fan, it is my duty to ask, “Where is the 50/50 Military?” I know that many on the forum dislike serrations. Personally, don’t understand why. I have used fully serrated knives for years and find that I can do just about anything required with one. The only exception is skinning critters.
Some of the funniest comments condemning serrations seems to be “can’t cut the cheese.” The answer is simple, just push straight down. Most real concerns center on esthetics and ease of sharpening. Anyway, I don’t want to start a fight over something like this where passions run high. We should thank Sal for the choice. I personally believe that 50/50 may be the best of both worlds, particularly with a blade this long.
So I have to ask, “When can I order a 50/50 Military?” Anyone else want one?

AHHHHHHHHHH!
=;-{)> I hate you sal... =;-p
plain edge or combo edge? now I have to *think* if I want a combo edge military, getting one in febuary or so.
too many choices, frying my brain(or at least whats left)... <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>
We all start with 10 fingers. Those with Spydies have 9 to spare, Still need a thumb. Good thing I still have 8 to spare...

hey guys! I just bought a serrated millie, it's a GREAT knife <img src="wink.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle> works pretty well but the only problem is that i'm not sure on how to sharpen it. could anyone provide some info on this? thanks!! I think that a 50/50 would definitely be an addition to my 'collection'. can't wait till January 2002! <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>

Adrian,
There was a thread in the last week or so about sharpening CPM 440V (as used on the Military).
