Its worked on a couple of mine.

The Cruwear Millie was a 1200 piece sprint so prices are still very reasonable due to the large number made.

Thanks for the tip - I tried it and it helped a little bit :) On this knife when I tighten the pivot screw fully the blade is perfectly centred so I'm not sure what's going on...

As I said I'm not worried about having a perfectly centred blade on this knife, but I appreciate the thought!

Which of these two do you think I should get first? I do not currently own any other knives in these steels. I do own a normal S30V military, and I'd like to try out a new steel. Knife will be a user!

Go with XHP, though you'd be hard pressed to notice a difference in edge retention between it and S30V. What would probably be most immediately apparently would be easier sharpening on the really high grit abrasives because of the much lower vanadium, and for that reason alone I'd go XHP.

Military in any sprint is worth it. Buy both.

This, all day everyday.

Oh and Pam had a great posterior.
