They haven't been too honest about quantities in the past. With the whole first batch of Blue Paras selling out at an odd quantity and coming up with another odd quantity second batch.
No idea. Just sharing what I read on their Facebook page :D

Well, my orange PM2 just arrived. Quite beautiful. Much nicer color than even the pictures displayed. Oh, and my brown s35vn, my green Elmax, and my blacked out s30v came in the same day. Quite a nice knife day I must say. I've lost my mind.

BBS still has a bunch of the Blue S90V Millies left. $283.75 shipped and throw in 9% sales tax if you live in CA.
KC is showing the S110V Millie at a 40% off price of $173 and free shipping. So your saving $110 and getting a better steel in the bargain? I know which one I'll be buying.

If they don't sell the S90V versions before the Blurple S110V Millies comes out they could be stuck with them for a very longgg time.

Not sure if its accurate but looking at the KC pic the S110V version has a black pocket clip..kinda cool looking.

S110V is better than S90V?


S110V is regular mass production, so naturally costs should be lower. Not that I'm arguing by how much...

Doesn't the BBS Military have a different pivot? Or have I heard this wrong?

They have different pivots and one will be far more collectible in the future. I would prefer the S90V version for multiple reasons but with that kind of a price difference I will be passing on both and going with the one with no Vs in it. Bring on the 52100.

Also, while you are doing a value analysis on the Military variations don't forget that there is another S90V version coming with a Ti framelock. That should make the BBS version a little less desirable from a value perspective.

Haha, legit.
No wonder they referred to S60V as 440V instead. That one has all of them. :p

I don't know? Its been on their site for nearly 3 years and they still have a large number in stock. Doesn't seem all that collectible to me? :confused:
I'd take the S110V version over the overpriced BBS version any day of the week.

That Cutlery Shoppe exclusive ParaMilitary2 Black DLC CTS-XHP blade with Orange G-10 came out in October 2015 and they sold for $175.00 back then. It took several months before they were all sold out.

I completely stay away from BBS and their overpriced offerings to which you mostly have to add shipping charges as well.
