I don't want them to change the Milli, it's a legend and should stay the perfect way it is. I want a Military 2 with a compression lock (or linerless backlock)Ryno wrote:I really want to buy a millie, but it's gotta get changed to a compression lock before I do.

If you have been eyeing the CF/S90V, the price tag on this looks pretty nice.
If you want as much performance for cheaper, the blurple S110V is $100 cheaper.
It should be interesting to see if this release will lower the value of the older CF/S90V ones. I doubt it, the only way people will stop selling them for a high price is if people stop paying a high price for them.

Re: KW Excl: Mil CF/Ti R.I.L. S90V = Mid May?!
While I really like the liner lock Millies and have several, I think around saltwater, blood and guts, the Ti framelock makes more sense. While it may weigh an ounce or two more than the liner lock, seems it would be easier to clean and accumulate less gunk. I don't have a frame lock Millie so this is supposition on my part. Can someone with both give thoughts on this? I'm still considering the KW exclusive or the fluted Ti Millie with S30v. Thanks
Re: KW Excl: Mil CF/Ti R.I.L. S90V = Mid May?!
Does anyone know if this model has the recent CQI changes? I would appreciate the larger screws and lanyard hole.

I'm going to say yes, at least that's what they are showing at their site, I'm pretty sure all Military's coming will have it.ohcyclist wrote:Does anyone know if this model has the recent CQI changes? I would appreciate the larger screws and lanyard hole.

Re: KW Excl: Mil CF/Ti R.I.L. S90V = Mid May?!
Super exited about this one. This is what I really wanted when I spec' d the M4 Ti Millie.
But M4 was all the rage at the time, and CF was much more exotic back then. lol lol
Also the Ti Millie had been announced, but was not yet out.
Not to mention an exclusive in S90v was not allowed in those days..........
Should be a keeper..........

Re: KW Excl: Mil CF/Ti R.I.L. S90V = Mid May?!
I'm intrigued by this version, been looking forward to it since it was announced. But I already have two millies, just picked up the M390 CF last month. And now this announcement. Bad timing.
I'm still waiting for a tip up Military. You would think the good folks at Spyderco could have figured this out by now.

You can never have too many Military's, this one shouldn't be passed up, it will be a grail 5-10 years from now not to mention a spectacular piece. I have the M4 exclusive and its one bad *** Military, its a little heavier than the straight up G10 models but has that beefy feel like the Ti. :cool: :spyder:Hopweaver wrote:I'm intrigued by this version, been looking forward to it since it was announced.

100% my new thoughts.bearfacedkiller wrote:I am with David, the Military is the king.
I don't think that I am willing to pay what they are asking. There are not gonna move too fast at that price point so I am gonna wait for a price drop or pass.
Amazing knife, I'm just no willing to swing that high on price any more.
Re: KW Excl: Mil CF/Ti R.I.L. S90V = Mid May?!
I think I'm in on this one. My month of carrying the 204p exclusive left me wanting to try one with the RIL.
Re: KW Excl: Mil CF/Ti R.I.L. S90V = Mid May?!
I am super stoked for this model. Same price as the Fluted Titanium Military. S90V! Carbon fiber! What else is there to say?
Re: KW Excl: Mil CF/Ti R.I.L. S90V = Mid May?!
Will this knife be pinned? If you examine the pre-release photo, there's a pin next the pivot without screwheads.
Re: KW Excl: Mil CF/Ti R.I.L. S90V = Mid May?!
A little more eye candy. M4 Ti Millie and S90V CF Para2.
Re: KW Excl: Mil CF/Ti R.I.L. S90V = Mid May?!
I wonder who is going to swap in the S110V blade first. :)

Welcome to the forum danroyale, what you're seeing is Spyderco's CQI (constant quality improvements) its a stepped stop pin, it use to be screwed in, but not anymore. :)danroyale wrote:Will this knife be pinned? If you examine the pre-release photo, there's a pin next the pivot without screwheads.
