After I posted a picture of my Forum Military on instagram a while back, I noticed I got a -lot- of DMs asking if it was for sale (it's not). Judging from that experience, it seems to be a sought-after variation.

:D thanks for the chuckle, it doesn't happen that often actually and this Forum Military really stood out in that respect.

I would have to agree, that forum military is hands down the hardest to find due to the low numbers produced. Also the 96 black ats. I cherish my collection and the various steel used. I have one on my possession every day........

I thought everyone knew 2 s125v millie's existed.

The hardest one for me to find is a simple CQI titanium model. Every time I buy one it's pre CQI despite being listed otherwise. There are much rarer models but that's my demon.

I still don't have a forum Millie nor a D2. I am not sure why D2 is so hard to find but those forum Millies, Man those are beautiful.

I have on occasion seen D2 Millies on the bay; mind you, not cheap.

I have 2 BNIB carbon fiber/m390 millies. I never see those around anymore even on the secondary market. I’ll never sell them though, unless the price goes nutty.

I have 7 of the jade/m4 versions. I love jade, and I love m4. So I got enough to last me a lifetime. Won’t sell any of those either. I think I have a Millie problem.

It's the one I kick myself for not getting. Got the others I need and all of mine are users so I'm fine :D

The most difficult Millie for me to find is a smooth scaled variant that isn’t Ti. Titanium is too heavy. Surely there is something out there that meets this simple descriptor. :cool:

Maybe you could find some smooth G10 (or otherwise) aftermarket scales? I've never really looked at scales for Millies, but I reckon they gotta exist.

I look around from time to time and I have never seen anything. It is one of those knife slots that I have wanted to fill for a while but I haven’t looked super hard beyond a quick google search.

I own four Militarys- Ti/CF/S90V, gray G10/Cruwear, smurf blue G10/S90V, Black G10/serrated S30V. I have thought about sanding one of the G10 handles. CQI complicates things so far as mixing and matching. The Cruwear and serrated knives have virtually no use except handling and maybe cutting paper. I hate thought of experimenting on one of those

It is not something that I have stressed over too much. Threads like this one just bring it back to my attention. So I mention it.
