I REALLY hope we see a Military in this configuration. :)

A Military M390/Red G-10 would be nice. Hopefully, DLT does it and charges $175 for each. At that price (less for 2+ quantities) they’ll sell better and faster than the KnifeWorks CTS-204P/Dark Green G-10 which at $200 still hasn’t sold out since they started shipping in May 2016.

For reference, ParaMilitary2 S110V/Blue G-10 is $153 and the DLT ParaMilitary2 M390/Red G-10 is $150.

If there was to be a Military M390/G-10 I think it should be priced $175 (no more than $180). Military S110V/Blue G-10 is $177. The KnifeWorks Military CTS-204P/Dark Green G-10 really should've been $175-$180 from day one.

Honestly military's in general aren't as popular as the para 3 and the para 2.
Simply because most folks find the military too big and unwieldly for EDC.
And if you just need the military for the occasion you might aswell bring a fixed blade.

Not saying there isn't a market for the military i own the jade M4 myself but hardly carries it simply because i own so many spyderco's that fit the bill better. and when i do need something bigger and hard use I have a spyderco Mule.

Horses for courses. "Most folks" doesn't include me. The millie is my by far my most carried and used spyderco.

I carry a millie because I haven't found another spyderco that fits the bill better. I don't find it to big or unwieldy and for how much cutting edge it has its very light weight. If I need a fixed blade I go pull out a Esee Junglas. It does everything I will ever need of a fixed blade. Thinking back I have chopped down some good size limbs with a millie.

These are going quick. Seems like they’ll sell out before the release date.

Just curious to know how you know how many are left?

I already have my order in though. Twice.

^Yup! I am with Bile.

I was just sharing some enthusiasm for this steel and color combo. No need to come along and pee in my wheaties. ;)

I agree that the Para2 is more popular and I agree that many folks like smaller knives. I don't agree with anything else you said. I carry one all the time and find it functional, lightweight and ergonomically superior. Sorry you don't like my idea. I still want one. :)

Sorry for the tangent everybody. :o Back to red m390!

I originally ordered just one but after thinking a bit I bought 2 more. I'm probably going to give one to my father. His other current best is D2 so m390 will probably blow his mind. I really like m390. I just wish they had a manix 2 the same way.
