Isn’t a locking UKPK called the Delica?

I would love a SE Military.
On my radar: 110V Military, Police 4 and some sweet Rex 45 Military action.

A locking UKPK is a Caly 3, not a Delica. A drop point Caly 3 would be most excellent! :D

That’s what I meant.

Either way most excellent.

Standard Stretch, plus a smaller model with just under 3" blade, both with compression lock and wire clip. Or, the same knives as ultralight, liner-less, back locks with threaded inserts for the clip screws, like the current Native 5 LW.

Living near the ocean and waiting for the eventual release of the Mantra with a stainless blade, I was disappointed to see the new Mantra w/ compression lock. The last thing I want to see in a blade for use in a salty environment is the simplicity of an R.I.L. lock replaced by more internal steel mechanism.

I liked the compression lock in my PM2's (when I had them), understand its popularity, but please don't discontinue the R.I.L. Mantra format.

Well I finally get it.

My first pm2 has lived up to all the hype.

I now understand why so many people want a military 2 with a compression lock. I love both models and have no problem with the liner lock, but jeez, a pm2 XL would be nothing short of the best of both worlds for me.

As an edc, the pm2's blade is fine. But at work I encounter situations where the military's blade size is MUCH more practical/useful. The thought of a millie with a compression lock strikes fear in the heart of my checking account. No telling how many I'd buy.

@Pelagic - that was my experience too on the PM2 to Mili transition. I was an early adopter of the PM1 then PM2 and it took me years to get my first Military. When I did I understood both the noticeable advantage the longer blade provided, AND that the very adequate liner lock was very practical and ergonomic. For me, as much as I still like and carry PM2s, the Mili is my first choice if I can only take one. As far as changing to compression lock or better still, adding a Mili 2 with compression lock to the lineup... I fear what that would do to my budget :eek:

I’d like to see a sprint run of Phil Wilson Bow River coming out in a K390/PMA11/CPM 110v/CPM 10V. Just Something high wear that he would use. I think it would be a highly sought after knife and an all time great and also a great honor to Phil Wilson. He makes the best hunting and fishing knives on the planet why shouldn’t Spyderco have the best production hunter on the planet which brings me to where is the Spyderco Fillet Knife? Another Phil Wilson/Spyderco Collaboration would be awesome here as well.

Para 3 with longer blade.

...that was just for fun. Had them both apart, and wanted to see if the lockup works. Pretty close.

Just a hair longer handle,

I’d like to see (as in I have money to buy) more variations of PM, PM2 and Manix 2. Especially steel and colors. I’d like to see different colors of DLC, i.e. brown, blue, green, grey, black, etal.

a manix 2 lw with screws instead of pins!

after that, i’d love to see a stonewashed lc200n manix 2 lw salt with an olive handle. an all black version (or black blade/hardware and olive handle) with lc200n would also be spectacular.

and a blacked out yojimbo 2 in lc200n
