One more cry for an SE Military
One more cry for an SE Military
I know that it's a combination of howling at the moon and beating a dead horse but I wonder what the realistic chances of seeing an SE Military are in either a sprint or production run? The Military is needing some more love in general. I would love to see DLT do the Tan 20CV combo for the Military.
Do right always. It will give you satisfaction in life.

Yes. LC200N, 20CV or S35V, and skip the DLC. Pretty please :)
Re: One more cry for an SE Military
Only if the blade and teeth are thinner than the old ones. The one I have is ok for rope and such but it's pretty horrible for boxes or anything rigid. By comparison the Caribbean is a significantly better slicer.
All SE all the time since 2017

Agree, I would purchase two Military SE immediately.
Have an older 440V SE and treasure the knife.
Forget the DLC coating.

I carry a serrated 440V Military and would love to buy a new model if it is in a stainless steel.

Re: One more cry for an SE Military
Why might I ask that you would want a C-36 Military model in full Spyderedge with a thinner blade :confused: ?? Heck I loved my old 440V, full SE Military model just exactly the way it was. And if they have any old 440V bar stock laying around they could make a Sprint Run on even a new version with 440V as far as I'm concerned because it was a great blade steel for Spyderedges.
On second thought if you were to use it in marine conditions I guess I could sort of see it having some advantages in a thinner blade. But overall I've always like the C-36 Military models just the way they were originally made and designed.
Re: One more cry for an SE Military
Not thinner blade stock, a thinner blade grind and thinner/shallower serrations. I was a little unsure about claims of the Military being too thick in the edge and teeth until I got this Caribbean to compare it to. If you could see both of them side by side in person you'd see what I mean. There's just no comparison. It's like a tractor vs a sports car. The Caribbean blade stock is a wee bit thinner at the spine but less than half a millimeter, it really comes down to how thick the blade is at the edge and how deep the serrations are cut into the blade. Running the two blades through cardboard is a night and day difference.JD Spydo wrote: ↑Sun Mar 24, 2019 5:49 amWhy might I ask that you would want a C-36 Military model in full Spyderedge with a thinner blade :confused: ??

Evil D,
Thanks for the comparison,,,, i will order a Caribbean SE soon.
My older Military 440V SE has much deeper serrations than my new Endura Wharncliffe SE in VG-10.
