I like knives...
Big, sharp knives! I see you've been on a kick with the Military's lately. Still getting adjusted to mine, but so far I'm definitely a fan and am beginning to understand the appeal for this beast of a knife...a beast, yet so slim and light.
15 :bug-red 's in 10 different steels
1 - Bradford Guardian 3 / Vanadis 4E Wharnie
1 - Monterey Bay Knives Slayback Flipper / ZDP 189

I think it would be awesome for them to do a P4 lightweight run.

Something like a dark grey FRN with rex45 would be amazing!

I’m not hoping for an exclusive. I want regular production or a widely available Sprint Run.
I agree. Stop with the exclusives and make decent numbers available.

It’s frustrating, especially where BBS is concerned.

That's one of the reasons no sprints are in my EDC rotation. The window for buying one can literally be minutes on some models, and I don't care for the secondary market where folks charge twice the price of a base model for X sprint.

I know what you mean. I have a few Sprints but I don’t go out of my way to get them. Of course, mine are all pocket knives and they don’t move as fast as larger knives, usually.

Are you kidding to use “hope”?
I hope Spyderco won’t let them run any exclusives.

This was a yes for me, until the announcement of the new Military Sal is prototyping. One of my favorite steels, but having three Military knives already, I will wait for the new one.

I'll buy a K390 Military and couldn't give a flying duck as to who sells it as long as it's priced accordingly.

Shipping cost is an issue from BBS for us colonials but I'll ask one of my friends here to secure one for me and have him send it to me. I'll send a few extra dollars for him to have a drink for his trouble ... happy days. :)

Anyone else hoping for a BBS exclusive Military in k390?

Provided it's on the newer M2 model with the Compression lock? I'm in!

Better yet, hope to see a vast selection of different steels being offered on the newer upcoming model, too include other dealers and distributor exclusives.

Finally being able to carry and operate a military like a pm2 is a welcome change. The extra holes bother me not.
Currently have 163 :spyder: 's & 41 different steels.
Bench Stones Atoma Diamond Plate 140,400,600,1200. Naniwa Chosera 400,800,1000,3000,5000.
Shapton Glass 1000,6000. Suehiro Rika 5000. Shapton Pro 320,1000,2000,5000,8000.
Naniwa Bonded Diamond 400,600,800,1000,3000,6000. Venev Gen2 OCB Combo Diamond 800/1200.
Spyderco 306UF, 306CBN. Doublestuff2 303FCBN2, & 204MF Sharpmaker w/204CBN for Spidie Edges.
Want List Steels 15V, S125V, K490, M398, Magnacut, S390, SRS-15, Vanadis 8, Vanax SC, Vancron SC,
