Re: Bladeshow 2021

No. Slab sides. Smooth, though.Evil D wrote: ↑Sun Jun 06, 2021 2:15 pmSumdumguy wrote: ↑Sun Jun 06, 2021 1:47 pmI wouldn't say requirement. But, definitely a major plus.
The handle slabs were made out of the Caribbean's G10 and it excited me for a second, until they said that was just using leftover material.
Same Shaman contoured scales though?
It was just a Proto, so it will likely change. I remember getting my hands on the Chief proto a few years back and it had full steel liners.

Re: Bladeshow 2021
Discussed in an (some) other thread(s), but it sounds more and more like they really should call it the Para 4 or PM2 XL... Comp. lock? PM2 style choil? For me personally the Millie (looks and function) is almost defined especially by the great and most userfriendly linerlock but also the minimal choil...
Anyway, many will love this model, no doubt! And this is not about that the Millie 2 (as I figure now it will be) would be "bad", just not like a Millie but as said more a Para 4...
Top three going by pocket-time (update March 24):
- EDC: Endura thin red line ffg combo edge (VG10); Wayne Goddard PE (4V), Endela SE (VG10)
-Mountains/outdoors: Pac.Salt 1 SE (H1), Salt 2 SE (LC200N), and also Wayne Goddard PE (4V)

Wish I could see that Military 2 prototype.Sumdumguy wrote: ↑Sun Jun 06, 2021 12:02 pm
I just couldn't wait another year to go...
The Military 2 is great, except it has a different choil. Sharper and deeper, like the PM2.
I hope they revert that change.
There were some Amazing pieces. Specifically, the choilless Shaman. If they make a Salt version, it may very well bench my Caribbean. Truly a wonderfully designed handle and blade(maybe a tad thick).
Also, there was a fixed blade there, that I can't quite remember the maker's name. But, it was one of the highlights. Fortunately, I have a contact that I will get the name from and hopefully a custom.
I'm going to plan for this better next time, so I'm not timing the stop.
To those that I spoke to, thanks for the conversations. To those I didn't, maybe next year!
Awesome sticker by the way :)

Re: Bladeshow 2021
I’ll buy it either way, but I say bring on the PM2-style choil.

Re: Bladeshow 2021
I'm not surprised by that change to the Military.
I know a lot of people here like the current shallow choil, but I can count on no hands the number of times I've seen someone ask for the PM1 style choil to make a return after the PM2 launched.

Re: Bladeshow 2021
No photos permitted of prototypes - been a thing for a long time now
Re: Bladeshow 2021
I saw less people filming this year than previous shows. Also the show ended today at 2pm so maybe in the coming week some more will pop up.
And the stuff in the prototype/pre-production display is off-limits for filming & photos.

Definitely never a good idea.

Re: Bladeshow 2021
Yikes! I missed a lot of good stuff this weekend! I so wish I could've been there to see the prototype display- the Military 2 and the Techno 3 both sound very interesting.
Were there any other collaboration prototypes? I thought we might see the BBB proto...

Having spent 15 minutes watching the video, to then state that they already ‘don’t like Spyderco’s’. So why watch? :rolleyes:

Re: Bladeshow 2021
That’s My favorite thing about the military and wish more models were less defined. I much more prefer designs that don’t force my hand somewhere. The more neutral the better in my book.

Lots of great stuff ahead, very good time to be a Spyderco fan.

Re: Bladeshow 2021
I just find it interesting that a lot of people here feel this way about the Military, but back when the PM2 came out I don't recall anyone here making similar remarks.
I do recall a few people wishing the PM2 blade was as short as the PM1, but the four way clip and deeper choil were universally loved.
