I think I just blew a few neurons out looking at that CF S125V Millie! :eek: :)

3 blades a day, so it'll take 6 months to do 600 pieces sprint. I think I can wait:)

Re: Most difficult Millie to find??
Weren't those made years ago for test purposes? I don't think they are planning on running a batch. IMO, the steel is inferior to Maxamet. Maxamet outperforms it , takes better edges and is tougher and harder both. I believe even 10V outperforms it as well though it has lower Vanadium % numbers. I had 3- S125V knives and got rid of them .

Re: Most difficult Millie to find??
Very cool, thanks for sharing Sal and Kristi.
I fully agree with those that mentioned the forum Millie with the bug inlay, in 10 years of accumulating Millies I've never once come across one for sale.
I'd also venture to say that the concept models (such as the 2009 tero tuf) would be quite hard to come by.

Would you happen to have a picture? The Bladeforums thread says it was taken down.brj wrote:2009 tero tuf
Obscure handle, three-of-a-kind blade... We're assembling quite a rare puzzle here.
Re: Most difficult Millie to find??
I have it somewhere, just need to search for it

The plain S30V in Orange G10 is not exactly easy to find...and to think about that Russian guy on YouTube snapping the tip on his

Most difficult Millie to find is the one you lost at your ex-girlfriends house 6 years ago, and now she has a restraining order, a lot of dogs, and moved 4 states away.
Or, one in Digi-camo that fell out of your pocket while riding your motorcycle in the desert.

Re: Most difficult Millie to find??
I was outbid on another SE with ATS-34 again yesterday. Hope one of you snagged that beauty. I just couldn't spend much more or I would have risked spending money for the ATR looming

Re: Most difficult Millie to find??
The TeroTuf concept from back in 2009. IIRC, Sal mentioned it's never seen production due to its structural stability not being on par with G10, but I know I would have loved a more Micarta-feeling type of handle...
Re: Most difficult Millie to find??
I was watching that one too but I didn't bid on it. There seem to be several that have come up recently but all of my Spydie money has been spent. Unless I want to sleep on the couch until Christmas. :rolleyes:xceptnl wrote:I was outbid on another SE with ATS-34 again yesterday. Hope one of you snagged that beauty.

Re: Most difficult Millie to find??
For me they're all difficult to find. Depends where you live
Millies in S110V, CTS-204p, REX 45, PM2/S110v, Native 5/Maxamet, P4/K390, Pacific Salt SE/H1, UK PK
Wants/Wishes (only NIB and EU): Militarys in 52100, Maxamet, Cru-Wear, Manix 2/Maxamet
Yes, Virginia, that's a Purple Haze in my suit pocket :)
