10 years of Millie goodness

[brj]

10 years ago I was discovering the Spyderco Military and my quest for the perfect knife was at an end. It's been a fun ride (and I have no plans to stop anytime soon).

Dec 2007


Dec 2017


Hopefully 2018 would be the year of Maxamet & LC200N.

PS: the 204p is actually a Christmas present from the missus that I am yet to receive (and act surprised) but hey, what happens on the :spyder: forum stays here, right?

Wow! I'm impressed! A very nice collection of a great knife.

[Evil D]

Nice collection. I was a late adopter but it's one of my favorite knives now.

[Doc Dan]

A very nice collection. I only have one, but it is excellent.

[Flipping Addict]

Have had 8 or 9 of those and all that remains is the one smack dab in the middle.

Ironically the plain Jane S30V with orange handle is pretty hard to find. And you have two! Dilly dilly

[toomzz]

THAT is a collection, nice. No fluted Ti Millie?

I'm a little late to the Millie party but it has become one of my favorite blade patterns next to the endura.

Beautiful collection!

brj, what are the 3 on the right side of the 2017 pic pls... can’t quite make out the steels...

[JenWrath]

Gosh, you have one in BG-42.

The Millie is a dangerous lil' guy. I bought a 52100 because I wanted to try the steel and didn't have a MIllie yet...didn't think I'd carry it much because of it's size compared to most of my other knives at the time. Well, it wound up being my main EDC everyday for months. I'm still surprised how easy it is to forget it's in the pocket. I now have 4 different Millies, have gifted quite a few to friends and am saving up for the 204p version ;D

The 5th from the left is a fluted. He does not have the plain one.

Oddly, no Jade G10 Blade HQ M4? Or are my eyes playing tricks on me?

The 2004 S30V/CF sprint, 52100 and one of my favorite users, a Ti/CF M390 frankenmillie

You are correct, I've decided to pass on the jade (not a big fan of the color and already had M4 on the 2010 Knifeworks exclusive).

The Military was my EDC until the Manix 2XL came along. Love to see a Millie with a Compression lock, Manix style ball bearing lock or even standard back lock. Making a frame lock was a good step, but it would be nice to see some new lock options.

The digicam black blade variation was my first. I gifted it to a war buddy, now I have the 204P forest green. For the size, it is the lightest production 4" folder that I can think of. Amazing engineering on a simple concept (liner lock).

Thanks for posting your collection!
