So I got a used Military digicam black DLC blade.I don't think it's a fake; the blade shape is identical to my Sprint run 52100 Military, and the font and lettering looks that same compared to a DLC finish blade PM2.
But I see these differences;
1. smaller lanyard hole
2. different pivot screw
3. has a spacer
4. carry clip not flared at the end
[edit - man I hate photobucket]

Re: Is This an Older Model Military?
Or maybe my Sprint run Millie has a larger lanyard hole than the norm?

Re: Is This an Older Model Military?
After looking at photos from other legit sources, I believe that these differences are normal production variations.
Re: Is This an Older Model Military?
Ha thats not old. My 97 Military ( in ATS 34) is old.
Black G 10 is all that was offered. Love all the options that Spyderco offers now a days.

Yes, this is pre 2017 vs 2017+ (CQI). Spacer is aluminum, BTW.

Re: Is This an Older Model Military?
Years ago I acquired a G10 Serrated Matte Finish Military marked Spyderco (over top of) CPM 440V on one side and Golden Colorado (over) USA on the other. Has a black clip and has been worn as an EDC for several years. I am curious about how old it might actually be - its a very nice knife but is a tad larger than allowable in almost every government building I routinely enter in my work. Excellent webbing and rope knife in the fall protection and rescue environment.
