Forgot I had ordered the Caribbean from them.

I'm old and forgetful. (My handle could accurately be HolySteel1958)

Even dumberer: I ordered bronzed hardware and a bronze deep carry clip for my new PM 2....but it's a Military 2! :dizzy
D'Oh!

Ah Ha! SE is coming!
Very excited to hear there will be a SE version.

Also that there will be a 'peel ply CF S90V' version. Always regretted missing that sprint of the Millie years ago.

All in all, can't wait for the Millie 2.

Hoping we see a comparison photo next to the Millie 1 to highlight what ergonomic changes/tweaks they have made.

Seems like the S90V/CF combo is Spyderco's unofficial "dealer exclusive theme" since it's almost a tradition at this point to make their better versions in that combo.

Even the Siren which I did NOT see coming. Truthfully, I didn’t even realize it was MiUSA until then. I don’t mind either — it’s a great signature Golden combo.

I signed up for the Military 2. I wonder if there will be purple or blue scales for it? 🤔

I decided this morning that I'm going to carry a Military 1 in some flavor or another everyday until I get the Military 2 in my hands, so that by then the ergonomics of the 1 are fresh in my mind so I immediately see and feel the difference when I get the 2. Starting it off today with the 4V version.

When you have a chance, please post them in 'What Spyderco is in your pocket today??', so the rest of us can also enjoy.

Lamnia.com have had the expected M2 availability date listed as May 2023 for some time. I’m planning to pick up second hand during 2024-2025.

Don’t trust it. They have the same even for the knives which are not available anymore, like Ayoob. As I follow quite a few “not in stock” Spyderco knives on Lamnia, this is just how their system works. The item could be expected to be stocked but unavailable for very long time. Only the month is changing.

I’m planning to pick up CF s90v Military 2 sprint in 2030 :winking-tongue

Looks like some tiny serrations. I'm a little hesitant about tiny serrations after a couple bad reprofile jobs. I hope these come in at or less than 15 degrees.

Could be a photoshop issue. The partially serrated version has different teeth but the two images started off the same. You can tell if you look closely at the details of the image that they’re the same.

These are in addition to the plain edge. The Military 2 was first revealed in Reveal v12 and only featured a plain edge.

So excited to finally see a SE Military in the works. I can't remember ever seeing one for sale.
