And the owner of an object can give it the nickname he wants, too. That philosophy actually makes everyone happy, in this particular case !
I'm gonna use my Civility Deux to cut some micarta burrs today

Oh yeah, I'm just putting that out there since I've seen people really angry against the fact that the Military 2 is different than the Military. It wasn't here but I thought it good to have this written somewhere, to remind people that we're discussing knives we did not make ^^.Wartstein wrote: ↑Sun Oct 15, 2023 6:28 am
100 % agreed, and I personally have not read a single comment actually criticizing Spyderco or Sal for calling it the Millie 2!
Still, on a high level discussion forum folks with deep interest and thus detailed thoughts concerning the products should also be allowed to utter their personal opinion without getting torn apart for their words![]()

Doesn't stop anyone from having opinions or thoughts about this, it shouldn't !
Oh yeah, you're not targeted by my message that's what I wrote. I meant that I read that on FB groups, just did not want to cite the placesWartstein wrote: ↑Sun Oct 15, 2023 7:30 amI don´t recall anyone actually being angry that the Millie 2 is different than the Millie (1).
Rather folks getting angry by people daring to point out that for THEM subjectively the above is the case...![]()
Honestly, the Millie 2 discussions were pretty weird and not like I personally am used to how things are going on this forum.
I mean, imagine they brought out a next PM2 generation, and it would feature a linerlock instead of a comp.lock and the minimal Milli 1 choil instead of the current more substantial PM2 choil.. there´d be also people pointing out that for them personally the then "old" PM2 is different and that they´d prefer the then "old" choil and the comp.lock.
Just when it comes to the changes from Millie 1 to Millie 2 people sometimes almost freak out when someone has just opinions about that.
The depth of the serration pattern should not be judged based on catalog pictures. Those are often photoshopped renderings and do not accurately represent the real world differences between actual serration patterns on the knife. As you probably know, serrations are ground into the blade with a shaped wheel that wears down overtime. This means that the first knives ground on that wheel will have a deeper serration grind than the last knives ground on that wheel.Wartstein wrote: ↑Sun Oct 15, 2023 10:47 pmTotally NOT a world shattering difference, but still something I noticed and prefer on the Millie 2:
The combo edge version appearantly leans more towards SE (has a higher percentage of SE (vs PE)) on the "2".
And of course offers the more "modern", mellower serration pattern which I personally prefer (see pics below).

I wanted something else than S30v to try a Millie 2 and the Crucarta is just the ticket. Now will it replace my Millie in CTS-XHP is the question.kennethsime wrote: ↑Wed Oct 18, 2023 11:04 pmFirst variations are in thanks to the new Reveal. S110 and Crucarta for standard production, CF/S90V sprint.
I’m buying the Crucarta as soon as it’s available at DLT. Add a Lynch clip and that is likely my perfect knife.
