Another vote for m4 pm2!! And I would like a chance to own a Millie with m4 too! Seems like those sold well at KW so I wonder why they aren't doing another run of those. I think m4 is a great steel and would love to see more offerings in a variety of platforms!

M4 PM's been requested the most for years on the forums now. They know and I have no doubt that they'll come through someday.

I have this anxiety though that when it finally does come its gonna be so sought after that many will be left out. I hope its at least 1200 pieces (the max they do) or even an unprecedented higher number. In fact, it should not be a sprint but a limited production or at least a dealer's exclusive that can be reordered. Just some ideas. Im in for two BTW.

Another run of the M4 Ti Millie from KW would be sweet!

From a user standpoint, i think the rest of the special edition para's/milie's/M2's should all be exclusives rather than sprints.

Or limited production in batches. They'll never make the 20CP again because of the sprint designation. So sad...for me. I have one, would buy another.

I do not know how can you resist dark green para. 204P also cool.

I sold mine because I didn't like gray. But after carrying Jester for a while I started to like gray, but para is gone :mad:

I totally agree, but I'm pretty sure Sal posted at one point that they were very unlikely to do a Ti + G10 Military again. It sounded like there were production issues with that one. Too bad, because with an M390 blade swap it is definitely my favorite Spyderco folder.

Good point. I think the demand will be very high.

Did you find an online shop that accept to ship an exclusive spyderco to international locations with decent shipping fees ?
I didn't. UPS, fedex, etc are so expensive that it dissuades me each time to buy one.

It a great shade for sure, but i kept my smurf para over the green one. Just seemed funner to carry and use. Plus the green one had better resale value :D

If they did another run of the Ti M4 military, i would most likely not be able to hold back :)

I'm using my M4 Military to slice up a pear as I read this... I'd jump at a chance to purchase a few backups at what they originally sold for!
