Roger got the rest of the order Sat. So they all should be shipping real soon.
Will send you one to test when I get the rest of mine in.

Mine arrived today. All the way to Australia safe and sound.
Took about a week and a half to arrive.

Customs had not opened the box to do the flick test.
The pivot screw had been tightened significantly :) Thanks KW!

Hello, everyone. Been a while since I've been back to the Spyderco forums.

I'm worried that Roger didn't get my order out.
Roger received the rest of the M390 Millies last Saturday, but he has not yet sent me any Paypal requests for money.

I've sent in my deposit a long time ago, but I'm worried he has forgotten about my order. I did not get any Paypal requests for money or any kind of shipping notifications. I sent Roger an email but he hasn't responded yet.

Is anyone else in a similar situation where they did not receive any updates or news from Roger yet?

Thanks.

mystikessence, you are not alone.

The same thing happened with me, and being unsure, I wrote in to the Help email @ KW, to share the fact that the last 2 orders and on my profile that my address had changed, and by the way, what the status on the millies was.

Alas, They did not have it. Takes them a while to get back to you though, make sure you have a proof of your order and payment and send it to them.

Their service has always been TIP TOP, and when I did not hear back from them and the fact that they speak in the singular and not the DOUBLE as I ordered on the opening day- has left a sour taste in my mouth- when I ordered in the begining, I did a double tap and billed twice, to which they corrected and it was immediately reflected.

But I have to say that all I want is exact confirmation of the 2 that I ordered. This however has not been done.
They have said yes and will be sorted soon mind you(no details though).

Having ordered the Green P2's, I will be confirming next month to ensure that there are no problems.

KW is my company of choice and I hope all turns out well( when ever I find something online that I want, KW is always my first stop to see if I can get it from them).

All the best,
Guy

Hi, everyone.

Just an update on the situation. They finally emailed me back and requested the remaining Paypal balance. Said they'll ship it after confirming payment. I'm more at ease now. :D

I've always ordered from Knifeworks when I can. Their service has always been top notch. This time is no different. I'm envious that most of you already received your Millies. Can't wait to get mine.

The new KW exclusive PM2 doesn't tickle my fancy this time, but I'm looking forward to the next exclusive, whatever that may be. *cough* MCM *cough*.

Stay sharp!

Uhhh...be careful. It only works if you cut backwards using your left hand. Unless of course you're south of the equator, in which case all you Aussies/etc. can disregard and use it normally. That is the design purpose of the so-called backwards jimping. It isn't backwards at all and it isn't a manufacturing glitch. It's a feature for the southern hemisphere.

:eek:

Finally got mine! These are nice! No complaints here.
Sure, the jimping is at a slightly more vertical angle, but I have a couple other Millies with similar jimping, and they're far from useless. It grips just fine.

I notice one has a stronger detent and harder thwack when it opens. The other is a little more soft spoken. Both have nice grinds and good edges. I can already tell, I'm going to enjoy these very much. :D
