Thanx Cletus,

I've been enjoying mine. The Golden Knife-makers really did a nice job crafting these. "It's the little things". I, for one, are really proud of them.

Great job Spyderco!

Truly is a great looking knife, they did a great job on it. The scales especially look good. This is a very tempting knife but I might save my funds for the 15V version.

Yay! - mine arrived direct from the UK importer today. About $290 usd which is pretty inexpensive for the UK.

It’s a great knife!

Mine did finally show up after a week lol, so much for 2 day shipping...
This knife is way bad to the bone and is well worth the wait lol. Feels great in the hand, just love the C/F scales.
I moved my clip to tip up right-side and bent the leading edge of the clip to 1/4" up, off the scale for an easier pocket snagging, I do all my clips this way.
I tied up a new lanyard with two flame colored Titanium spyders and attached it to the tail of this awesome knife as I do with all my pocket knifes lol, old habit from before we had this bad boy clip lol.
Then I tuned up the Axle to my liking for easy one handed open and closing, this knife is smoooooothhhhh lol.
True'd the cutting edge to 34 degrees, one side was spot on 17 degrees but the otherside was way off in left field. It honed and polished out to a stupidly sharp edge. Love this steel!!!
Now this knife is in my pocket and I can't thank the folks at Spyderco enough for such a sprint run!!!

Thanks Sal for such a great design! The Military, Endura and Delica are some of the classic Spyderco knives of all time. The Military 2 is a fantastic upgrade to the original, and the CF/s90 Sprint is peak Spyderco in my mind.This Military was given to me by a good friend who read about it and then went out and had it ordered for him and it was his first Spyderco. I had given him a Native Chief g10/s30v because I knew he would have never gotten one for himself, (and now he is a real N.C. fan also), and he surprised me with this Military! What a great guy, and what a great old classic knife!

Dear European aficionados with some disposable income, the CF M2 is available to preorder at Lamnia. Still not sure myself if I can afford it… 🫣

Already ordered, see my previous post here. Will take a week or two before shipping.

FYI, the improvements to the original Military to create the Military 2 was the work of Eric. I'm proud of him as well.

Super happy with this new knife. I'll probably not buy anymore PM2's and collect the M2 from now on. Here it is next to the M1, the Millie family, and my other newest CF folder the Centofante 3.

the texture on that CF is way too good. I would love sprint run handles for the seki spydercos even if they ended up costing as much as the knife tbh.

Honestly, I'm very surprised the M2 and PM2 don't cannibalize each other. They are practically the same.

Mine showed up today and I'm glad I pulled the trigger. I love the Golden peel ply CF and this one does not disappoint!

As much as I appreciate the M1, I really do like the M2 ergos more.

I ordered one but I am sure it could not replace my superb Knifeworks exclusive CF/Ti S90V M1. That one is indeed a Military to end them all.

If your on the fence.....buy this one. It's a great looking knife. I've bought around 30 Spyderco's and it's my best to date. I'm debating buying another and making one a user.
