I agree. At least we can keep dreaming about one day seeing that M4 Para2...Evil D wrote:Yeah, not in this lifetime. Last one I saw on the bay went for over $500. That's too rich for my blood. It's an awesome knife but I'd sooner get a GB and a couple other knives for that mind of money.

yeah, it's pretty nice... :p probably been in my pocket over 95% of the time since it came out ~2.5 years ago. I was lucky enough to get on the original list, almost took my name off of the list because of financial stuff but really glad I didn't. the wait was over a year long for this bad boy.Evil D wrote:I really need one of these. It's interesting how the bottle cap rim is pretty much the same pattern as the lock bar.
I had never handled a military before I got this and I honestly thought it would be too big and it would sit in my drawer as an investment. took about a week to realize it is quite possibly the greatest working knife around and I haven't bought a modern folder since...

I have been carrying the Para2 s90v for a while now. I was curious to how well the carbon fiber handles scales would hold up compare to g10. They seem to be a little harder but they do have some indentations from my keys and a multi-tool rattling around in my pocket. I just started carrying my Delica4 zdp-189. I love the color of the frn handle on this one but I much prefer the ffg blade.

this guy was seriously needing some work this morning, had seen a few hundred yards of cardboard cutting this week and it hadn't even been sharpened for a while before that, was struggling with printer paper D:
on top of that I got in a big water balloon fight for the fourth of July, and this guy sat soaking all night and I woke up to a nice peppering of rust spots this morning. nothing that couldn't be fixed in about ten seconds, though.
now shaving sharp but needs a bit of work near the tip.

I can help with that!hoytshooter16 wrote:Thanks to all you guys who posted up pics of the Caly Super Blue's I will be out some more money :) I wanted one but now I really want one!
In case you can't tell I like the gray G-10 Sprints :D Such a great color on the knives, especially with a patina and it shows use really well! When I bought a new Caly 3 the G-10 just felt so much more crisp and harsh compared to the 3.5 I'd been using for months.
This is the edge of the Jester. 26-28 inclusive or so. Cuts like a laser!
My go to small edc knive. Yo2 is a better cardboard knife so I use that but this one is just a fun knife to carry :D

Thanks DRKBC...
Yes the Military is great, but I have one problem with it - I'm always tempted to buy another one. As a result, I now have a fully serrated one on the way :)

I know exactly what you mean, after I got the Ti Military I became anxious to get another model with G10. This week I signed up for the Cruwear pre-order and now the wait begins ...
Picked up the plain blade G10 and liked it so much picked up the Ti as well. Some bored conversation at work this weekend with another Spydie lover got me to thinking, how about a left hand Millie for the other pocket just for kicks. Should be fun and at the great price for the lefty, why not?
Now you just need to get the ambidextrous version to complete the set :DBarman wrote:Same here.
