...MSRP. Just like the regular black handled Millie. NGK will be cheaper :)

Is this a Sprint Run? Knife Center's web page lists it as a sprint run, but Spyderco lists it as "New! - Limited Quantities Available," not as a Sprint Run. Is it an initial run of 1,200 pieces and more if demand is there?

I could so just buy every variation of the Military. I love that knife. It has now taken over as my favorite knife surpassing the Paramilitary.

Yup, you are right. Thanks. I just found the old thread reply from Kristi:

C36GPOR, Orange G-10 Millie. CPM-S30V steel. It's a Sprint Run of 600 pieces.

Not available yet, but coming soon.

Nice try but needs some improvement

I think if it is for Save and Serve personels, it should have full serrated edge and a glassbreaker at the butt end. Maybe a seatbelt cutter insert (some hidden/safety blade) could come in handy. The lack of the glassbreaker is the most suffering point of the Millitary, IMHO. It also can be use as a melee weapon at SD situation.

Anyway the Millie is a near perfect folder for outgoings. The liner lock and open back design makes it inert for dirt and easy to clean it, maintain it. And yeah, the orange handle makes it easier to find if we loose it in the grass!

There's one up on Ebay right now a lot lower than MSRP. I think it was around 140. Sure would like to see an orange handled Para. The Military is just too big for me. Good luck you Military nuts.

Just went back and checked. It's 142.99. The listing says that there are 6 available.
