Is the titanium handled military in the works a frame lock? Also will the blade be S30V?

From its original concept, the Militry was our original "mule". The knife was designed to be a user, not a colllection piece. The different steels and handle materials are a good way to test on a user model.

We are certainly going to make different variations of the military in our Golden plant. New steels, handle, etc.

The TiMil is currently in pilot.

The "TiMiL" is a Reeve Integral Lock. CPM-S30V blade.

:D I just checked a thread on BF and Sal say that it was going to be a RIL AND there is a Ti compression lock Mili possibly in the works.

I underlined a small but important word. Don't change to a "maybe" or "eventually". Let the Ti-Miltary become reality, Sir ... please. Thanks in advance from an aficionado :)

Will it still have a G10 or CF front scale or maybe be the same specs so one could change them around?

All Titanium.

It's like the sebenza killer... of full production knives that is. Man there are definitely a few spydercos that are just calling to me no days! I just sort of got the bug for knives and this is not helping!! :D

I'm glad this model is all titanium. I prefer uniformity.

Personally, I don't get the appeal of "half-and-half" handles - of course, I don't care much for CE blades, either.

Just makes it a bit grippier is all...Ti's kinda slick unless they add some kind of texture to it. :rolleyes: Either way I'd buy one.

im excited about this one for sure.

liltemp1 · #17

Oh yea, theres the feel of Ti that I love. My A.T.R. is another fave that I can't put down. I really enjoy the texture of titanium and very light weight. :D

Actually, all Ti isn't that bad there are plenty of modders out there that are more than capable of making a CF or G-10 scale. Just wait till I post my review of my new G-10/SS ATR...

Mr.Sparkitle · #19

Sal,
Is this going to be a regular production model or is it just going to be a sprint run? Also is the MSRP going to be similar to the G10 mili or more of the likes of the bg-42 and s90v milis?

LorenzoL · #20

Any idea what the ETA should be on this one? That Ti Millie and the Sage 2 are way on top of my wish list.
