Awesome collection. Add me to the cts204p fan list, especially in tip up form.

This is pretty cool... the CRK clip is the best spring style clip IMO. What kind of hardware did you use?
This would make a Ti Millie “perfect”

That is impressive. I would be overwhelmed trying to pick which one to carry each day.
I bought my first Military s90v ti/cf last month and just love it. I have a PM2 and it was always my favorite knife, but if I had to choose one..........the military would get the nod.
Fantastic knife

After a zt 0562cf didn't pan out, I found I really liked the carbon fiber/titanium combo. I wanted to get a military and and try a super steel and this knife from knifeworks.com hit on all the levels.
It's gorgeous, and is a great cutting tool. Probably going to get the green g10 204p when it goes back on sale.
I bought the s90v cf/tI when it was 230 and feel it was a great buy.
I'd say it's a toss up between the S90V and M390 versions, with maybe a slight nod towards my Ti/CF M390 frankenmillie (second from top).
The 2006 BG-42 sprint.
Yeah, decided to pass on the jade since I already had M4 on the 2010 Knifeworks exclusiveI have one that your missing

M10 years ago I was discovering the Spyderco Military and my quest for the perfect knife was at an end. It's been a fun ride (and I have no plans to stop anytime soon).

2nd one in from the left
Your Millie collection is just amazing. I am a PM2 collector but I only have 8 and 2 Millies. I like them but not as much as you do. I am truly impressed by your collection. You should send a few pic's to Sal, I am sure he will appreciate seeing how dedicated people are when it comes to Spyderco's.
Enjoy

Very impressive collection
Wonder how you managed to not acquire the anodized fluted titanium Military and as a matter of fact, the plain fluted titanium military which is still available now?- Joined

Impressive collection!
For me the Millitary sets the standard for a no-nonsense knife that carries easily and cuts beautifully: it is thin enough and beefy enough, small enough and large enough, at the same time.
I have 5, but will probably cave and buy a CF/Ti S90V when they are discounted again.

I do have a plain fluted (next to the orange G10 in the pic) but it gets little-to-no pocket time, to me the 'add lightness' philosophy really shines with CF/G10. Handled the anodized and passed, a bit too flashy for my liking - surely it would have looked good in a display, but less so in my pocket (everything I have gets rotated, there are no exclusive display pieces).Very impressive collection
