Differences:
-Handle Material: i prefer the canvas micarta of the 3 mil
-Glass Breaker: the 3 mil has a breaker where the steel is exposed and not fully coated, also this one is more pointy. (still absolutely safe for hands)
-sheath: Mil contains every sheth options that ESEE offer \plastic sheth, molle back, boot clip, para cord and cord lock, pair of molle locks\
I think the 3 mil is an absolutely modular knife system , so i would suggest to take that. The extra 5$ does not really drag your wallet imo.

mil has canvas micarta scales, comes with all the sheathin gear and it has a sharpened pommel with a serial number
"sharpened pommel" is a glass breaker.
And you have the sharpened back edge option -> http://eseeknives.com/clip_point.htm
