Not enough. It just did't lock up at all. Both of the M390s I've got have very early engagement but they do have full engagement of the locking leaf. The first blade I swapped into the Ti/G10 handle set started to engage but you could unlock the blade with a single finger pressure, forget any real pressure on the spine. The second blade works fine, although as you can see it's still on the early side, but the M4 blade was (by eye, not but instrument) the same.

Safety safety safety safety safety. I've grown attached to my fingers. Blade swaps need to be done carefully by careful people if bad results are to be avoided...yes, I know I am a broken record. I have had too many finger/hand injuries over the decades... :(

This happened when I did this same exact thing to my xhp millie..I fixed it by rotating the stop pin until the lockbar engaged. It was super early, but over time and use it now locks up right at 50

..this may not work for all of them though.

In theory, rotating the stop pin shouldn't work at all because it's supposed to be concentric. But theory and real life don't coincide as often as I'd like to think. :eek: :D :cool: It is definitely nice when it works! :)
 
I paid for my two a few minutes ago - got the email asking for the remainder so I guess I should have a couple M390 Militarys on the way to me next week! :)
 
The website is saying 2/22, so with priority mail, everyone in the ConUS ought to have them by Saturday, assuming USPS doesn't discontinue Saturday delivery between now and then. :(

Yep, I saw that right after I posted. I can deal with a week from now.
 
I think my CC was charged today. I have less money, but don't have a formal charge from anywhere.

Maybe the ZDP ladybug I ordered yesterday and the M390 military will come on the same day.
 
Woohoo! Just saw I was paid on kw website! Should be soon now! I was a nov order so I'm happily surprised !

In theory, yes..but if the pin or the hole are slightly off, sometimes it's enough to make a difference.

I got mine today..centered blade, 30% lockup, smooth as glass
 
Let me know ;) LOL!

Yes - I think these are the smoothest Militarys I've owned or handled.
