Searched for a list of folders with a single M390 blade steel in this forum but none could be found. There has to be a lot more than the following and from more manufacturers?

Zero Tolerance:
  • 0801CF
  • 0350M390
  • 0777M390

Benchmade:
  • 7505
  • 707-1201
  • 586
  • 480-1
  • 581
  • 755 MPR
  • 710-1
  • 710DLC-1

Note: The Kershaw Volt 3600 used a composite blade of Bohler M390 Powder Steel for the cutting edge and CPM D2 Tool steel for the blade spine.
 
Spyderco has done two sprint run of the M390 Para II. I believe there will probably be another, but not sure when.
 
I had no idea there was a ZT 0350 with M390? Was this a LE?

Spyderco Plain Edge M390 Blue G-10 Paramilitary 2 Bento Box Shop Exclusive?
 
Spyderco Military CF and M390 goodness

Spyderco Carbon Fiber & M390 Military C36CFM390P?

At 4.2 ounces it weighs about the same as my G10 version which is great. My Military Titanium C36TIP is kind of stout at 5.9 ounces.
 
I've seen BM730 Ares popping up from time to time sporting the M390 steel.

Yup, there are two versions of the m390 730 Ares, one with black g10 and a satin finish and the other with a black coated blade and green and black g10. Fantastic knife by the way, mine sees quite a bit of pocket time.
 
I just ordered a custom knife with this steel, I have never used it before but have high hopes after all that I have read!

BM 730BK-1203 and 730-101?
 
Doesn't have to be Bohler M390. What are the designations of the similar formulae?

Carpenter CTS-204p, Duratech 20CV are both very similar in composition to Bohler Uddeholm's M390.

So if the non-Bohler brand versions are in, that opens up knives like the Southard flipper or PM2 in CTS-204p, for example.
