M390

If they can make 20CV DLT PM2 for barely any more than the S30V PM2 then why aren't they making 20CV versions of all models normal production? Really hot steel and they're missing the boat IMHO

Who has one? What vendor has one in stock? My current EDC which is an M390 Military has the more conventional G-10 handle which is fine and I do like G-10>> but boy would I love an M390 Military with a Carbon Fiber handle. Unless the price is way up in the stratosphere.

Haven't yet gotten one of the 204P Military models and I've heard that there are a couple of well known dealers that still have them in stock. But I would take a CF, M390 unit over that any day.

Buy a cf/ti s90v military for $200 (kw still has it) and buy a green g10 204p military (discontinued buy show up here for $150-170) and then do a blade swap. You then have a cf/ti 204p (which is basically the same as m390) millie and a g10 s90 millie.

IMO this franken cf/ti 204p military is better than the original cf m390 military because you get RIL lock and CQI.

CF/M390 Millie was a KW exclusive and are long gone. I don't think the Military ever came in a g10/M390 combo. You can find the CF/M390 on the secondary market here for around $250. The 204p Military was only available through KW as well, but they have been sold out for weeks now. Good luck in your search.

Oh yes it did come with a G-10 handle and an M390 blade>> because mine is a digital camo G-10 handle with an M390 blade. Also I've talked to two other guys that have the exact same edition in the past year or so.

Digicam and M390?? I've carried a Military on and off for the last 20 years and I've never seen that combo before.

Excellent question! IMO this is the “Spyderco Question Of The Year” contest winner. Sal, I hope you see this one!

General is full of fickle nerds. They're obsession with curtain steels is damn annoying on the Exchange. PM2 in M390 can go for $400+. However a Military in nearly identical CTS 204P stays in stock for nearly 2 years.

The M390 CF Millie exsists already!

Same thing with HAP40 vs. Rex 45. Frenzy to get one. The other seems to be largely ignored.
