Last S90V Military I saw go on the big auction site went for > $450, which is really amazing.
 
I'd imagine the knife to hope for would be a carbon fiber/Ti framelock S90V Military, but I'd settle for a simple G10 handled linerlock S90V Millie. ;)
 
Whyy do you guuys think the cts para isn't getting the same mystical prices of the s90 para,mil,or manix bring in ?even thoughh they are done running them I still see them going for Msrp in the exchange. They have been shown to hold an edge as well if not better then s90. I know Cf vs g10 but that doesn't make up the 200 dollar differance.

They were cheaper, 20CP hasn't been around at all until now so it doesn't have the reputation that S90V does.

Between the two S90V is a more aggressive cutter though, edge retention is for all practical purposes the same and it will take CATRA to see the difference between them at the same hardness.
 
Are they really done with them? I just got a notice the other day of a dealer getting some in.
 
That would be my guess, too. Lower starting price almost always translates to lower resale prices, and S90V has "brand name" recognition and a track record that commands a price point in the market - CTS--20CP hasn't had a chance to build either - yet. ;)

I'd like to know who that dealer is.....I thought the sprint run of 1200 s90s knives sold out a few years ago.:rolleyes::confused:
 
it better have lol.... i just splurged on one.

id like to see the 20cp model come out in CF/ti framelock
 
i really regret letting my s90v military go!

fortunately the para 2 in cf/s90v makes up for it...my favorite edc carry hands down!
 
My bad, I was talking about post 10 where spydusse seems to imply that the cp20 run is done. I wasn't talking about s90v. I may have misread his post.
