Ti Millie - My Spydergrail !

[Nemo]

Hello,

the ergo and the design of Spyderco, the aura of Chris Reeve...:thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:
after 12 years of waiting here is my Spydergrail:

The sensual titanium handles are beyond tank built and the blade is vorpal: this is pocket lightsaber.
I will write a review soon and reedit the old Fred Perrin/Nemo review for the occasion.

Cheers
Nemo

Congratulations. Great photo by the way. Makes me even more anxious for mine to arrive, (preordered 9/30/09).

 

[Nemo]

Thank you !
Here is another one :

It would be my Grail knife as well if they made it in a lefty version. But they don't.

 

[Nemo]

Sorry to hear that.

Those titanium handles, which are beefier and heavier are just great for the drop latch opening...
Very addictive knife to open with.... KSCHLAK !!! Elegance...

Great pic ! Same Maxpedition addiction here !

It's my favorite knife, now. Feels super solid and the lock is so thick and well fitted.

 

[wongKI]

Lefty version. Please
(Thinner, M4 blade would be nice too)

I've never used a knife with titanium handles....any problem with slippery grip like with SS ?

I find titanium to be grippier than SS in general. The knife's ergos matter with all Ti knives IMHO. The Sage 2 is a great example of Ti scales not having a grip issue IMO. When it's in my hand I have no sensation of losing control at all.The Sage 2 is hard to beat for an all Ti EDC, all things considered.

I have a Ti Millie coming and look forward to getting it in my hands. I won't be a sure bet fanboy even though I love the Military though. I'll give my honest opinion after I get it . . .

And last but not least:
titanium handles don't shew your pocket like abbrasive G10 can.

I got countless pants ruined by tacticak G10 clipped to it.
Titanium is much more pants friendly !

 

[forcedestrike]

Vraiment sympa!

Love that knife so much, I have to agree that it is also my number one folder now!

 

[ToyKnife]

Excellent! I need to get a lefty variant in S90V or M4!

 

[VR4]

It would be my Grail knife as well if they made it in a lefty version. But they don't.

I thought I read somewhere that Spyderco would be releasing a lefty Military?

 

[kenthenoob]

i own one as well. first military. came so sharp. i shaved a hug X into my friends hairy arm.
i think the handles have a very light beadblast because indigo from my jeans rub onto it.

 

[Buffalohump]

Oof..... that's nice. Might have to get one of those.
