I shave every day with a str8 razor, and I learned everything at B&B - great forum indeed :)

Either the M390 CF Millie (my current EDC), or the Phil Wilson S90V fixed blade.

Any more news on the Cruwear Mili? Anticipated timeline?

My beater knife is my ZDP-189 DragonFly. It is small, it is very sharp, and I would not get upset if I loose it break it, etc., which is why many times I carry it as my backup/second knife (the...

That is also why I am big believer in having mentors. I am fortunate enough to have two: one for electronics, and one for machining - totally invaluable!

Great review. My go-to knife is my CF M390 Millie. It feels great in the hand and it just plain works great.

I buy very few knives now, so I am very picky/selective. For me, in order:
- Made by Spyderco
- The steel used
- The design/application

To give you an idea, these are the only 3x knives in my...

I got one of those CF M390's - they work/cut great. I would not worry about it ;)

Well said Joe. I much prefer to carry/use my CF M390 Millie, but I have not sold the 20CP PM2 simply because the steel is that good. It has become my EDC when going to the office since it is...

EDC except at work = CF M390 Millie
At work = CTS-20CP PM2
backup = ZDP DragonFly

My go-to knife is my CF M390 Millie.

My backup (or for wearing at the office) is a CTS-20cp Para 2.

My backup to my backup is a ZPD Dragonfly.

That is actually a pet peeve of mine. Why they remove the price it was sold? I know it is because they took/accepted a lower offer via email/PM, but it would be much more helpful to the community...

Yup. It is not the monetary loss from Spyderco loosing that sale to a Chinese knock-off (if that person is not willing to pay for a real Spyderco, it is not really a lost sale anyway).

The real...

No, what I meant was that I carry my right-handed CF M390 Millie in either my left front pocket or left rear pocket, and I can get to it and operate it perfectly with my left hand, just as the video...

Yes, my knife is after all the right-hand model, but within a very short time I also got used to getting the knife in/out of my left front/back pocket with my left hand with the clip like that. It...

Here is a short video of how I open/close a "right-handed" (standard model) Spyderco Military with my left hand:

The CF M390 is also a liner lock. But what is unique in the Millie is the huge opening in the left scale (opposite to the clip) since it was designed to be able to be used to press the liner lock...

I have both, and they are very different. My Large Left Sebie I ordered as a custom order directly from CR:

And here is my EDC, the CF M390 Millie:...

Following the advice of several in here, I tried the CF M390 "regular" Millie and learned/got used to using it with my left hand. In fact the same general grip works as well for the PM2, so I ended...

Here in TX, except for when I go to work in the office, I always have this military with me:
