Agree so don’t. There’s the Military which Millie also notates and then there’s the lesser comp lock one that needs the 2 behind it.

Re: St. Nicks 4V Military 1
The problem for me is that I get hit with anniversary, Christmas, and wife's birthday, bam, bam, bam, in rapid succession. It is not a good time for me to buy a knife, but I would like one of these.

Re: St. Nicks 4V Military 1
I guess I'm not the only one that has that kind of bad timing! My wife's birthday is December 19th, then Christmas, then our dating anniversary...which still matters apparently haha, in Mid Jan, then the kids birthday last day of Jan, then Valentines day.
Money just flies left and right! I really hope this doesn't happen until sometime in March.

Re: St. Nicks 4V Military 1
Now this is what I'll get! Or try to!
It took everything I had to not snatch up that Manix XL yesterday! I still wish I had snagged one.
But, a Millie in 4v in that Red & Black......frogettuhboutit

Re: St. Nicks 4V Military 1
I tend to prefer Satin. Only have one coated blade now. It's a preference. DLC is awesome stuff. I really really like the entire SNK exclusive package. A lot. Kicked myself for not getting the Native Chief. I don't think I can miss this. Shouldn't buy anything until 2023. But I will regret not getting this.
What do y'all think the next SNK surprises will be?

Re: St. Nicks 4V Military 1
I like the idea of a 4V OG Millie. I’ve been selling off knives to put $$ towards a canoe though, so buying more isn’t really in the cards. Besides I’m starting to soften up on my true steel needs. The variation is fun, but taking an honest look do I need more than VG10 or S30V offer? Probably not. And I have the CRUWEAR Millie so I’m not really in need, ya know?
Re: St. Nicks 4V Military 1
They just sold me my first Manix XL, they may as well sell me my first Millie.

I don’t like coated blades much but I’ll buy pretty much any Military.
I remember quite a few requests for red scales when red was strictly reserved for trainers.

I dont have a Millie, but **** sure I would try for this one!
Re: St. Nicks 4V Military 1
If/when this St. Nick’s Exclusive Military Liner Lock is released it could well be the last of its line and certainly the first Sprint/Exclusive since February 2019.
7 new Military models were released from May 2016 to February 2019 all with the CQI enhancements. Nothing since February 2019 when the BladeHQ exclusive CPM-M4 Black DLC Blade with Natural G-10 was released.
The CQI enhancements came out in May 2016:

- Larger lanyard hole
- Stepped stop pin
- New clip

Re: St. Nicks 4V Military 1
I'm out on this one as I don't care for linerlocks, but my Para3 and Native chief are 2 of my favorites, not to mentions 4V is in my top 5 steels. The red g-10 from St. Nicks are about my only g-10 that I've not wanted to upgrade to Micarta or a different color.

Re: St. Nicks 4V Military 1
I will call it the PM2 XL now. Lock changes alters the soul of the knife. I will get one though. It will be a great fidget knife. I may wait till it comes in an interesting steel though and not S30V (not that there is anything wrong with that)5-by-5 wrote: ↑Sat Oct 22, 2022 10:08 amLOL'd Millie for life!

Re: St. Nicks 4V Military 1
Would like one, but if there is no tip up carry I will pass. I've played with a millie before, and enjoyed it, save for that clip position. No, I don't need it to be tip up, but the clip annoys me when using the knife when it is in tip down position.
Now if they do a police 4 I'd be down! Or a PM XL... Really looking forward to that.

Re: St. Nicks 4V Military 1
The official name of the knife is Military. I guarantee it won't say Military 1 on the box. So not sure why the need to call it the Military 1. The Military 2 will be the one that denotes a changetwinboysdad wrote: ↑Sat Oct 22, 2022 9:04 amAgree so don’t.

Military - Is the original with liner lock
Military 2 - Is the new version with comp lock

Re: St. Nicks 4V Military 1
Auto buy. I love 4v. I love red and black. I love my 4v with DLC. This is likely to be one of the last iterations of the Military. I only hope I can get one, as I expect a massive frenzy at drop.
