Military 2 release?

#1

Post by derp »

Any word on the Military 2 or the release date? Also, any tips on searching the forum since "military 2" is too common to even search?

Im not sure how I feel about the M2. Military is perfection already. I sorta feel like the M2 is really a PM2XL. That being said, The M2 might be perfection.

I am excited to see what sprints happen though. And I am more likely to buy a sprint run

It'll definitely get released some time after today, or at least I'm pretty sure 😉


Keep in mind that although it was "revealed", it hasn't actually been revealed yet officially and when Eric did show it he even said it was super early and to not expect it any time soon.

I don't think it's going to be available before Spring time.
We probably wouldn't have seen it if they hadn't won the award with it.

Thank you for the info! I saw the video and got excited, but thought it was strange that I couldn’t find anything else.

In this case you won't find the info you're looking for (nobody knows) but, for future searches, try googling the words "spyderco forum," followed by the topic you're interested in. I never even try using the forum's native search feature.

site:forum.spyderco.com "military 2"

Type that into any search engine and it will look for "military 2" only on the Spyderco Forum.
So it goes.

Very much looking forward to this guy, especially in S110V, if that ever happens. Maybe in some years.
Will be a strict upgrade to the Paramilitary 2 for me.

2024?
I got “super excited” when I saw the YT videos and was ready to pull the trigger on one.
Now I’ve totally gone of the boil. I’m probably not alone. Possibly they’ve hit some supply/production/distribution problems. Sympathy for Spyderco as their CS is first class.

vivi in 2026: "bump"

i hope that's not the case, but if the swick is any indication, you probably shouldn't let anyone know what models you're excited about, vivi.

Telling, is it not, that the Military2 is not in the 2023 catalog?

I thought that too, but it hasn't officially been revealed. For all we know, it could pop up on the first Reveal of the year.

Had the MagnaCut UKPK been announced before the 2023 catalog?

It had not but I would consider that an exception, not a standard. It also happened last year with the Magnacut Native 5 Salt.

Yeah, it appears that the change of steel on those two (Native & UKPK) were almost considered a CQI change rather than a new product reveal.
