The Spyderco Military allways appealed to me. It might not be the prettiest or thoughest production folding knife. On the other hand, the ergonomics and slicing ability on the Military are one of the best I've ever handled.
Neither is this Ti version a light weight. This frame lock variant, with metal lock bar insert, does provides the secureness I like in a folding knife. So, the weight is no issue for me at all. It's the same as a Strider SMF I'm used to. More specifications are down belowe.
The only disadvantage is the bead blasted heft. It sure looks prety when it comes straight out of the box, but most knife users know it will show wear signs rather easy. That being said, the knife was never developed to live it's life in a show case or display.
