    Military, Paramilitary 2 and Paramilitary 3.

    I've had the Paramilitary 3 for a while now. My wife got me the other 2. They arrived in the mail this afternoon.

      Bought the Off Grid Sea Dog and love it so trying their small Damascus liner lock.

        I have 1 of each and actually think the Military is a different type of knife because it uses a liner instead of compression lock but they do share the same general blade/handle shape/design (adjusted for the size differences).
        Thanks.

        I agree. The Military almost feels like higher end part of the Resilience, Tenacious, Persistence and Ambitious series. A much higher upgrade.

          I've become quite a Morakniv, fanboy. Bought four over the last, couple months! They're cheap, they have a lifetime warranty. GREAT for normal bushcraft use, although, I wouldn't advise batoning with it. Love the carbon steel ones.

                They are great beater knives. I was pleasantly surprised at the quality. These are 3 years old. Used a lot in the garden + camping and fishing trips. They clean up real well. Orange Glow and Neon Leon.

                    Those aren't great "beater" knives. Those are great knives period. Knives don't have to to tacticool and expensive to be good.

                      No argument here. It's a term of endearment - 'beater'.

                      Did their job on 4 huge wild pigs today.
                      In fact, it was an 'all hands on deck' outing.

                      Knocking on 4 years. Those knives have taken, ahem, a real beating. We use them in the garden, field and boat. We've used them to dig up root vegetables and great for weeding the garden too; real 'beaters' those knives. I'm not sure if I'd dig around the dirt and weed with any of my other knives. Besides why would I? That's what my 'beater' knives are for. [emoji16]

                      As I've said before they clean up real well.

                          Picked up a ZT 0450 for $150 on Amazon.

                          Any tips to make sure its legit and not a copy?
                          None of my posts are serious or real, nothing I post is legal advice.

                            Besides look and feel, fit/finish... I'll post exact weight for you later. Should be about 2.9 ounce, but I'll weigh mine. Great little knife.

                              Good looking knives. Where did you buy them? CK? Thanks.

                                Def a great price on it! How do you like the action?
