The scale texture is pretty much perfect as peel ply G10/CF goes. It isn't quite as addicting as smooth G10, but it's pretty dang nice. The fit and finish is great, and the action is nice and smooth. This thing is a nice upgrade from the regular Military 2, which is already pretty great, especially if you have the blurple S110V version. If you're a fan of the Millie 2, don't think twice; go for it.
