Benchmade 912SBKD2

Are these folding knives still in production? I'm a bit late to the BM party but the BM fixed knives I was issued were very sturdy.. And I would like to purchase a folder from the same manufacturer.. I've taken a liking to the above mentioned model, but can't find them anywhere for a decent price (< $150)

Damn. Thanks anyways bud. I guess I'll look around some random websites for one.

Which BM model is the closest successor featuring a tanto blade, partial serration, assisted opening?

There's a new barrage. The 583, that comes in that configuration. but its an axis lock of course.

I have a limited edition barrage (blue handles) and I will say that its one of the more powerful assisted openers. I really enjoy flicking it open. THWACK!

...and there are a couple autos with tanto/partially serrated blades. The Stryker being one of them.

Not really a tanto, but this could be a contender as well.

would you be open to another benchmade knife that is similar?

how about the benchmade HK nitrous blitz (model #14460SBT), it will run you about $90.



p.s.i didn't realize that frenchmade posted the same knife

That "blitz" model is nasty too bad I don't own a H&K firearm..

There's a damn mountain of knives from BM.. I'm loving the Presidio, Barrage 583SBK (as mentioned above), 950SBK Rift Osbourne, 710SBKD2

I was going to pull the trigger on that one but my state's laws are pointing to illegal

[frenchmade]

good call. I live in Vancouver where autos are also illegal. I still bought a couple of benchmade autos. But I shouldn't have, because I REALLY want to carry them
