Anybody planning to get this.I do not at the moment.Not sure of benchmade's decision to use brightly colored black/blue g-10 and 154CM but the auto assisted and new ambidextrous push button lock release is neat through.
 
I am in on this one, I love different locking mechanisms, and im also a sucker for multicolored g10. I hate black checkered g10 so this knife seems right up my alley.Wish it was a little cheaper, but I think its a pretty cool knife.And to be able to release te lock from one side only is a nice option.
 
I have one and I like it a lot. Benchmade has a special place in my heart because I'm a lefty. The washers on this knife are HUGE. The safety feels more substantial than the Barrage and it's flow through with skeletonized steel liners. Not sure of the weight off hand but It feels very close to the Barrage.

Here is an Imgur album I made of the knife. http://imgur.com/a/gpLn9

It's my new favorite Benchmade. I really love the blade shape and the handle shape. The APB is a bit fiddly, I like the Axis Assist better, but it seems to hold the knife open quite well, and it has a lock on it, so...I love it. If you are already a fan of the Grip and the Barrage, you may too.
