What is a LAME knife? How can I tell if my knife is LAME?
LAME refers to a miss-stamped knife, usually a S30V knife stamped as BG42. A BG42 knifes stripes have a red tinge to them where as a S30V knifes stripes are black. If your knife has black stripes with no red tinge and it is stamped BG42, then you have a LAME knife. The LAME ARs also had larger stop pins then usual and most had black belt clips. Although there were a few double LAME ARs which were miss-stamped and had silver belt clips.
No problem, I picked this knife up from a buddy, I've kinda always carried Benchmades even while overseas, but this AR is a "kick ass" the blade is huge and its a very "beefy" knife.

You could get some tritium thumb studs from tad gear and do that. Would give you thumb studs on both sides and would look sharp. Do you have pics the of single stud? I know that for the double studs, it's recommend to first heat it with a hair dryer and then use a leather cloth and pliers to remove the studs without marring them.
Hope this helps.
