List Price: $160.00
Our Price: $96.00 (40% off) In-Stock
Is that a fair price ?
Or should I shop around ?
 
That's a good price. You might find a better price, somewhere sometime, sort of thing, but I wouldn't be sniffing at that one myself.
 
It's a good deal if it's the M2 blade version. Also make sure it's the newest version with the bronze washers.

I dont know about the brass washers ... Maybe someone can tell me if it does or does not have the brass washers from my last post . This guys has better prices then I found on any other site . Pluse hes a kewl guy . This willl be my second knife from him .
 
That's a good deal no matter what version it is. I don't think you'll find it much (if any) cheaper than that. Grab it.
 
Patryn is right. It's a good price whatever model it is.

It's just that the M2 version 710 (HS) will usually cost about US$20 more. If it is that model, then it's an even better price, obviously. From what you say though, I have a feeling it might be the 154CM stainless version - 710.

As Alpha is driving at though, you might well have a preference for M2 over the other, so it would be a good idea to check that. I'm assuming that the knife is one or the other - not an older model still, which you might also want to find out.

The phosphor bronze washers are preferred by all BM users. More robust and smoother ultimately. They were introduced in the Axis folders by BM about a year ago I think. So the vintage of the knife would tell you something. You can also tell what's there just by looking at the pivot area - don't have to dismantle. The old washers are black - synthetic. The new ones are bronze coloured, astonishing as that might seem.
 
Kennieyk, If thats from a store I'd like to know where it is :) (I'm getting a 710 and I've been shopping around lowest I can find is 110 US)
