Mine is on its way as we'll, should have it in a couple of days.
 
Just got mine - for me everything about it is better than my 912 & 910HSSR. Love it!
 
Sorry for the iphone pics.....

Out of the 3, the Axis feels the best in-hand It fills the hand better, and the slight extra weight is nice. Love the G10 - kinda like what Emerson used to use, before they started with the really aggressive stuff. Overall, VERY happy with it, and I will be ordering the other configurations.











 
Oh Yah! Thanks for the pics, that makes the wait alittle easier. Mine shipped this morning may not get mine till Monday!
 
I just wanna know what they were thinking with those 2 lines running down the handle :barf:
 
Do you like that thumb disc? How is it compared to the stud? I've got an emerson with a disk and im not really a fan.
 
Finally here! Like an old friend coming home. Love it!!


Two of my favorites!!

i received mine and i really like the knife, however the position of the jimping and the newly added raised portion of the g10 guard/ramp behind the steel jimping just doesnt make sense to me. when i hold the knife, my thumb sits on the blade spine right in front of the jimping. and holding the knife with my thumb right on the jimping and thumb ramp/guard not only feels terrible but its hard to do because of how small the jimping area is. i like the knife but when i hold i really wonder if the guys at benchmade ever bothered to hold it or use it. is anyone else slightly annoyed with the position of the jimping and the new raised part of the scale right behind it ? if they would have left the handle shape the exact same as before the knife would have been much better. it makes the jimping and the raised guard useless to me.
 
They used the handle from the Triage which had the thumb ramp. If find it fine myself. Great knife. Got the full size and Mini version. Highly recommend.
