Benchmade 940 reblade project

I’m sure looking forward to this one. This next batch that he got the deposits on already will my first reblade from Josh. I’ve acquired my 940-2 and my parts are trickling in.

I’ve lapped and polished my bronze washers and sooo smooth with this little stock blade, crazy smooth! Gonna be even better with a blade that has some heft behind it!
 
Got all my accessories on my donor 940-2 and just ready for her new blade. Turned out busier than I was expecting, so hopefully that big, shiny, new beautiful blade will detract away from the bizzzy 🐝 lol

Got the Phosphor Bronze washers all lapped and highly polished. Smooooth as silk now, well even smoother than they already are.

Got a Ti backspacer put in that may or may not fit. May have to take the Dremel to it if not, worst case I’ll just put the barrel spacers back in.

Love the new Sheepsfoot reblades, the new thumb hole looks very refined on this blade shape. I'm a fan!

Fellow Acid Wash owner! Nice!
100% lucked into it ... I just didn't know. I ordered the satin (and love the satin) and when I saw there was actually an extra and Josh said that I'd be happy with the acid I rolled the dice. As usual, he was right. I love the satin but if I'd have known I might have tried to buy 3 in acid wash. Just dumb luck.

This is why I don't weigh in when he asks us what we want. Because I end up SO much happier with whatever he actually does than what I would have picked at the time.
