Long time reader on this forum. Joined today to ask this question. Benchmade 943 is my favorite knife. They are getting very collectible and expensive. Do any of you own the 943 and a Hogue mysto? How do they compare. These look so similar I think the mysto could be a good alternative for half the cost. Thanks in advance for your advice.
 
I do t have a Hogue Mysto, but I do have a BM940 and BM942.

I’ve found similar knives never scratch the itch when you want an exact knife. You only live once. Save up and get the one you actually want would be my advice!

Also a knife being “collectible” should never stop you from buying and using the hell out of one! I hate safe queens and only have 2 duplicate knives brand new in their boxes (Benchmade 710D2 and TC “A New Day” Barlow) and those are just to replace some Favorite EDCs if I ever loose my carry ones.
 
Check the Kershaw Bel-Air. There's a new bowie version that would be like a 943 shorty.

Tactile Maverick for a few bucks more.
