Benchmade advice please

[Appletz]

What you have EXACTLY described is a now discontinued Benchmade 705:

Oh god, I want this. That's pretty close to my perfect knife. Not sure if I $300 want it though. I think I would invest in a custom or gold class for that much. What a shame

Another option would be the 530. It is very thin and lightweight (53.3g) with a 83mm blade (just 7mm longer than the 707).

The 530 is nice, looks like a dagger though. I'm afraid people around me will not appreciate it much.

I thought a lot about the 705 but looks like the 707 is an improved version of the 705.
Thinner and with wider blade which doesn't look like fighting blade.

I use to edc 93mm alox Vics and I do like them so I hope that the 707 won't look or feel small.
It's coming in a few days so I'll be able to tell for sure.

The 707 is a VERY nice knife! It´s a big knife in a small package and it´s the smoothest Benchmade I ever handled.

So the Sequel 707 arrived and here are the promised pics along with the Delica 4.

The Sequel looks like a much smaller knive when closed, when in the jeans pocket and when in hand but has a longer cutting edge.
It’s very discreet, very easy to open and close and very comfortable.

However the Delica feels better in hand and this is the only part where the delica wins. One but important.

The Sequel is a very practical, quality and nice knife and I am very pleased with my purchase.
It replaced the Delica as an edc and that means a lot.

Thanks for the help everybody.
