Just got one, and man this thing is a little baby compared to the rest of my fixed blades BUT, its still a great knife of course. I've always wanted a Benchmade Nimravus since I love their folders so much.
Specs:
Benchmade Specifications:
Overall Length: 9.45"
Blade Length: 4.50"
Blade Thickness: 0.115"
Blade Material: 154CM
Blade Hardness: 58-60 HRC
Blade Style: Drop Point
Weight: 6.20 oz.
Summary of what I think of it:
1) Super grippy, aluminum handles are unbelievably grippy and comfortable.
2) Thin!!! Like REALLY THIN. Thin is good for fighting and slicing which is great for this knife. If you want a fixed blade for chopping get a Becker.
3) Unusual sheath. Sheath is kinda weird, there's like padding inside the plastic insert, probably to keep the blade scratch free. Sheath keeps the blade locked in like a maximum security prison, doesn't budge but easy to take out when needed still.
4) 154CM steel. Good steel, easy to sharpen, likes shiny polished edges.
5) Got mine with serrations since it's mainly for fighting or light tasks.
Overall, I'd give it a 9/10, it's my smallest fixed and at 4.50in blade, it's a bit too small for me but great nevertheless its a great knife.
Blade thickness
SP10 is Huge compared to it.
