Benchmade proper with custom scales

I'm going to add a very nice 1st production run Benchmade proper to this sale. It originally had green micarta slabs, which I removed (and will include in this sale) and replaced with beautifully figured desert ironwood; fitted, shaped, and polished by @Rose and Thistle Custom. It is nicely contoured and beautiful to look at and hold. I also did some re-profiling work on the handle (removing just a bit of material at the based to make the curve there less pronounced) and added a swedge on both sides of the clip point, which I think improves the look quite a bit. It has been lightly used, but well-sharpened to a keen edge on water stones. It comes with the original packaging and scales. Asking $115; now $105. SOLD
