Blade HQ's Shot Show 2016/Benchmade video.

Thanks for posting the video. Definitely some nice stuff coming for 2016...

I guess now I don't have to wonder if the blue liner was removable. Not that I was planning on it, but others have asked.
 
Some descent stuff. Nothing dying to get but 928 looks better than I thought it would be. Mostly same old.
 
Somehow the video made me even more stoked about the Arvensis. Also, the 928 Osborne is way beefier looking in the video than it seemed in earlier photos. Kind of digging it after all.
 
The Crooked River looks like a beast as well. Not sure why I need it... but I need it!

Honestly, if I get nothing that debuted at SHOT but the Crooked River I'll still be happy. There are a few others I'd like to pick up, but it's the only one that hit all the right buttons in terms of looks, size, materials, lock and practicality. I'll have to get it in hand to be sure, but this one honestly may displace my Manix 2 XL and that's saying a lot.
 
Watching this video confirmed the 119 and Crooked River look really great. Also, the 928 which I had no interest in before looks really great.
 
698 Foray, HUNT Crooked River, 765 and of course the new g10 griptilians are calling out to me. I hope my local store gets them soon.
 
698 Foray for sure with a nice slim design, 3.25" 20CV blade and contoured G-10 all for just $191.25!

I really like the 765 Mini with a 3.25" M390 blade but it's too much at $301.75! Still, an improvement over my 761.

928 still looks too funky with the odd colors. This should've been all titanium or even CF on the presentation side.

Hunt 15080-2 Crooked River is a definite may be. Looks classy and priced to move.
