• Happy Thanksgiving to all of you! I hope that you all have something to be grateful for this year and for many years to come
  • America has reached 250 years, and I am grateful to be here, in the best country in the world. Thank every one of you who helps make this country a better place, those who have gone before and risked it all, and those who've paid the ultimate price to make the United States what we are today.

    Happy Birthday America! Let Freedom Ring for all time!

Got to play with the new Benchmade Balisong today at the local range. having only handled cheap POS balis in the past, I was blown away by this puppy. nice light weight, handles great and has a nice lockup...

I can't tell you the discipline it took not to buy it (or the glock 20) If he'd had the plain edge version, I might not have been as lucky.

Strictly out of curiosity, what was the asking price of the little beauty?

MSRP is $160, street value of about $110-120. Can get it for less, but not yet, as shippments to most interned dealers has not started yet.
 
It's an interesting system isn't it? The retailers have all the knives and the internet dealers have all the orders. We have orders for 485 BM42 and 42S at the moment and aren't likely to get any at all this year. This retailer has one unsold sitting on a display. It is truly baffling. Take care.

Tom,

I've had my 42 for about three weeks now and let me tell ya'.......... it only gets better.

What you got from that first encounter is only the beginning my friend.

You'll soon be kicking yourself for not grabbing it.
