Bm 440

fudo · Jun 16, 2005

I stopped at Outdoor America in OKC yesterday. I happened to be there at the same time as the BM factory rep. He showed me the new little FB Snody knives and the one that I really liked, the Model 440. It's a Wharncliffe with a frame chiseled like knapped flint and wood inlays. It is a very attractive gentleman's knife that moved right to the head of my "next acquisition" list.
Maybe someone can post a photo of it.

They have all of the new BM knives. Some of them didn't do anything for me due to poor handle design. I don't have any hard corners on my hands, so I don't like them on handles of tools. The little Snody FB, the "Activator," I think is a very nice S30V FB in a sheath that is way too large and vertical, instead of horozontal, which would suit this knife perfectly.. I'm thinking of a nice Kenny Rowe sheath in Ostrich.
Ken at Knives and More is a good guy and has a cool store. I used to hang around there alot, but I had heart surgery and I haven't been out much lately.
