Anyone pick one of these up yet? I have one on order but I wanted to find out if anyone else had getten theirs yet and what they thought of it. Post pics if ya got em.
 
that is a great looking knife.... titanium liners, S30V... everything
you could ever want! (ok a Ferrari Enzo would be nice also)
 
I think they won't be available until the end of March sometime. I want one too!
 
Why the hell did Benchmade cheap-out on the liners? Locking-side is titanium, while the other is stainless steel. Why? All of their other new titanium locking-liner knives feature both sides with titanium. I know it's a pretty moot point, but with so much attention to detail on that knife, along with its premium materials, why throw a stainless steel liner on the other side to save a buck?

If the savings means a more affordable knife, then I see no problem with it.
Steel liners have never been a problem for me.
 
Even though both are technically different, you have to admit they are similar. Both are Lum designs. I would like to see a comparison to the Spyderco Lum.
 
It's the new knife I'm most looking forward to buying -

(another one I'm ready to grab is the new CRKT Hissatsu folder - assuming it's not made in mainland China)
 
I was over at www.arizonacustomknives.com and browsing under the SOLD KNIVES just to see some different type knives. Clicked on Bob Lums name and up comes a knife he calls the "All Rounder" which is a dead ringer for the BM Dejavoo. That custom version is a good looking knife!

Yes and no. The smaller Dejavoo is an excellent production version of Bob's custom version. The larger Dejavoo has different lines. I prefer Bob's custom version of the Larger folder. There's a more graceful curve to the handles.
 
I only have a few BMs but the ones I have, I really like. I buy 10 Spdercos for every BM I buy but the Dejavoo is a must have. It looks about perfect for me. If it is not a brick, I will buy it. Anyone know what it weighs?
 
Wow, a Benchmade with a round hole, and nobody has said that Benchmade sucks for "stealing" the technology of a hole from Spyderco! The community is wisening...

its been said....again...and again...and again, in other threads. No reason to beat a dead horse, just like they rounded the holes in the grippys. You can either not buy one or buy one, the options wont change.
