I guess I need to change my signature to add my Butterfly Brigade member #812 to the list.

So, does your number go up or down when you sell several in order to get different, nicer Benchmades?

My past list:
812s-LH
520bk-1101
556
581
585
950
140bt

Current list:
812s-LH
520bk-1101
581
586
810
 
I would love to grab #4 if possible (#2 taken by Aquaman67) . Though I'm below the 50 post threshold (~25 posts).

My current list: 940S preproduction (#990), 940ti (#10), 943, 670, 551 154CM stonewashed on Cuscadi G10, 551BK-1301 (#121, #501), 551BK-1301 #716 blade on Cuscadi CF, 551-101 gold (#53), 525-81 gold (#100), 530-1302 (#7), 557, 32 Bali, 745

Sorry but I claimed #2 in the 9th post in this thread.

Nice collection you have BTW. Very nice.

This thread has been slowly sinking to be back pages.

Has this ever received the official go ahead from BM?

Don’t take this as official by any means, but I thought I’d go through this thread first, and then this one too, and update the list of requested numbers. I did not double check so it's possible I missed some requests and I did not verify post counts. The names without a number did not request a specific number or requested numbers previously requested by someone else. I did not want to take the liberty of assigning numbers outside of those requested first in this sign-up thread.

The other order of business would seem to be the name of the group. I’m sure there will be some other ideas but so far, the following names have been proposed:

Butterfly Effect
Butterfly Brigade
Benchmade Squad
Benchmade Brigade
Band of Benchmade

I think we ought to put this up for vote once everyone has a chance to discuss this list and provide any other suggestions.
 
That was a non-trivial time investment. :eek: :thumbup: :biggrin:

Alright enough with the BS :p, We got the green light from Benchmade months ago...

Let's make it official, it's Benchmade Brigade (or BM Brigade for short)

That's why I suggested it goes up for a vote once people have had a chance to chime in with any other suggestions.

And the there is the matter of who wants to step up and manage the member list, verify posts and such. Somebody has to oversee this just a bit, don't you think?
