So Thursday I'm picking up my first Benchmade. After looking long and hard I've decided to get the 741 Onslaught, can't wait. As a federal inspector I carry mace and a stun gun on my job but am not allowed to carry my gun so I want as large a knife as I can get in my pocket, thus the 741, one of the largest folders out there and perfect for what I need. My favorite gun store in Portland Oregon carrys Benchmade and sells them for less than you can find them on the internet, sweet, can't wait for Thursday!
 
Cool. This knife intrigued me, and the one I was able to handle in a store had great fit & finish... though it is huge, especially for my tiny gnome hands--so I passed. (Enter the mini-Onslaught which is on the list.) Reminds me of a rhinoceros for some reason.
 
I recently got a mini onslaught very nice knife , reminds me of another Lum design , the Deja Vu. I also traded for a Bedlam with another member here, you might want to check that one out too. The Persian style blade is very cool.
 
Good choice! Would you mind telling me what shop your going to? I love in the Portland metro as well an would love to know a good place to buy some.
