Can anyone point me to a knife that is close to a 704 in dimensions? I love almost everything about my old 704 except the cheesy black writing on the shield. Would love to get something the same shape, size, etc. that has better aesthetics. It is the perfect size and shape for carry in the office. I would guess a 503 or 55 is the closest, but y'all may know of something else. Or maybe, I will just continue to use the heck out of this one until the black writing wears off. . .

The 503 and 055 are slightly larger; but pretty darn close.

My 704 doesn't have cheesy black writing on the shield; so I don't mind carrying it.
 
Can't see the writing (or the shield, come to that) when using the knife ... why fret about it?
Is it possible to scrape the writing off, or remove it with fine steel wool?

Maybe apply a little stripper with a cotton swab - see if that helps. Otherwise, just keep rubbing the shield with your thumb.

None in stag and for some reason I couldn't remember seeing one, but after seeing the two above my memory is starting to jog:D:thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

It is one of my fav O rite small classy carry knives so my collection gets a new one added about once a year:D:D:D:D:thumbsup:

Not one in Ivory, so far 5:cool::confused:

Seriously though it is the best single blade slip joint in my opinion, but I guess it's only real competition is the 302;)
