EDIT: UPS took its sweet time but I got the knife today. Updated the original post with some pics. Not the best lighting but man I'm digging this. Sharp, centered, and no blade play. Great job on this one @Benchmade

Check out the pics below.

Specs:
CPM20cv Blade
Black Bolster with black hardware
Desert Tan G10 scales and back spacer
Brass Pivot Ring

Nice!
Love mine, enough to customize my custom CR with some natural jade scales machined for right hand carry and jade backspacer from Rogue.
Should be shipped soon.

I didn't have a huge issue with the aesthetics of the standard. I really wanted 20cv and desert tan is a nice look. Glad you're enjoying yours!
 
I did! The stock pics are showing it to be nearly beige, but the Desert Tan on my MB is significantly darker than that.

I thought so. I meant to look up your thread before ordering to verify. I've been toying with the idea of the custom for a couple of weeks. Finally gave in this morning.
 
Looks sweet! Post pics when you get it in. I’ve pretty much decided if they offer the Mini Crooked River on the custom shop and/or release the G10 version I’ll buy one but alas they haven’t done either unfortunately

I'm hoping I like it as much as I think I will. The only thing I was iffy about was the backspacer. I went desert tan to match the scales but wondering if I should have done black? I guess time will tell. :)

I haven't gotten an email yet that it has started. Hopefully I will soon!

I really want to see some pics when you get it in hand.
 
That looks great man. Nice choice.

Thanks man. I think it's gonna be a good looking knife!

Called Benchmade today and they said it was usually a 7 - 10 day build time. Hopefully it'll be shipped soon. I'm pretty excited to get it.

Throw up some pictures when you get em! I've been eyeing the natural Jade scales for mine but would like to see them in person.
