They might come around with other handle options. The MBC is a neat little knife. I know what you mean about the guard, but honestly it works without it. The first time I held it, I said "no way, I'm going to slip and cut myself." the more I held it, the more I realized the proper grip of the knife.
If no more are going to be released, or you like BP, there will always be the exchange.
Oh, and don't overlook the TG! It's a great knife! Best of luck.
Being that I have the NMSFNO and had an SFNO LE, I'd rather have the TG. That's mostly For the sake of diversity. I could never quite pinpoint what I'd use the SFNO for, but I damn sure know what my TG is for. I'll probably get balked at for saying that. If I could only have one and didn't have other general purpose blades in that size range, I'd take the SFNO. I'm going to stop talking. Hopefully my writing is coherent and thank you apple for autocorrect.
