Discontinued Models That You Wish Were Still Around

The Benchmade AFCK in ATS-34. That was the knife that got me into knife collecting and I will always have it and would have to get another.

Yup, same. I once had three of them One was stolen by an NYPD officer along with my Spyderco Delica when I was detained. The young, and yeah I'll say it, incredibly stupid officer thought that the exposed pivot pin on my Delica was the button of a switch-blade knife. He practically put a huge blister on his thumb the number of times he kept pressing the "button." :rolleyes:

I said nothing, only because a young attractive female officer whom he clearly was trying to impress; stood next to him. I'm not stupid enough to further embarrass another guy in front of the chick he has a crush on. Especially not one with a gun and badge. Why was he stupid?..... Two most popular duty knives with officers at the time were the Delica and the Endura. (Back before prices flew well north on those models). Yeah, he should have known better.

Another one was stolen by a so-called family friend about 14 years ago when I moved.

The last one is in a cabinet right behind me where it has been safe for many years. I'll part with it when Hell freezes over.... and Satan starts giving away free snowcones.
