That's a beautiful knife and those 940 scales are amazing.Ordered on a Friday, arrived the following Monday. Hogue Shipping is ridiculous. Couldn't be happier with the shipping and the knife!

The knife compares really well to the Benchmade 940.

I just ordered one. I was kinda on the fence until I just looked at your pictures. That knife hits all the right buttons for me. Titanium scales with built in traction, perfect blade to handle size ratio, right blade shape, magnacut steel, great weight and perfect size and most importantly no bearings(I hope) . Don't see the point of putting bearings in folding knives. I'm 76 and never had a problem getting my knives open. Thanks for sharing the pictures.Ordered on a Friday, arrived the following Monday.

I haven't had it apart, but looks like washers to me. Even so it's VERY smooth right out of the box. My first complaint with the knife is the action was far too loose when I got it to the point where there was some side to side blade play. I was able to adjust it out with a T8 and some thread locker, but would have expected better from a knife in this price range.I just ordered one.
