Help identify older benchmade

[Bpgunleather]

I bought this knife New Years ago it's been in my safe since. Never even cut paper. Now I can't find the box and I'm curious the exact model. I think it's an afo? There is no safety and no belt clip.
Thanks for any help!

Yes it's an AFO. If I remember correctly, there was a limited run on the handle color. ATS-34 steel. The early models lacked a safety. I have a 2004 model which was the first year with the satin finished blade.

Thanks! I think it was purchased around 99/2000?
