Help IDing this Balisong

Can anyone tell me what model this is? And if it being 9 of 10 increases value?

I've never seen Benchmade knives etched like that...

Fake 42?

Looks like an old PCC/Benchmade balisong (pinned, stainless steel handles), but I have never seen such version.

It came from a gun and knife collector. Most of the knives I got were from the 90's. Judging from the other knives I got and the quality of it, I doubt it's a fake.

Why not email Benchmade some pics? If it's real I bet they'd get a kick out of telling you about it.

I did. I'm waiting for a response from them.

Gave the "ears" been removed? Also the script looks a little like after market...not typical BM printing.

I don't know. That's part of what's made it hard to ID. No ears, strange script.
