It's too bad this knife was discontinued. For the price you got one hell of a knife.

The Blade Shape, size, weight, action, lock, length, pocket clip, etc... I love everything about it.

My only complain is the black blade finish - it's pretty weak and wish it was tougher.

Looks interesting. I would snag it if it was a blue class production model. Never seen this knife until now, but i like what i see.
 
It is one of my fav as well. Full flat ground, reverse tanto, very gun to open & close, and perfect edc size. Best AUS8 I ever had. 2 things I wish to be different: BK coating instead of BT. & smaller thumb stud. It has biggest Benchmade thumb stud ever!

Uh,new blade steel is mandatory...Aus8 is not on the top half of my list..
 
+1 on all of this. I'd love to see this come back as a full-fledged BM product in the standard BK coating and 154CM steel.
 
If you ever decide to stip it, there is a nice stonewash underneath. A little aggressive, but nice. Beware, it's PITA to try and get back together.

oh I like that. What did you use to strip the black finish off it?

Just regular paint stripper and a copper wire brush.
