I have recieved my 43! (and why knifezilla rules)

[Darth Detori]

This is what happened: I ordered a BM43 from triple aught design and ordered overnight shipping (because I'm quite impatient). turns out they didn't have any in. So I cancelled that order, and then went to Knifezilla on friday. Thinking UPS delivers on saturdays, I got overnight shipping there too. But those slick devils there just charged me for normal shipping since it took three days anyway
very awesome of them to do that

anyway, my GOD this thing is SWEET! it flips like a dream and is as fast as lightening. the blade profile is so great it makes one wonder why they used the weehawk as the original.

Go Benchmade!
I can't wait to order a 47BLK

now I'm off to see what clay can hook me up with!

I've seen a lot of specs for the 42s, and they say the blade is 1/8th'' thick, or .125". The specs for the 43 at Knifezilla say the blade is .18, which is significantly greater than 1/8th.

Is your knife, Darth, really this thick?

I don't have any measuring tools on hand, but I can tell you (from putting one on top of the other) that they're about (if not exactly) the same width.

must be a typo or something

Best guess is the .18 was supposed to be 1/8....betcha!

Yeah KnifeZilla and Josh rule

My new BM42 should come on Friday, oh I'm so very, very, very, very, very, very excited
