Just bought an M4 Contego: my first benchmade ever

Very well designed tactical folder. Great action and lock. Great steel(if you can keep it oiled) and great traction. Extremely strong too. Only thing I'd change is the handle scales. They have sharp corners and need to be rounded out.
 
I used mine to cut up a rotisserie chicken two weeks ago. Rinsed it off with water afterwards and no rust that I can see. Pretty happy with that, although I actually like the patina look on knives.
 
I carry mine every single day. It kicks my Sebenza out of my pocket regularly. I sharpened it to 30º inclusive when I got it, months later it's still sharp! I'm thinking about going to 25° because I believe it can handle that, no problem. Except for an Opinel, and a GEC carver it's the most wicked cutter I've ever had.
