Ok, I got BM 930 Kulgera few days ago. This is first Benchmade that had given me: So strong Wow factor out of box. I got now:
BM Mini-Ritter-grip BM 558 in M4 steel
BM 527 Pardue Ultra
BM 551 Griptillian with Custom Scales
and now BM 930 Kulgera.
I had BM 940 Osbourne but I traded it away because: Blade was off centered constantly even after adjusting pivot. Pivot wouldn't stay without loctite so that blade wouldn't have bladeplay (loctite helped) and most of all, I couldn't bring myself to like the Metal handles.
930 is... well... awesome. It feels good in my hands. Blade if perfectly center, pivot won't develop any bladeplay no matter how I open it. Blade was very sharp out of box, not Spyderco Sharp but with few light passes with ceramic rod's blade became hair popping sharp. While being longest blade I have now in EDC rotation knife doesn't feel big, thanks being slim. I could trade away all my modern folder's but my BM 930 Kulgera and Spyderco Sage 1.
