Mini crooked river is here!

[PWatkins]

I know this was on a ton of people's wish list for 2018 so I thought I give a heads up. Got a email from bladehq today and these are available for pre-order

Benchmade looks to be killing it n 2018

Was hoping for a super

Excited about this one. I lived the look, but just couldn't get around the enormity of the original.

Just got the email from Benchmade. Lots of mini-stuff. This is gonna take some restraint.

I'll never own one, but I have seen absolutely nothing to dislike about the crooked river.
This smaller version sounds like a good move for Benchmade.

3.4" works for me. This is the one BM I am definitely getting this year.

I like the size and design but not a fan of the dymondwood. I like the grey G10 version of the crooked river better. Not on my list. If you folks are happy with it, then I'm happy.

Agreed but I'll still probably end up picking one up. I also heard it will be added to the custom shop so you can order it anyway you like.

I only wish they had gone with flow through pillar construction instead of the back spacer.

Does it still have the (ugly) orange backspacer?

Sadly yes.

Very happy they went with 3.4 and didn't make the mistake ZT made by going too large and too small.

That is one of the things I find cool about this knife.

I'm one of those folk who were hoping that the CR would come in a mini size, and I think this thing is going to be a huge hit. This is a fabulous design, and now it's in a size that is easy to carry, and I seriously have to have one...

... In the gray G-10.

 

[Kreyzhorse]

Nice..... this just made my list for 2018.

 

[sharkattacksw]

Slap some Keyman scales on it and you have a gem!

Can't they do something about that aluminum bolster?
