New Griptilian 556-1

[Flatlander1963]

Just purchased this new variation of an old favorite. I'm pretty excited to have a Benchmade Grip in factory G10, open back, and a premium steel.
I was surprised there wasn't some discussion about these new knives.

Anyway, if you have one and would like to comment, please do.

I'll add my thoughts when mine arrives in a few days.

Large thread in the Benchmade Subforum. To summarize, most that like the grip, love the new version, and some prefer the older grip clip rather than the deep carry clip.

Silly me I didn't realize Benchmade had it's own manufacture forum. I guess I've been away to long.
