New Knife! Benchmade 760 LFti 760BK

Within days of posting here - some three years ago - I marched over to my lgs/BM enabler and bought my 760. I did notice that, with the pivot screw adjusted for a centered blade, even another minute of rotation would lock the blade! Properly set, it is terrific. Mine had 30% engagement - may be 33% now! The M4 would pop an odd arm hair or two initially, but not so much now - the edge held up well. I dread sharpening mine, with it's edge's steep angle and my Sharpmaker - it may be time to buy those coarse diamond files. The black blade coating has held up well even if the Ti scuffs bare witness to it's pocket carry. Never fond of Tanto blades, I hadn't noticed this one's very often. I initially planned to send mine to T. Krein for reprofiling, but he stopped that. It isn't my favorite Ti framelock, but I don't have plans to say good-bye to it just yet, either.

PS I still love the BM 630 Skirmish!
 
Mine is great. Always in my pocket. It didn't come centered, although I never did anything about it. It flips out nicely and seems to lock up nice. My only issue is the pocket clip. I would have liked a deeper carry option as to much of this knife is sticking out of my pocket.
