260 I can handle, but 355 on you know where ? no way is it worth all that extra just for checkered wood scales and backspacer,brass ring and some kind of stenciled engraving.your better off with the regular one at that point...
I haven't bought a Benchmade in a while but this one is a winner. Too bad nobody has them in stock or I would grab one.
Amazing pictures. I can't decide on the patterned bolsters either. I think it would look better with gun barrel blued bolsters.AusLox,
Beautiful knife! Just love the checkered wood handles and wooden back spacer! I don't think I've seen checkering on a knife handle before. The scrolling on the bolsters I can live with or without. I happened to find one and purchased it for $260. Should be receiving it in the mail TODAY!!! When time permits, I'll post pics of mine! Congrats on that beautiful Benchmade Crooked River Limited Edition knife!
