Yeah I'm interested to know this as well. Being a senior in Highschool, I want one, but it'll take me half a year to save up for one! :rolleyes: So I'm hoping its full production! don't want to have the option of missing my chance to get one.

Yeah college student here. I pretty much exhausted my budget on a 550 so I am pleased to find out I will be able to save up for a while for a 0561.

Glad to see I'm not the only broke student! Although when you're 17 and you have gotten a Benchmade 710, 755 mpr, 585, and presidio all in the last 4 months, you can't blame the 'being a student' for being broke, it's cause you collect knives. And can't stop. :D I don't know how I'm gonna manage to keep cash on hand during college. Especially with KAI cranking out all these awesome new designs!!!!
 
I'm a college student too. But I have a few CRKs, busses, and a few other customs too. Being a college student doesn't stop me. If anything my taste for cup o soup is already in full swing so it makes it easier!! Lol

We tightened up the lock cut out a fair bit. Looks hot. Thank you Mr. Galyean...

I really like that, that is done with EDM right?
 
Wow, good to see some other college students looking forward to their new blades! But if you guys were cool like me, you would have pre-ordered back in July and set aside the necessary funds already from your summer paychecks! :D Ha, seriously though I'm glad Campus Security is cool with knives otherwise I would feel naked walking around school, but it would certainly suck if they weren't and my 561 got confiscated!

I guess you can post back in the future about how cool they are when one of them spots you flipping it out to show a friend or something and then issues you a verbal warning and pockets your new folder! :D :mad:

You don't flip out a knife to show someone in public has been my experience in general, not even on campus. Way I see it, if I'm not using it it's not leaving my pocket. Who knows who's around when you try to do something flashy? Campus Security has clearly stated their policy on knives though because when I started going to college I actually asked the Campus Security head about carrying a knife (Before doing so of course). He said that it was fine as long as I didn't brandish it, only took it out to use it, and it was compliant with local laws. This has been reinforced by firsthand experience because when working events for a few clubs I've had to use my knife for various things and one time I even had a Campus Security officer compliment me on my choice of steel!

Anyways, that's my overly long contextualization of my last post. Long story short, the hypothetical situation you presented isn't going to happen thank God.

Oh man... well I feel foolish for typing all that out! Ha, guess my reading comprehension isn't as good as I though!
 
I also like the tightened look of the lock cut! I don't mind looser lock cuts, but the tighter profile just looks cleaner. The slight polish on the Ti combined with that looks very nice.

I can't see exactly where that cut ends? I hope before the cut out.

I'm probably going to sound like a noob, but what does that mean? It kinda looks like the space between the lockbar and the rest of the scale might be smaller/thinner ("tighter") but its hard to tell from the pic. If its something other than that please fill me in. Thanks!

That pic looks pre-stonewashing. Don't think that polished look is the finished product. Could be wrong.:D
