I knew it! I freaking knew it!

I knew they were on their way to being discontinued but not THIS quickly!

(CRIES MORE MAN TEARS)

My favorite large production edc knife GONE!

(CRIES A RIVER OF MAN TEARS)

I knew I should have gotten off my lazy ass and bought two or three more of these lovely beauties!

(BLOWS NOSE)

Anyone know of any online stores where I can get a brand new Satin Finish and a brand new Black Finish versions of the Benchmade Rukus 610?

Last time I was on LA Police Gear website they still had them - its been a while.

Good luck - I've wanted a Rukus for some time now but I need to stop buying big folders. I can only carry them on the weekend.

I'm so mad at myself right now because, I remember seeing a black pe version for around $176.00, and the satin pe version a bit cheaper at knifeworks, and thinking those were really great prices (since I paid 200+ plus for the two satin ones I already have), but was too lazy to buy them at the time telling myself I'd buy them a few weeks later...and now POOF they are all gone...FOREVER!

I do see some satin plain edged version for sale so I think I'll pick one of those up while shopping around.

If anyone can also find me a link for the black blade version in plain edge I'd be much obliged!:thumbup::thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:

Have you seen the new Benchmade Lum folder? It's one of their largest folding knives.

Those will be harder to find since that isn't a normal configuration for BM to do. My understanding is they would only do a black plain edge if a Dealer requested it and made an order of at least 40(?). I got the last one from Roger at Knifeworks a while back, he was one of the few dealers that would stock that configuration.
 
Hmm... I wonder if they'll disco the Mini Rukus too.... I figure not since they pro'lly sell more than the 610. Well, sorry to hear about this. The Rukus is a solid knife.
 
Just wondering, but with the 610 disco'd, what's the biggest axis-lock knife still in production?
 
The RUKUS will be missed, but there should be a few available on the secondary market as the fullsize is a bit to much for many people to carry EDC.

I'm waiting to try the new Benchmade 741 out - should be an interesting comparison to the RUKUS.
 
I bought a 610 4 days ago.. Guess I'll hang on to her.. My favorite knife any way..
 
I wanted one for a long time and finally picked one up in Dec 09. I found out a few weeks later they were being discontinued. Guess I got lucky. Now they are nowhere to be found!
