There are a handful of Benchmades from year's ago that I either had and sold or never owned in the first place. I regret not taking advantage of the opportunity to buy them when I could (or to just keep them when I had them). The ones that immediately come to mind are :
- Skirmish
- HK 14255 Tanto
- 710-101
- Subrosa
I never owned a Skirmish. Wish I had. Still one of the best looking folders I've ever laid eyes on.
I had a few 14255's. Then foolishly sold them as the years went by. This knife got me hooked on Tanto blades. Prob my fave BM of all time (along with the 710).
The 710-101 was never mine but I still drool over pics of it online. I think it was a Gold Class but I'm not sure of the year when it came out.
I had a Subrosa and I thought it was a wonderful knife. Very attractive too. Then in my heated anti-BM fit of 2013 I sold it off to a friend who had been admiring it. The Subrosa seemed to get discontinued rather quickly. I wonder why (?) I really liked it.
Now I'm rebuilding my Benchmade collection. And I'm not going to make the same mistake twice (famous last words)
