I dunno why, but sometime yesterday I woke up one morning and decided I was tired of carrying cheap material knives all the time, all I have of excellent quality in folders is my Spydie Chinook which, while nice, can sometimes be impractical.
I've basically decided I want a Benchmade, maybe a 710 or an AFCK or something, maybe more than one. I know a bunch of people will get on and tell me to buy the 710 or an axis AFCK or something, so don't bother, i'm well aware of the differences between all of them.
So i'm leaving it to eye candy, I am requesting that anyone and everyone post some nice pics of their various Benchmades so I can gawk and examine and such and help make up my mind, picture's worth a thousand words 'n all.

Thanks, let's see those pics!

Wow, Gator. Thanks for the pics, that's a really nice collection you have goin' I am especially impressed with your BC coated specimens, your Osborne collection, and that greenish AFCK :P
Anyway, many thanks.
 
I like my tacticals pretty as well as functional. :)
