Sell me on a 940!

I love my 940-1. Such a joy to carry. Very capable. I don’t need every knife to be a super slicer. It cuts just fine for my needs.
I got mine in a trade. Don’t think I could pay what they’re asking nowadays.
 
I love my 940 and 943. Action like glass, disappears in pocket, always there when you need it. As iconic as it is in the EDC universe, why not pick up this standard?
 
Owned one for a bit. Sold it after not long. Could never get the action quite right. If it opened and closed well, had side to side play. I could tighten out the play, but then open and closed it like a new Sebenza (sloooooowly.) I love Sebenza action, but not on a knife like this. There's too many good actions to leave a couple hundred bucks tied up in something like this. I won't be buying any future Benchmades.

I still own mine, but had the same experience.

On the plus side, it’s one of those knives that will go into your pocket and you’ll forget about it being there until you need it (in a good way).

It’s kinda thick behind the edge for my tastes too.

I have the G-10 version. I think I’da liked the OG green aluminum better.
 
Have a 940-1

Nice knife but never really sees much pocket time as I have other better knives.
