A Griptilian 551 plain edge with a thumbhole not the thumbstud. Also throw a 551 thumbhole version with a Wharncliffe style blade and thats my perfect EDC.

Whats all your folks dream BM EDC



:cool:
 
940 Osbourne with smooth G10 handle (same design/shape) and a CPM-M4 reverse tanto blade.
 
I want a Benchmade/HK 14255 Tanto with satin finish M390 blade , forest green G10 , skeletonized liners and maybe some gold colored spacers and gold axis lock button

And I want it now. .

Same, in CPM-M4 or M390.
or a de-assisted 581 with a thumbhole.
 
Rukus with an M4, M390, S110V, or 3V blade. Wouldn't break my heart if the blade was about 5/16" or so longer, I'm pretty sure the handle could accommodate that.

I too want to see a thumb hole drop point full size Griptilian, with a forest green and bark colored G10 handles, but I'll stick with S30V.

A hint of things to come?

:)

I'll throw mine in: a dlc coated, carbon fiber and blue anodized scale (similar to 940-121 gold class Osborne) drop point (Ritter style) mini griptilian.

Well, since I am already playing with my dream benchmade (my custom 550 full size grip) I guess it goes to my next in line BM. A 916SBK-ORG triage. I want that one pretty bad. I like having a knife I can thrash on with confidence.
Tho what freq18hz said would be very nice too. :D
Also a drop point thumb hole grip would be awesome!
 
S90v 805 / CF scales. Drilled for R hand tip up only. High Polished thinned out blade would be a nice touch. :D
 
My favorites are the 913 Stryker, 890 Torrent, 581 Barrage and Ares.

I like the size and blade shape of the Stryker and Ares.
I like tip-down like the Stryker.
I like the 3-dimensional scales of the Barrage and Torrent.

Combine all of these features into one knife and it would be my dream knife. While I think D2 is good, if this is a dream knife I would go with M4 or M390.
 
so maybe not a "dream" BM, but I would like to see a Nitrous Stryker with tip up carry, no, wait, I demand it! I love my stryker, probably my most used BM knife, (except for my 42 of course but that's mostly flipping) but tip down is carry is not conducive to my palate
 
This thread made me think about the BM760 Chickenbiscuit Framelock with LockTab insert that I dreamed up many moons ago (pictured below)...

Bring back the 14205 with carbon fiber and M390/M4 steeel and life would be grand!:D
 
The rift with skeletonized titanium liners, cpm-m4 blade(a hair thicker), carbon fiber scales, and a deep carry clip. A higher end scaled down contego more or less. I really like the blade shape and the axis seems especially smooth with a blade that weight and length or larger. No not the osborne, bigger.
 
I want more Griptilians like the ShotShow 2013 version. In mini and regular sizes

Uncoated M390 or M4 steel/ G10 or CF handle/ Open construction anodized standoffs
 
I would also love a 3.25"-3.5" Mchenry & Williams. For me the 710 is too big and the 705/707 too small.
