Actually, I came home with my Christmas gift yesterday. My wife and I went out and she stopped at the only local store that carries a decent selection of knives (that I know of anyway). I showed her a couple of the ones that I like and she picked up the one that she felt I liked the best and told them she would take it! Shocked me twice: once for buying it off the cuff and once for picking the right knife out of several!
It is a Benchmade Knife of the Month from May 2000, a 705 with carbon fiber scales. I'm very happy (at least for a day or two)! This is my first BM by the way and I am very impressed with the quality and fit of it.
Take care. Andy
