What's Your Favorite Benchmade?

standard BM 940 is an excellent EDC. The Ti handle 940's (if you can find one) are a nice step up.
 
Benchmade Mini-Griptilian RSk Mk1 upgraded with Kevin Wilkins scales;)
LOVE IT!

730 Ares, 42 Balisong, 805 TSEK, 806 AFCK, and I've been eying the 53 Marlowe Balisong. Finally, a utility oriented bali, made better in D2. I want to like the 710, but I detest recurves.
 
Hmmm...710's not allowed eh? Well, I guess for the time being it would have to be this one -

Another 556 Mini Grip here. This knife has been a regular edc since I got it in trade more than a year ago. It is the perfect size and shape, and exudes quality.
 
Well, right now I'm lovin' this Ritter Mini-Griptilian M4 DLC with WilkinGrips in Titanium.
It's all good!

But, this one keeps turning my head. Mini-Presidio M4 BK with Walnut scales (Bone Collector)

My all-time favorite is my 720 Pardue:

I like the Griptilian knives too and carry a 556 mini-Griptilian daily -- bottom knife in photo.

Its a tie between the 615 min rukus, a wicked knife that carries great for such a large blade, and the HK 14205, there is something about holding this one that just feels awesome, the ergos are great!
 
My favorite, which I've been abusing since '05, is the Ares 730 Carbon Fiber with M2.

The 760 looks great, as well, but I've yet to handle it.
 
I still use on occasion, my old Benchmade/Emerson CQC7 that I picked up many years ago (wow!) when I used to carry it clipped in my bdu pocket when I was still in the Army.. One of these days, I need to send it in to Benchmade for a little TLC consisting of a little resharpening of the blade and some tightening and lubricating of the screws..



Cheers,
Serge
 
Hands down...800 AFCK, followed by the 806 AFCK. I prefer the liner lock with this knife.
