The aluminum scaled Presidio is by far the best option. Congrats on the new addition! I updated my 5000 Presidio with some sea blue Cerakote525BK-1101.
Sentimental story, feel free to skip -
I met my wife ten years ago this week, working a summer job a long way from home. This is the knife that I had with me at the time; only one I brought (didn't know the exact laws 2,000 miles away, so 3" seemed like a good choice).
This week, my wife and I met our daughter for the first time. I had the same Benchmade in my pocket.
The 5000 Presidio is such a perfect all around edc auto, especially with those aluminum scales & full steel liners!
Yep, I’ve carried this one every shift for some years now. I have admired your blue one before. While it does look great, it would totally clash with my uniform!
