Your Post MAP Enforcement Benchmade Purchases (if any)

Not one. There are a few models that I'd be interested to try, but I just won't do it since they screwed their customers.
 
I have not bought another Benchmade since this nonsense, and I have a lot of Benchmade knives. I have been tempted to get a 710-1401 from Knifeworks as it is a dealer exclusive and would be the same price either way.
 
Just recently got the Ritter Grip in M390. Before that was the HK Axis folder.

My 710's were purchased from individual sellers.
 
I bought a 710 that just sits in a drawer still in the box.Thanks to Benchmade's MAP policy, I've been looking at higher priced knives and bought a Sebenza. :)
 
KW's 710 in M390. No way I'd miss that. An M390 Griptilian is on the agenda in the near future.
 
The only BMs' purchased were KW dealer exclusives - BM810-1401 and a Ritter RSK MK1 S30V.
 
None, yet. I've never been a big BM customer. I've had 3 or 4 over the past few years, but they never quite did it for me, and moved on. Then I got a sweet deal on a like new 940, so thought I should try it, and see what all the fuss was about. I love it. Like, as much as I like my Sage 1. Totally different, but both great knives. I now really want a 943. That slim clip point and electric blue back spacer are calling me...

I've also found an interest in the 470-1 and 477 Emissaries, but the almost $200 price has managed to keep my finger off the "add to cart" button. But now that there is a blue 477, I'm not sure I'm going to be able to resist much longer. Let's see if I can make it through the weekend...
 
Bought another Adamas. I would never buy a Benchmade in a local store. Went to Cabela's and their prices on BM's are insane. Bought my new 275 from a online retailer new for $99 shipped! :)Was on sale from $140. I would still buy the Adamas at $140 new but much prefer it for $100. ;)Wish I would have bought two cause I know I'm gonna get another. That will make 4.
