Normaly I'm not so much in to gold plated .....
But this is realy a great looking match.
It is also a rather small run compared to other previous non-US knives.

never heard of that one? How many are in the run and is it non US only? What is the msrp? Looks great by the way, the wood really stands out with the gold hardware which I usually dont care for, but it really accents the grain of wood. Congrats on a nice score Frank.

It's a 65 pcs run, Non-US countries (see certificat).
Not sure what the US price will be,
but European price as always is a killer .....

Oh, want to add that the naklock on this one is just "so so".
Benchmade, this could still need some improvement !
Specially on a gold class knife !

I have a production one that has a better lock.
Did read somewhere that someone said all of the goldclass Shoki's he handled didn't have that issue ....

Hey guys, am I the only one that has this knife?
Non of you have one or on order ????
I'm curious as I didn't see any on the net.
Even the ebay wolfs don't have them up yet,
guess I beat them with this one for a change. Wink

I know of a store that has it in stock, but this one just isn't on my "to get" list... (yet?)

The pocket clip is on the small leather slip case it comes with. That way you get the best of both worlds.
