710 for example S30V will be good enough, with titanium bolsters and CF handle, or damascus bolsters and ebony handle... Yes I am humble Smiler

I agree, they should make the 710 in S30V STANDARD, rather than M4 ruining the collector market for LE's in M4.

LE AFCK 806-101 S90V with Green Micarta scales.
250PE/250CE ...no coating on stainless blades please!

How about a framelock this time rather than axis? I love axis but framelock is even better.

A framelock would be the ticket, something along the lines of a 750 Pinnacle with textured Ti scales, maybe G-10 or Micarta on the non-locking side and S30V or M4 for the blade steel.

That would get my attention!

Now that would be the perfect EDC! I like the way your thinking on this one Joe.. I think a pinnacle with either micarta or G10 scales is the kinda knife benchmade would not have a problem selling. Perhaps even take it a step further and use the blade shape from the pinnacle and alter the Ti frame lock to a AXIS lock with G10 and Micarta scales... ahhh we can only dream about this one Joe....

What about a Benchmade (not HD) Hardtail 13100,
with Ti bolster and CF or micarta inlays and a satin M4 blade ?????

A 710, M4, Nitrous assisted, AXIS locking Jeweled Titanium linered, with the Chain link CF scales laid at a 45 degree angle. Looking at the knife while open sitting on a table with blade facing down the links would run from top left of handle down to lower right hand corner.

It would probably take a little while to get used to closing...

Oh with sterling silver hardware

Sorry to let you down...
My thinking was that sterling would be more stain resistant, and it was for color.
More chromy like instead of Dull silver.
I just googled both and it seems that the platinum may be stronger??
But you would have to poilish the sterling from time to time to get it shiny again.
