Pascal, nice to see the patina on that 710, that knife looks even better now than it does new!

Sounds good, Boobar. Could I add that the G-10 handles be machine textured?..(or whatever the proper term is for "grinding grip" into the G-10)

G-10 handles with the same EDM texture that the 522 Presidio Ultra has would be awesome.

Again ..... even though I just sold two of them ....
The 943 would be great to have in M-4 , I sold these two with the anticipation of BM making a LE M-4.
I still have a few more of them though Big Grin
Have I said I liked the 943 or 94 series in any form.

Start mass production of the 806 AFCK again at the old affordable prices. Smiler

I would buy 10 of them to give to my children and grandchildren one day.

Mill, drill, & tap the 750 and the 760 for tip up carry option too.

Upgradeable scale options for 800 and 710 series-like they did for the Rukus line.

No more plastic back spacers...ever.

Make a 2000 Reflex and 7500 Tsunami manual axis version.

make the 580 barrage with the blade style of the 585. I hate the long swedge on the 580 and don't like how small the 585 is. This is why I don't own either.
