I'd like a 755 with a Ti liner inset on the G10 side - perhaps stiffening the blade's pivot (The blade moves slightly from the framelock's pressure, rendering the blade tip slightly off center. Try pulling it away while the blade is closed...). Love the knife, but it would be even more better and much gooder-er then...
Stainz PS If they made the 790 without AO, I'd buy it... to go with my existing 790, of course. 171, 201, 275BK, 420, 425, 426, 480-1, 520, 525, 551, 581, 610, 615, 630 x 2, 635BK, 670, 672, 710, 720, 755, 755BK, 760BK, 790, 805, 950, 3150, 5000, 6150, 9555BK, 15005-2, 15020-1, 15030-2 |

I'm quite new to Benchmade... Saw the 172. Went gaga... Hell of a thing that. Disappointed that I can't get a manual Bedlam 8600SBK. It is the most beautiful folder I've ever seen. Ergonomics look great. Almost tempted to drive to Oregon to get one. [Do I have that right; can an ordinary citizen buy an auto there???] Hah! So, if by "an Axis lock" you mean manual or assisted, I second that! Preferably manual. (These high end knives are just so smooth, they open fast as lightening. Assist--by which I figure we're talking about some kind of flipper--is actually kind of awkward.) 'Til then I'm going to stick with a [insert modified bowie manufactured by Colorado competition here].  |

I would change the Griptilian line just a bit. I would not change it in function, but i would allow ALL the handle colors to be on ALL the blade combos. I like plain edge satin blades, but i really want an olive drab or sand color handle, but that is not available. Just a thought, keep them the same but add more color combos.

She never begins an attack, nor once engaged, ever surrenders: She is therefore an emblem of magnanimity and true courage...she never wounds 'till she has generously given notice, even to her enemy, and cautioned him against the danger of treading on her. |

A straight manual 790 would be nice.
I'd like a plain edged Blackwater 710 as well as a "Ritter" 710. |

I don't know, but I sure hope they don't remove the gut hook on the fixed blade Bone collector. If they did I would have to buy one of those to add to my collection too.
Do people still use knives with gut hooks? I seen the modified version someone did and it was almost perfect. |

I'd like an extra clip(and of course holes for it) for the other side of the Onslaught.
