"Use 'em if you got 'em! "
Picture of Rezarf <><
Posted
I was at my local 4x4 club rally for Land Cruisers yesterday in Denver and 4x4 guru Bill Burke was in attendence teaching some clinics on off road recovery techniques and during several clinics throughout the day he used a 710 to point at parts, and tighten wing nuts. He refered to his knife as a "Benchmade" only, and is a HUGE supporter of any AMERICAN made company. Bill may be the premiere 4x4 instructor in the USA.

He was giving out props to BM thoughout each presentation by name dropping the brand.

Made me smile. Anyone else no of Celeb's or semi'celebs that carry a BM?

It's a 1964, been a project of mine for about 6 years or so. Now that it doesn't consume all my fun money I can get some BMs. Big Grin

Since this has drifted a bit off topic (in a good way Wink ) I thought I would throw out a pic of Bill and his 710 in his pocket... and a shot of my 76 fj40 and my homemade camping/wheeling trailer.
