How much does an M4 or S90V blade add to a knife that normally comes equipped with 154CM?
The 732BK in coated 154CM lists at $165. What would dealer price be on that, $90? Less?
Add the difference for the premium steel, and if BM will allow the forum take the place of the dealer, and we get a real forum knife with top steel in a favorite design for at or under $125.
I may be off on the numbers, but I doubt by much. Who would be in for a $125 +/- Ares in Satin S90V with G-10 scales? I would gladly pre-pay for one even if the wait time was 6 to 12 months.

I am in for ANY new PE/Satin Ares model (730-901? ), if its under 200$.

Satin M4 works fine.. If it didn't then BM wouldn't have come out with a $500.00 (street price) 210 in it .

Spyderco has also done it and I've never heard any problems...

If you dunk it in salt water or something just clean it up, but that goes for any steel not just M4.

730-901 is taken by the blue-black G-10 LE run for that Moscow store. I hear they still have some in stock. Too bad they don't ship to US
This would be 730-902, if we're lucky

Is this an actual rumor/possibility, or are we just dreamin' here?

I thought we were just shootin the breeze .

It's a dream, Bill. We can all go back to sleep now

figured..

Sometimes I can't tell if I'm awake or dreamin .

It is called the "Benchmade Matrix" .....
