I have all of the 4x models except for 2 that I sold off (the 49 and 48). I find the 43 to be the best of the lot. The 41SS is another great flipper with an old school feel. The 41MC is another great one followed by the 47. Then comes T-latch benchmades (any of them 44, 45, 42), followed by the 46, 42 and lastly, the 48 and 49.

The 43 has the best weight and balance for flipping of all blade styles.

The 41SS is solid but so smooth, it truly moves on its own.

Ever since the 51 came out, I've been a convert.

43A Spring latch is my favorite, it is slightly lighter than a standard 4x, at 4.0 oz even, with more finesse in the craftsmanship. The handles are more rounded and have a nice orange peel texture....

I have been flipping my new 51 almost exclusively as of late though....... i am very impressed.....
