Hey there everyone, just thought Id share a new blade i just acquired....

This seems to be a one-off of a 43DM, with a completely different pattern of damasteel. This has 5 twist damasteel, as where the regular 43DM use te 30 twist pattern.

This knife was also marked as 440c and is numbered 48/100, and has a designation as a second... It was fitted to regular titanium handles as well.

Let me know your thoughts on this truely unique Benchmade.

More pictures to come soon!

I did just buy this from the gentleman on jerzeedevil.... it was a local deal, as we both live in portland... I am a 43 freak, so this one is something super special to me.

I don't know whether the fact it was marked 440c, our more probably because of the different steel than the rest of the 43DM.....

first thing I picked up on was it was damascus and not 440c.
what does the other 43 DM look like. il try and a google..
what's the name of that pattern DM. looks like tree rings

that patten would look great on a 47.
I like almost all the DM patterns tho. the more random patterned ones
the most tho.

sort thinking out loud again...
NICE catch by the way.

I also really like the holsters you have.
