Benchmade 43ss?

Good evening(?) all.

I'm new to the community, but a longtime flipper/somewhat collector.

I had a quick question about a potential trade I'm thinking about taking.

I know a guy who I've known to be trustworthy in the past who's offered what appears to be a benchmade 43ss. Stainless handles, spring latch, 6 countersunk holes.

My dilemma is that he also acquired it second hand years ago, and I don't recall ever seeing BM release a stainless handled 43 other than the 43-401, which I know this is not.

I've seen the model listed as being owned in peoples sigs, but I can't seem to find much reference other than that.

It is most likely a blade swap. Not hard to do, as all the 4x are interchangeable. Some have put SS handles from the 42 or 41 SS on their 47 or 43 blades. The 43DM has SS handles, but sounds like this is just a plain steel blade


BRING BACK THE CUSTOM SHOP

Sorry George, but AFAIK both 42SS and 41SS models had zen pins. I can't recall any 43 or 47 models with zen pins from top of my head. Regular blades will not work with those SS handles. Must be something else.

Incorrect RX, it will work as I have seen it with my own eyes.

Once again you are talking out of your A$$.

Notice the zen pins are removed and the tang pin is visible.

Once again RX is shown to have no idea what he is talking about. Dont let the door hit you on the way out.
