    I really liked the 940-121 with its CF bolster and Ti scales, but I think it would look and feel even better if it were swapped. CF/whatever scale with a Ti bolster. A nice blue hue Ti and thin-band black and blue G10 so it really shows off on the contours?

    I'd have to opt out of linen micarta if it's the rougher stuff like on the Rukus knives which took on so much oil. A nice paper micarta with very fine grain to stay sealed up might be just the ticket.

    There's still a breath of life in the 94x series IMO, just gotta be creative - they would sell like hotcakes

    I would also like to see a 530 with Anodized Ti scales & a change in steel. I think a nice set of thin Ti scales could look really cool on a 530.. A little added weight but who cares.

    I want to see more balisongs, preferably like the ones y'all have at the Blade and Shot shows, thanks!

    I want a M390 710 with contoured G-10 scales, ala the 806-1101.

    Full Damascus 530 (scales/liners/blade) would be
    Cool

    720 with a black hardwood and silver inlays for the machined out "Benchmade" on the handle.

    May be time for a different maker to get into gold class, one of Steigerwalt's little folders maybe... more inline with the shoki size gentlemen's carry.

    I'd like to see a 15055-1 made into a LE.

    - Lose the Bone collector etch and put a butterfly on the blade.

    - Blue/Black G10 or carbon fiber scales.

    - upgrade the blade steel

    - keep the deep carry clip but maybe black oxide it

    It just seems like a great style/size of a knife that would make an excellent every day blade. The way it stands now it's kind of marketed just to the hunter crowd.

    Quick and dirty gimp chop

    I'd love to see a 275 with cpm-m4 and OD green and black scales. That's a blade I'd spend some money on!

    I'd love to see a new issue of the 975 with an axis lock and a newer steel with something other than black G-10.

    Id love to see Limited edition Titanium 62's. I think it would work great with the sandwich construction and large block spacers used, they would have to b Ti too and it would flip like a dream

    Make it M390 so it can be satin finish, and you'll be spot on!

    My plug for a LE model:
    950 Rift with M390 blade and green/black G10 scales. Simple yet different, and definitely an improvement over 154CM.

    I wish me a Titanium made Reflex(2550)may be with a little thicker blade(Damascus?),
    BUT DEFINITIVE NOT LONGER AS 85mm BLADE.

    A guy spoken to himself was asked why he do it.
    the answer was:Is it not good to speak with intelligent person?
    Big Grin
    j/k.
    Are autos not allowed in your state?

    Yes I have autos, but the Reflex in axis was always on my mind.

    My idea was a new middle-sized AFCK GC or LE with Axis lock
    smaller as big version but bigger as small one,something in the middle.

    Well, the mini-AFCK had a 8.25cm blade, so something in the 9.1cm range?

    Personally, I'd love for them to just come out with the mini-AFCK in an Axis lock before they make a midi-AFCK.

    Hey Vance,

    Remember the aluminum scales on the 525-701? That's the template used for the Presidio Ultra scales.

    Anyway, how about a run of the 520 with those aluminum scales?

    Thanks,

    Tb

    I like the idea of a Mini-AFCK with the AXIS locking system too.
    I would really like to see the scales in the rippled black G10(as in the SHOT Show AFCK, with red spacers). What the heck; might as well make it the red/black mix like the Big Grip.

    I'll take two.
