    How about some specs on the little guy in the right hand corner!


    That is a concept kukri prototype. The blade 154cm. The handles are orange G10 & black micarta. blade length 8"

    Interesting!

    It isn't like Benchmade has a bunch of .190 or so 154CM laying around from use in other models, so maybe that is actually what they are considering using.

    Interesting.

    I just noticed what looks like a 580 blade on the special project bench in the video too, I wonder what's going on there...

    Picked up #9. Number nine...... Number 9.

    Thanks again Mikey for all the time you guys spent putting this one out.
    In another thread, some are calling this one Mid-Tech. It really is that nice!

    Others in different threads have noticed that the handle looks a little blocky, and might be a little uncomfortable in the hand. What feedback have you guys gotten on that issue? If any.

    I wonder how many of these poor knives will actually see the light of day, and do some real knife duty. I know a very few will get used, and I am bummed when a knife company makes a knife that is never meant to be used.

    I would think a lot of 132's will be carried and used and very few 131's. I do see a shift from Gold Class to Gold line knives. Just an observation. In the past the 132 may have been Blue class and the 131 Gold? Thanks to the expansion of Special projects group, this type of thing might be the " New normal" and that's a great thing for those of us here.
    With the 132 being listed as pre order now by some retailers at the std. Lg Sebenza price point I have to think many will be carried and used. And who knows, there might be a Blue class version in the works. That might come in at 2 something. Just thinking out loud more than anything.

    There must be a blue class version in the works.

    What I wonder...who out there is using a Sibert Pocket Rocket hard, and what would they have to say about it?

    The Pocket Rockets don't strike me the way the fixed blades do.

    I think the 275 was the better design. It's got some umph, it's got stout, it's ergonomic, it's got the Axis lock.

    Mebbe the collector market is the only market for these.

    ...just sayin'...I'm not sayin'.

    When folks see this one, they might be surprised how comfy in the hand it really is.
