Did anybody ever pick up one of those 275-1301? That's the LE with two-tone green G10 scales.

They sure seemed to have sold out pretty quick.

There was a forum member who purchased one and posted pics of it here. I don't remember who it was though.

Neg,

But if I had the option between the two (not thinking about re-sale), I would still choose the standard black, green kinda looks weird

I'm still waiting for the version with the satin/stonewashed blade.

Come on Benchmade you can do it.

I think the green is pretty cool. The price was a little steep for me without a steel upgrade, but ymmv.

I'm just looking for some pics or feedback.

+ 1 as well.

The only knife I had then let go that I truly miss. Had two at one point,consecutives, sold one and a usps postal worker has the other I believe..Allegedly. Always ment to keep one but, long story. 275SNBK #303. Thought about putting a picture of it on a milk carton.

Will be getting another for sure. Looking foward to a satin or stone washed version. But that 275-1301, man, thats the one to have so far. Except for that one with the satin blade and full liners thats out there. That is some piece.

275-1301 owners....pics please.

I can see how a slab of M4 steel would upgrade this from a great knife to something only worthy of a select few

Wouldn't M4 in the green scales have been cool? I'd have bought the green scales/D2 blade at a lesser price though. Nothing wrong with D2.

Anybody have one? Still looking for some real-world pics....

+1 Other than lack of rust protection and higher cost, M4 would be perfect for this knife. I think M4 is just as tough if not tougher and holds an edge as well as D2. Plus it's easier to sharpen for most people.

I liked the LE version. Price was too steep for different colored grips.

A solid, olive or dark (NOT PAINTED!) green would also look good, with matching back spacer.
