/|\ you should PM Jedi with pics he’d know for sure.
Regardless Benchmade or not if it swings you can have fun with it.

The only way to figure out if it’s fake is send it to Benchmade for a free service. They will let you know if it’s fake. Read there service section on the website.
Good luck!!

That’s the only bad thing. I took a chance with my balisong’s which cost me allot of money but now I have a piece of mind. I understand if you don’t want to send them but I would want to know if it’s real. The knife could be worth some money because it’s so unique.

it didn't cost a futune but I don't want to loose it.

Hope jedi will see the post.

Here is a good resource for general butterfly knife info, Benchmade & more. The latch looked a bit different, but I am not an expert on them.

I took a look. The list has spring latch. The one I posted is T latch. I think the T latch is earlier version of 4x. There are so many fake 4x but not black. So, I need expert to give some advice.

See, i warned you i had no idea what i was talking about when it comes to this knife. I came across this link when trying to get some 239 info a few years back. I think i posted a link to it back then. It's a great resource

I believe this knife to be authentic. The Chinese knockoffs are for the spring latch not the T-latch. I have a 43 black, finish LIKE YOURS. I also own another 43A and four 42's, two are safequeens. Once again authentic...in my opinion and nice knife in great condition.
