Older discontinued Benchmade Models you wish you could find

[Wolverine666]

Yep, or at least do sprints like spyderco where they resurrect an old model. I regret selling the ones I've had.

Same here. I had a couple standard 710’s (D2 blade) and one with M390 , single thumb stud and rounded spine. I often think about picking up a ZT 0640 because it has a similar silhouette as the 710. But it’s not the same.

The Stryker was my first BM. Still have it. The 615 was my favorite outdoors folder for many years. I will also throw the 151 fixed Griptilian into the fray. My absolute favorite BM fixed blade.

So very true. I have been on the lookout for a 151 for some time.

Benchmade Pat Crawford Leopard.
Distal tapered flat ground, awesome grip and egros.
My first "good" knife.
Mine is sharpened so much it's about half the width and way too thick behind the edge, even for a Benchmade
I finally retired it when the handle screws stripped out after hundredes of strip downs.

My first Benchmade knives were a 910 Stryker in ATS34, CQC7 Emerson collaboration.. I wish they made those models. Blue boxed and built for abuse.

I still have my 705 from circa 2002-2003. Used it hard for about 7 years, spa treatment and now it gun safe for one of my boys

I’m still running mine, all the finish is gone, all of it, it is my all time favorite. I have the 806-901 in my safe just waiting for the D2 version to wear out… it’s been in the safe for a decade now! No, I will not sell it!

I love the Stryker. Only have a small version though.
