Older discontinued Benchmade Models you wish you could find

[RJ_MacReady]

Always wanting more 3550's in various colors.

Same here. I got issued a few of them in the past and they've always walk off. I've been looking for one of the older ones (black serrated blade) for awhile. Can not seem to find them anywhere.

 

[GKM]

Definitely the 172 (forged hatchet). I would never use it until the zombie apocalypse came.

 

[Hellasharp]

Does anyone know how many 781 anthems were produced and from what years?

It’s currently my grail.

Trying to understand how rare they actually are

 

[alaskantinbender]

The AFO 11 with a plane blade would be nice. I really dislike the combo blades.

 

[P2P]

707 is top of the list.

 

[amunderdog]

818

 

[Hellasharp]

707 is top of the list.

Im newer to BM so always curious what makes certain ones special. Re:707, Is it bc of rarity or something about the knife itself?

Solid aluminum handle construction, touch of G-10 that wasn’t gaudy. Benchmades answer to the delica in my opinion. Plus I like my folders to have flat handles. Benchmade has limited options with flat handles.

Two that always come to mind for me are the 707 Sequel and the 860 Bedlam. The Bedlam is such a cool knife.

A run of Bedlams in a newer steel would be incredible.

Leopard and Onslaught (the real one, not the mini).

 

[willmtn1]

5270

 

[Trent1990]

I have a bnib LE 710 with m4 steel on the exchange if anyone is interested…

 

[The Hopper Show]

810-1401

 

[CPP]

The Valet is the only Benchmade I’ve owned and they discontinued it after I sold. I’d love another

 

[Peakbagger46]

The 806 AFCK, carried one on duty for years before I broke the blade stupidly prying on a bullet in a tree. Just scored this one off the exchange.

 

[Napsterninja]

111 H20 yellow plain edge. Always on the look out.

 

[Centermass]

For me, a 908 Stryker. While I love the LE M4/CF model, I’d be thrilled with a plain Jane one in 154cm.

Also regretting having traded away my last Bedlam…
