Carrying a vintage pre-Benchmade Lone Wolf Blackfoot with me today.
Now. If asked for a perfectly centered (and razor sharp) reverse tanto S30V blade, excellent textured G-10 scales, crowned spine and jimping with an Ti Nitride coating, go no further. If you can find one of these knives buy it. Bench will honor the warranty; yes good luck on spare parts, but the way this is built that won't come up for a long time IF the thing gets used. The one in the photos is in mint condition and shows it.
BTW - the pivot's under the left scale, Barrage style and the blue tint on the lock and liners is the lighting.
Now for Benchmade's decision to buy and sell the Lone Wolf company...I want to know who made that decision? These are the better than anything in their current lineup. Enjoy the pics, and again If you can find one, don't hesitate.
