That is pretty darn nice. Looks nice and sturdy. :thumbup: I still want the benchmade gaucho in M4 :D
 
hahah, it's a collaboration between ESEE Knives (formerly Rat Cutlery) and DPx.

It's manufactured by Lion Steel, who makes that SR-1 folder (http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=787717) that's supposed to be really good. The HEST gets all the SR-1 features, but at ~$175 vs ~$400.

Also, no questions asked warranty by ESEE.

Hey man! You guys are all hi-jacking my M4 folder thread :p:D JK!

You guys are tempting me to spend more money on another folder. I am gonna be pissed at ya'll if I end up buying one :eek::D
 
Mooohahahahah. About the folder, you want new or used?

I would prefer used because I am gonna regrind it anyway. But new is fine as well. I would also prefer plain edge if given a choice.
 
Screw it! I just broke down and ordered a Spyderco Gayle Bradley Folder in M4. Not exactly a EDC knife but it is M4 that is HT'd harder than the Benchmade stuff. I really dig the the osborne design and axis lock though:thumbup:

Gonna use the GB Spyderco as my work knife and still carry my Pikal as a EDC. It should be sick when I am done sharpening it :thumbup: I am gonna cut circles around you guys with your new heavy duty frame lock HEST folders :p
 
Wait, I just found one for you. lol. I know a guy on another forum that has one. If you still want one leme know.

Hey ya I want more info on the hest folder. WEE, I r waiting!
