Mini Presidio II. Automatic with a 3" blade and aluminum handles.
Re: SHARE YOUR BENCHMADES
Here are a couple of new ones I bought today. The first one is the Full Immunity ( blade is only about 2 1/2" ). The second Is the Shot Show edition of the Bailout. Factory aluminum handles on both.

Re: SHARE YOUR BENCHMADES
Bought my first Benchmade this week. Back in my LEO days I carried cold steel and then a Kershaw but was envious of the guys that could afford Benchmade. Finished out the last several years before retiring carrying a ZT automatic. Back then only LEOs could carry automatics.
I've bought several Case knives recently but been disappointed in the workmanship and read here that alot of guys buy vintage Case but not new. That got me to try other brands and love my Boker Solengens.
Never bought a Benchmade until now but I'm hooked. The Adamas was a bit stiff but a drop of oil in the works and she is smooth and fast! Liked it so much I scored a black mini Osborne with blue liners, should be here next week. Can't wait! Anyway here is the Adamas next to a Boker Solengen.

Re: SHARE YOUR BENCHMADES
Those are two nice ones. I think you will enjoy the Adamas. Let us know when your mini Osborne is delivered. I have one with the green aluminum handles.

Re: SHARE YOUR BENCHMADES
As requested here are my two Benchmades. The mini Osborne is perfect EDC for me since I wear slacks in the office. The big Adamas dissappears in a front pocket of jeans.

Nice looking pair, like the colors, have been tempted to get one of those Bokers too. Good looking knife.

The 940-1 arrived today. Sweet knife. Of my 3, this one has the sharpest edge. Crazy!
