Scored this Presidio automatic.
Scored it from Govx com on special. First time I've seen any online retailer beat GPK prices.To those who fought for it, freedom has a flavor the protected ones will never know.

Put these new AWT aluminum scales on this bugout. They call this color brick red. I thought they looked good with the gray cerakote blade.

After purchasing, I went back for a screenshot to post here and it showed out of stock. Guess I got the last one.

Thanks and I hope so! Holds an edge for a long time, but then when it gets dull it might not be so easily sharpened. That's the trade-off.

Bailout. This one originally had a blue thumbstud and a blue lanyard bail which I removed. I replaced them with some silver colored hardware.

Re: SHARE YOUR BENCHMADES
Here ya go bud, one just showed up from Midway USA. And you don't have to pay no $300 unless you want two of them. In fact you don't have to pay $200, or even $150. Got this in OD green for $134.99 shipped. Can't beat the price as far as I know, and it's a cool knife. Very well done. Nice half stops and snap. Fit and finish very good. I like the orange washers on the hex screws. Good contrast and accent for the OD green. Only thing I would change is maybe make the secondary short little spear a bit longer for spreading and scooping. Otherwise nice knife. Pleased with it so far. Let me know if anyone finds a lower price.1967redrider wrote: ↑Wed Sep 27, 2023 6:08 pm Very nice. Waiting for someone to post some pictures of a Weekender. At $300+ I'm just looking.![]()

RR and Iman now that's a great knife for the backpack
JTX do you like the feel of the aluminum scales?
I like the feel of the original Bugout scales but they are thin
