Anyone have one of these.
With all the talk of a Spyderco framelock (really worked me up jonesin' for a new one) and the very low chance of ever seeing one I bought a 635 tonight.I looks like a great design.
Just wish it was a Spyderco colab.

I have one... This is the on BM I like to date... The only thing I dislike is the lock is hard to disengage...

Glad to see that I was not the only one to get that BM.

Any idea if :spyder: will put a real edge on it. This knife is nice but not sharp enough...

I have two. The plain version and the all black version. It is very well balanced. I can flick it open with minimal effort. It sure is a lot of blade to pack into a knife that size. I have several benchmades and this one is leaps and bounds above the others in design, ergos, and finish. Congrats and enjoy!

That knife uses Spyderco's trademarked round opening hole without permission from Spyderco. The Skirmish series is why I no longer purchase Benchmade products.

Well I kind of thought that too but it is Blackwoods trade mark as well,and seeing that Spydereco does not and probably will not make a Ti frame lock this is as close as it comes.

I won't lie it is a nice knife. The large and small version...but BM will never get another dime from me.
