I picked this up about 10 years ago in a pawn shop for a crazy low price. I can't recall exactly what I paid, but around $20, maybe less. After I bought it I mentioned to the store owner that it was a good price for a Benchmade. He didn't think it was a Benchmade, or he'd have charged more.
It doesn't say Benchmade anywhere on the knife, just the Blackwater logo and the 154CM stamped on the blade. But I have little doubt it is a Benchmade Griptilian. If not a very good counterfeit.
I'm assuming it was a special run made for Blackwater. But I've never seen one with this blade. It is very close to the drop point, but with a hole like they use on the sheeps foot. But if you compare it closely to the drop points the profile is slightly different.
Any additional info would be appreciated.
