      @chrisjohnnick call BM and tell them you have one of the knives with whatever clip you want.  They’ll send you one for free.  The trick is to tell them you have a knife that already has one.  They won’t send you something different than what you have.  They don’t ask for proof that you have it though.  That’s what I did for it’s the 940-1.

      I bought mine new from a local shop a while back and eventually bought the deep clip from Benchmade. it was only 10 bucks. I've paid more for less. Good to know for the future, though!

      Wants List:
      IHSH-20-Red, XL
      IHSH-208-Indigo Kersey, L-XL
      IHSH-254-Grey Kersey, L-XL

            There might be 3rd party deep carry clips for this knife. I've bought some for Spydercos.

              Both are great quality.  S30 is a bit more practical since it’s easier to sharpen and the S90 is considered a bit higher quality due to its better edge retention and hardness.

              I’ve read the s90 could chip, given its hardness. I’m currently debating whether to go with the standard 940 or the carbon fibre upgrade with the s90. Sharpening wouldn’t be an issue, but obviously wouldn’t want to chip the premier s90.

                I’d look at some long term reviews.  I haven’t seen anyone complaining of chipping. I wouldn’t hesitate. It’s a great choice either way.

                  Those who use your knives regularly, how do you keep them sharp? There are quite a few tools available to sharpen them, but just wanted to know if you do it by yourself or send it to a shop to get them back in shape? Could you share the tools that you people use?

                        If it's a chef's knife, you mostly need to carefully use a ceramic iron before each use.

                          This is my daily carry. Its a little bigger than normal but not obnoxious. I have big hands so it feels really good in when in use.

                            Ended up going with the S90v. So far so good. Looking forward to putting it to good use. And will make sure this one doesn’t get pinched!

                                  What's the English version of "that's what she said?" Something like "said actress to the bishop?" Curious if this actually references a joke. Either way, gotta give credit for a more creative rejoinder than our version.

                                  I'd love an IH collab knife, but one I'd carry would probably be illegal in a lot of your markets  😢

                                      I remember when you found one more after it had sold out. I wanted it so much but talked myself out of it. Sad twat.

                                        No argument here 😃

                                        I recall it too now, I'm thinking that's a 21oz micarta on the grip?

                                          Don't think I've posted a picture of my Benchmade 940. I've never seen another one with a serrated blade like this as well. It was definitely what sealed the deal for me. Picked it up at a local Benchmade dealer a while back, but not sure how old it is, as I'm sure it had been sitting there for a while.

                                            I love their tanto blades… ^

                                            I got suckered into my suppliers spring sale last week. 50% price drops means you should buy two right?

                                            To be fair, I’ve had my eye on this pair for a long time.

                                            The Fox/Spyderco collab is a tiny gentlemans folder. I’m going to admit to it being the least practical knife I own.

                                            The Fox El Capitan is the exact opposite in every way. Enormous, burly and will get thoroughly abused on a regular basis.

                                            Little and Large…
