Is the grip knurling exactly as pictured or is it the newer woods crew style knurling? Thanx

It is just like the photo. I had this pen in the 1960's and it is the exactly the same. However, I am not sure what you mean "wood crew style Knurling"?

The pen I was referring to from the 1960's is the "Fisher Space Pen Shuttle Retractable Space Pen - Gold Grid Design. Really nice pen.

I found this on their site. Looks like a slightly more expensive model for the following bonuses:+Thicker steel stock (.185)+Satin Finish blade+Newly designed longer ergonomic handle with deeper finger grooves+Racy new blade shape with longer cutting edge+Added blade spine rasp for notching, filing, and thumb placement+Injection molded glass reinforced handle scored with grip linesIt's also about half an inch longer. A little of that is the blade, most is the handle.

the sheath is a green kidex but i ordered the non serration one, i would think the sheath is the same eather way you go.good luck, and keep it sharp!

No. Mine is a '90's model, and the original screws for the wooden grips don't have the built on washer. The grips fit perfectly, however. The grips I received are also designed to work with/without the decocking feature. I hope this helps.

The F1 that I own and purchased through Amazon matches the fallkniven site, with a much smaller logo, and nearer the handle than the one pictured here. Also has an exposed tang. This does not appear to be an accurate picture.

Specs are the same. I'm thinking a product naming change, but not sure. The grind, hook and kerf are the same.

Not sure. I replaced original plastic black grips and the wood grips were about the same size and a whole lot prettier.

I'm fairly certain that this is the newer version of the Manix 2. The older/original version was the model with the translucent blue handle. Regarding your reference to the "torx pivot", I'm not enough of a hardcore knife expert to give you a definitive answer to that. My guess would be that it is the new version of that, since that would seem to go along with the logic of making of a newer version of the knife. Again, that's just my assumption. I can say, however, without hesitation, this is an awesome knife. The lightness and feel is excellent. I'm certain you will not be disappointed in the slightest. I hope this has been helpful to you.

I believe that this grip is a Meike. I have been using it for a few months now and I love it. It has worked out great for me.

The photograph on the Benchmade website is accurate as far as the grip texture. However, the slightly oversized tang, which sticks out beyond the scales, appears to have been changed to a flush tang. (Recent examples at my local shop had this change).

It is non serated. Same as the picture. The grip is excellent, it takes a small amount of wrist action to flip out, don't expect an explosive snap when opening the blade. I wear it every day and love it

I have not done a comparison (I have the SF), but other than color and logo, they look the same. I have also seen them noted on woodturning forums as the same machine made in same factory.

The finish is a smooth coated finish. It does not reflect or shine like the older style "blue" finish. And it is not gritty or poreus like a parkarized finish. It is smooth and not abrasive, it matches my standard kimber finish almost exactly. Thumb section has long lines to catch the thumb, it as you can see not checkered like a factory slide release. This part makes all the difference. It is easy access for shorter hands or when using your off hand.

I think it's instantly more tacky than the original leather grip. If you stretch the grip tightly while you're wrapping it over the handle, especially at the start on the butt end where I grip it, it seems to last long enough that I never worry about the cost of replacement. Also if you clean the handle after removing the original grip and let it dry, it seems to stick better. No more overgrips for me.

Fine with the one I have very sharp. Mine is alittle older however. Still a Henckel. T

I've only seen the one handle. But to answer your question, the same wooden handle as pictured in the ad. EDIT: I think I understand what you are asking. The pictures of the customized handle were added by a customer and not actually what is being sold. The un-customized handle that is in the ad picture (first picture) is the one that you will get.

Yes it is. The grip is nice but it wears out very quickly. Like 1 to 2 months of regular use.
