Just in to the knife counter we're proud to receive the limited (numbered) edition 710FE-2401!

This is a beautiful homage to not only the AXIS® lock, but also to the designers of the original 710, 25 years ago, McHenry and Williams. The original 710 became a legend not just because of the revolutionary lock design, but also the functional and beautiful drop point recurve blade. Don't miss your opportunity to own one of these commemorative examples of arguably one of the most influential knife designs of the last 25 years. These are limited to 2,500 units (world wide) and are each individually numbered.

Benchmade Seven Ten Limited Edition, Axis lock,
Drop Point Folding Knife #710FE-2401

We also still have a few of the 2024 SHOT show exclusive 945 mini Osborne's. The same very popular and easy EDC 945 gets a chance to dress up and impress. These knives are exclusive to dealers for orders placed at the SHOW. while not numbered like the 710 above these are still a very nice piece for anyone's knife collection, or as a gift.

It's not just limited edition knives of course at the knife counter (the limited edition one's are just the most fun to talk about!), we have knives to fit every budget and every role. Make sure to come in, or drop by the website and check them all out. We're going to keep updating this space as there's still a lot more to come!

We've been a big fan of Benchmade knives for years now. We've always given them pride of place in the store but we were never quite happy about how they were displayed. All that changes now with this beauty that's just been delivered! Now this is much better. Apologies in advance to mobile users but, this beauty deserves to be shown full sized!

If you're in the area stop by and take a gander! Who knows what will catch your eye! For those not able to make it down, you can always check out the selection online (not the same we know) clicking on the image above will take you to the collection.

We've showcased Tops, and Esee we've also shown off Benchmade, today it's Spyderco's time to shine!

If you're in the knife collecting sphere when the words "Flash batch", or "Sprint run" show up on a product write up you get excited. We're proud here to be able to offer two such knives to add to, or even be the start of your collection.

First up:

Spyderco Stretch 2 XL Blue Nishjin Glass Fiber
Damascus Blade

There's no two ways around it this is a big blade, but all the better to show off the unique 31 layer damascus pattern of each blade. The glass fibre handle scales evoke the 1,200 year old Japanese traditional textile weaving methods. These two elements combine together to to make a wonderful conversation piece. Of course hailing from Seki city in Japan is the icing on the cake for this sprint run model.


Now Spyderco sprint runs are all well, good and collectible, but when "Flash batch" enters the conversation that's when ears prick up! This Flash batch is a collaboration between two of the biggest names in knife making. Spyderco has partnered up with Italian knife maker Lionsteel on this beautiful piece! We're proud to bring you:

Spyderco SpyMyto

This beauty is limited to 2000 pieces world wide! Each unit is serialized to show it's provenance (it's really well hidden! when they say discrete they mean it). Solid titanium lock side is a perfect counterpoint to the linerless sculpted green micarta scales. This makes a comfortable home for the hollow-ground, drop-point m398 blade. Smoothly deployed on its ball bearing pivot washers either with it's trademarked opening hole or the handy flipper tap. The deep carry pocket clip is reversible (left or right carry) for those brave (or cool) enough to EDC this beauty.

Our Spyderco collection isn't just the limited to the special editions (They're just the most fun to show off!). We've got a wide selection of Spyderco knives for almost every taste and budget, check out below for a link to the entire collection!
