    What's your production EDC today?

    Here is my EDC, a Benchmade 610 Rukus SBK. Note a true EDC vs NIB. I always find if fun to see people with carry knives that still have a pristine factory edge. I know my knife gets a workout 2-3 times daily... Also pictured is the smaller 615 Mini-Rukus.

    How much to sell knife for

    I just sold my 2nd and 3rd ever knife I made for 750 each. It all depends on the blade and the customer. I am a firm believer that the value of art cannot be calculated.
