I'd be all over this if it weren't for that stupid symbol on the handle..

You can get the all silver version for $129.00 at Blade HQ and not have to wait. MD.... what a joke. MD is starting to rip us customers off.

Shame on you mASSdrop. This knife is the exactly the same as the "Emperor" that Bestech makes. Nothing about this is exclusive at all. Also can be found elsewhere online for less money too. BOOO!

Umnumzaan78Ummm, this IS the Betech Emporer. All of their models have both names and numbers. Other than that, MassDrop is just notorious for not updating their descriptions when re-running previous drops. That's old copy from the first time this dropped, about 2 years ago
Is this the Dennis Rader edition?
How is this different from the Emperor which i can get on Blade HQ for 129.99 in gray or 119.99 in bronze. looks exactly the same and has the same specs as far as i can see. https://www.bladehq.com/item--Bestech-Knives-BT1703B-Frame-Lock--72032
On the other hand, a first production serialized piece might have been worth more.... but i like what i got.

soldierofchrist35Sounds like you snuck in right between the old stock running out, and the website clearance price being updated. That's a hell of a deal you got there 👍

crowleykirkThe pocket clip is sturdy, a little tight though.

mrroeyI don't get those that want blades under 3.5, they don't seem useful at all at that size. What the small blade like? I finally got a Benchmade Bugout... really don't like it at all. Needs to be at least 3.4 to be useful. But that's just me.

crowleykirkDepends on what your life is like i guess. I have a variety of sizes for different things. But for an average day, the most I use a pocket knife for is opening boxes, envelopes, cutting the occasional random thing, and generally being in office type settings or around other people who may or may not be comfortable with some random guy whipping out a 4 inch "tactical" blade. In most of those cases i want something that carries small, so it's not in the way of limited pocket space, and many times really don't need more than an inch of the blade at a time. I have larger knives for the days I know I'm planning activities that may require something larger. To me it's like anything else, the right tool for the job, with minimum necessary inconvenience. I COULD hang a picture with a 5lb sledgehammer, but I'm not going to 😉
Can we get confirmation that this will have their new logo on the bag and blade?

You can find a kizer task 1 (also goes by t1 for $120 shipped if you look around. Blade is closer to 3-1/4" rather than 3.6" and While i like my bestechs it is a better looking knife for less imo. Ti framelock w steel lockbar insert and overtravel stop, nice wide s35vn blade on bearings in stonewash finish that kizer does so well. 3d milled ti clip. I think its 4.2 oz overall. Just depends what you want but to me $150 is alot of money for a Chinese knife (so is $120 honestly and is the most ive spent on a foreign blade but retails for $179 normally on. Bhq etc). Enough to buy an American made benchmade , spyderco etc, just not one of their ti Framelocks but a nice one none the less but these are just my opinions.
