I agree. It should have been aluminum like the original.

[clemansky]

I really hope this follows Benchmades pattern of doing a fullsize then a mini then adding both to the custom shop, they did it for the Griptillian, Barrage, Crooked River and Bugout -the 940 would be a great one to follow suit!

Oh wow, didn't see this coming at all but very exciting, I think the Protech Malibu just lost its first place on my wishlist! Thanks for sharing!

[susanjavier]

I'm excited for it, I have the regular 940 and just the other day I was holding it and said to myself wish it was smaller and I hardly carry mine, so I guess I'm getting one now, Thanks for sharing

[jasonbrown]

Interesting!! I need to get a 940 period . I still somehow don’t own one . Thanks for the heads up . Take care ...

The blue liners look really good for the mini.

[caseytyler]

I’ve been waiting for this for years lol

[davidh]

Very interesting. Might have to get one of these.

[GromMolotok]

I like the smaller size in theory. We'll have to see how well they pull it off.

[larrymarsico]

Oh SNAP!!! I gotta get one ASAP!💯🙋‍♂️🤤

[DuCuirDesLames]

At first : buy a 940-2, after that try to have enough money to buy the mini LOL Thank you for sharing :)

[erhon]

I prefer aluminum as well but I think there are a lot of exclusives in g10 so it must sell well

[danegavrilovski]

It should be in it's normal form first, saten and green aluminum.

[OLMmedic]

Pretty cool. I want one but not a g10 fan either

[brewer]

It's out at knife works and blade HQ to the only other 2 I know of

[faethe]

That's really pricey for a small G10 knife.

[gregshock]

Ahhh, aluminum looks like crap so fast, compared to G10.

[jagpilotohio]

Yawn...940 never really did it for me. Blade shape isn’t my cup of tea.

[LB-npzv]

Why would you need to make a small knife smaller

[HeCalledTheShitPP]

This says 945-1. That gives me the impression that there will be just a 945 coming out too. Hopefully with an aluminum handle. Definitely snatching one of these up regardless
