Hello Nick. This is probably the best or one the three best knives I have (with my ZT 0640 and the benchmade carbon+S90V). A super slicer and very ergonomic. There were in fact 4 variants of this knife: the 3 you mentioned and an other one with carbon scale, black blade (same as wood scale one) and anodised blue titanium liners. I bought same as yours 2 years ago and I liked it so much that I bought the jade G10 two weeks after in order to have a spare blade if, one day, I would have a problem with my carbon one. I don't like the jade G10 one because if you have wet hands of if you lubricate the pivot, liquid will go between liners and scale, making stains that can stay in case of oil A dutch website sold Saakshi(s) at a very good price last year and I shared this information to a friend of mine who bought the carbon one with blue liners. I was so impressed that I waited a while until a finnish web site sell it at at an interesting price this year (in march) So I bought my third one... I had an issue with it, not correctly maintained while closed and I ruined a torx print screw while trying to disassembly it. A mail to the we knife customer service and it sents me all spare screws, bearings etc and 4 different size of lock bar inserts very quickly (4 days between first mail and the delivery of the stuff. NB: I live in France...) So, I would recommend it if it was not discontinued... Salut
Yeah it's a shame it was discontinued but it sounds like your covered. I do really like the knife as well it is very ergonomic and slices with the best of em. Thx for checking out the review. For the price range this knife is hard to beat
