    Those who know knives know that the late Bob Lum designed some phenomenal knives, and this is one of them. It is known as one of the premier carry knives, combining features found in all Benchmade knives like incredible blade material selection, edge durability, and finish quality.

    The action is the smoothest unassisted knife I've ever owned, and the entire piece is perfectly balanced when open. The G10 handles are very light weight, look great, and provide plenty of grip. This isn't a crazy serrated tactical survival knife. It is an expertly crafted, and increasingly rare EDC knife that will appreciate over time if cared for. Edge is razor sharp.

    Specs:

    Benchmade Dejavoo 740
    Blade: 3.95" of 530v
    Grips: G10 carbon
    Overall weight: 4.1 oz
    Blade Lock Safety: Yes
    Condition: Used - Like New. Blade has no nicks or evidence of use, grips are flawless.

    Knife is NOT assisted OR automatic which allows for legal carry in most all states. It uses a very smooth bearing-like action and a Spyderco inspired blade hole for opening. Very predictable and consistent method to open and close the knife.

    Why am I selling?

    I have too many knives and EDC an old Benchmade from military service. I'm sentimental about that specific one, and so even though this is a better knife it's been sitting in my gun safe since I got it.

    A knife like this just isn't meant to sit on a shelf.

    Used Dejavoos like this are going for $220+ on Ebay and other knife forums with their original boxes. I don't keep boxes for my knives as I put them into my temp and humidity controlled gun safe and they would take up too much room. I'm knocking $50 off for the missing cardboard box. I'll ship it for free (with tracking & insurance).

    Bump, price drop to $160. Can't go any lower than that.
