KnifeWorks, the company that handles many of the Benchmade LE runs including the official BM Forum Knife line, plans to have a pretty solid quote to me on Tuesday on doing both the standard Mini Grip and Ritter Mini Grip. If we do the Ritter, KnifeWorks is the only retailer that carries it IIRC. As a very large BM retailer, their quantity of orders should help keep prices lower and it may actually be cheaper through them versus Benchmade!
I will ask about the possibility of having both small and large size models done or other varying options...price-wise, I would expect the full-sized to be around $15-30 more than a Mini if that so happened (partly why I think if we only do one size, Mini over full would be the best option)...if we split up what we order or have major variations by knife, it will cost somewhat more and be significantly more complicated...while not a fortune more or impossible to pull off, I'll post in the next thread all of the findings to allow everyone to see/consider the options to determine what is worth doing.
