| 14200 over a ... | Login/Join |
Power Forumite  |
Just thot this'd be a good place to discuss how I'd take the 14200 over a 615 any day. When I got my 14200 and flicked 'er open it just came to me like that: "This is better than my 615." Both are purdy big and fat. Both feel like brick turd houses. 14200 has sweeter Snody grinds, better grip, equally great ergos, and a studier pocket clip. Seems crazy that the 14200 is not near as popular as the Ruk. So what about you--14200 or 615? ..............................................................................................................................

Well, since you asked, and I've said this before, but I'll go with the 14205. It's just as tough--if not tougher--than a 615. It certainly has a beefier/thicker blade. And with it's finger choil and thumb jimping, it has better ergos than a 615, imho.   Where's Doc Pringles? He loves his too.I'm always surprised that the 14205 doesn't get more attention. | |||

+2..love the HK line of knives.Especially the 14200.I don't have the 205 yet.I like the alum. bolster on the 200.It gives it a cooler look.It's probably the price that makes the 615 more popular..Since it cost more it's gotta be a better knife.Right?...I don't think so..  | |||

Hey, I’m here!!!  I am a certified HK Snody nut. I have a 14205, 14210 and 14255. The HK Axis models are the best deal in the Benchmade line-up. The smoothest action of any model they make with the best feeling G-10 around. The liners and spacers contribute to the overall look and ROCK SOLID feel of the knife. The blade is where these models really shine. It’s really one of a kind. I would love a 14200 and I’m not a big bolster fan. As Trailboss quotes from the movie Blazing Saddles, the Tanto 14255 just says “excuse me, while I whip this thing out.”  Yes 14205 over the 615 gets my vote. BTW: The 14200 has been discontinued for a few years. BRING IT BACK!!! HK 14200   Lum Lunatics Charter Member #4 | |||

But ultimately I settled on the 522/520 over both. 581BK-1102 Hybrid, 585-1BK Mini Barrage, 587SBK-1 Mini Warn, Bradley Alias I LE, 581, 525/Bone Collector, 941BLU, 520BK/Bone Collector, 760Ti Krein Regrind, 583SBK-1 Warn Tanto, HK14210, 707-701, 140HS, 551-101 Gold Grip, 941BC, 950BK M4, 220, 30, 42, 32, 53 | |||

The 14205 is like a tough-talkin' red-headed woman. They ain't for everybody. But some guys--and you know who you are  -- are drawn to them like moths to a flame.I don't think there's any "maybe" about it. You either like 'em or you don't.  | |||
