#18 just landed today. This knife feels every bit as good as it looks. Light, solid, gorgeous. It is what I have always hoped for from Benchmade, custom quality, Axis lock, and Benchmade precision. Fantastic.

Too bad you're not just a little closer, I could take a few pics of the thing for you and put them up. Still anything's possible... I played with one of these a week ago and it's everything a person could want in one knife. Benchmade really did well, and on this example I could find no flaws anywhere. 350, 520, 525BK-1101, 530, 580-1102, 580 Proto, 583-1, 585-1, 710-1, 710-2, 710D2, 710HS, 722, 732, 740, 740 Proto, 741, 745, 746, 746-1201, 750, 790, 800, 800HS, 805-1101, 810, 812, 830, 831, 835HS, 840, 845, 890, 905, 907D2, 910, 910SCG, 912D2, 913D2, 12400 Proto, 12410, 14205, 14210, 40022-100.

Yes. This is a great knife. It has to be one of Benchmade's top five best production knives ever made, along with the Gold Class 525, Gold Class Skirmish, 940DM, and CF-M4 AFCK LEs. Everything is hand-made quality, or better. The fluted handle surface is functional and beautiful, the BC fasteners and pocket clip are something you might only find on a collector grade hand-made knife, milled back spacer, thumb studs, and Axis buttons, super-premium blade steel. The Axis lock itself is superior to all but the most precise hand made button locks. The blade grind is perfect. The only possible non-premium feature on it is the lack of a hand finish, but the BK coating somewhat makes up for that. The only drawback is, you can have a hand satin finished blade re-finished any time, but a BK coated blade you can't refinish. Fit and finish are flawless. In fact the pivot seems extraordinarily smooth. I pull back on the lock bar, and the blade swings almost without any resistance, yet there is no lateral blade play. Most of my Axis knives, I like to adjust all but the tiniest amount of lateral blade play out, and that means a slightly retarded blade swing. Not with this knife. This is absolutely the last Benchmande, probably the last folder, I would part with. 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 | |||
