Really impressed by this knife, much moreso than I initially was when looking at it online. I think it's the best 120-130$ you can spend on a hard use pocket knife in the current market.

Good review. Just wanted to add that the blade thickness is actually .160", weight is 7.7 ounces, which by the way is the weight of the ZT0200. Another thing I noticed is that the steel liners are ~.080" thick, again the thickness of the ZT0200. I have two of the ZT's and agree that they are the best value hard use knife on the market, but with the Adamas, Benchmade has just made an inroad into that!!

Again, good review!

Blade Length: 3.82"
Blade Thickness: 0.160"
Handle Thickness: 0.730"
Blade Material: D2 Tool Steel
Weight: 7.70oz. Eeker


Awesome Vid. Perfect timing too.

This knife is not an EDC but does fill a roll in the Benchmade line up. D2 (my fav), G10, Axis with an awesome low rider clip (yea I said it). The real shocker is the price. Yes, D2 is inexpensive comparatively but is harder on the manufacturing process.

I could never lug this beast around in a pants pocket but can think of many other uses. I have not handled this knife so be advised. All my thoughts are subject to change at any time.

Thanks Dingo.

After carrying around today, I can safely say that this knife is a winner. I'll post up a more in depth review in a bit, but this knife reminds me so much of the Benchmade Rukus its uncanny. The weight is exactly the same, as is the blade thickness and feel of the deployment.

Big Grin If it had scissors and tweezers, the late Andre might have called it a SAK Classic.

Please don't tell me it reminds you of a Rukus. I don't need that kind of temptation! Wink

ditto - nice "mini" review

Dingo, now that you mention it, it is remminescient of the 610 Rukus.

No hope Jan.......might as well bite the bullet and get one!

Oh my...Eeker...thanks Will!

Well, I know I want to try one, but the comparison with the 610 really puts it over the top. I'm waiting for the sand G-10, but I've got my pre-order in.
