So in celebration of the success of Mark's M4 AFCK Crusade, I'll be carrying my 806SD2 for this week. I haven't carried this piece since December 2005, if I remember correctly. Sorry for the poor lighting. | ||

I am brand new to Benchmade and got a 520 for Christmas and it hasn't left my pocket since!!! So long Spyderco! ********************** Chris Wanted: 710BK, 615, 943, 140BK, Rescue Hook 5 Own: 520, 551BKODD2 | |||

Topher, I would think anyone who likes a 520 would also like a 525. Its tough like a 520. It's significantly beefier than a 94x knife. The 94x might be a little better as a gentleman's knife because the handle is thinner. The 525 is still a tough worker type knife. A no mess around, and don't get in my way kind of knife. -fj ********************** ********************** You are the Sum of Your Actions. Knife Rights Member | |||

Fastjan, I see what you mean, one of my buddies, Rezarf, has a 943 so I can finally get my hands on one. The 94* series are great looking knives but I am worried they are to small. I have moderately big hands and the 520 fits my hand like a dream. The 525 is a 3" right? ********************** Chris Wanted: 710BK, 615, 943, 140BK, Rescue Hook 5 Own: 520, 551BKODD2 | |||

Topher, I couldn't have said it better than Fastjan. So I won't. I have largish hands too, and also love the 520. The 525 is perfect for times when the 520 might seem like a bit much. Yeah, it's blade is just under 3" so it's more people-friendly. The 943 is a great knife: you'll end up with one of them sooner or later too. But I'd get a 525 next.This message has been edited.
