Another perfect Benchmade

[MolokaiRider]

I plan to grab a sheepsfoot model one day. I really like the Griptillion.

Excellent choice Mike! I have that one plus the sheepsfoot version and they're two of my favorites. Absolutely perfect from the factory as well.

I need to find the sheepsfoot version. Ty

Nice scores. I'm getting close to capacity with my accumulation agin, but I have to admit that Bailout still tempts me.

I've had good luck with Benchmade the past few years. If anything, the most I have to deal with is a slightly uneven grind at the tip, but that's a pretty easy fix.

I have had nothing but good luck both from FTF dealers and private sales. I searched and searched, couldn't come up with the "perfect for me" daily pocket carry, went from Stryker to Foray to a Proper in a clip slip holster, finally went to purposely look at a Fact and was less than impressed. In the next case over were the 940's, I picked one up and left with it in my pocket. I had been avoiding all the cartridge type frames because I didn't give them a chance - fully lined frames are the best right? Well, unless I am camping, this knife is in the pocket of whatever I am wearing. Camping is generally with a 150 Cub.

Happy Thanksgiving all!

I picked up a Sheepsfoot Grip a couple of weeks ago, and I know that you'll be happy with them!

These two Griptilians get a lot of pocket time so I decided to get the Mini...

i buy most of my benchmades used, because i have a prefer a lot of the discontinued models, so they do sometimes have issues. the new ones ive gotten recently (a 417 & a custom 15080) were both perfect as far as i’m concerned.

the worst problem i’ve ever had with a new bm was a bit of vertical play on an 810 i got a few years ago. no worries tho, it worked itself out on its own as i broke it in.

My North Fork also qualifies as perfect. The action is smooth as glass, the blade is beyond wicked sharp, and its even nicely centered!

Now that is a purty knife. I always passed on that model but really should have picked one up.

Do it: do it now!!

I was in Cabelas today and had to have the 417 Fact. Looked at this knife at Benchmade but didn’t purchase last week. Very nice almost 4 inch blade of S30V. This one is nearly perfect with a slight favor to one side when closed: another great knife!

I bought one today...another perfect Benchmade! It's like a 21st century BM Spike

I have to admit I have not bought a Benchmade in many years but I have always found them to be manufactured to a very high standard. I'm considering a 551 as pictured above or the newer carbon fibre handled Bugout, I expect I won't be disappointed.
