Benchmade 710 AXIS video

[ginshun]

For everyone who was wondering what the 710 was like in hand, or how an axis lock worked. This specific 710 is the M2 version, hence the black coating, which I would not have otherwise ordered, but you don't have a choice with M2.

Cool vid man, thanks!

you know I was in a store looking at both the 806 and 710 trying to decide. Hard, hard choices. 45minutes later I got the 806 cause they didn't have the M2 710 I wanted. I still see pics of it and wonder "What If...."

You were in a store that actually had an 806? When was this?

BTW, cool video, thanks for sharing.

710 is a great knife, in anycase.

Don't realy like that knife,something about clip-points bug me. but the flip at the end was SWEET.

The 710 is super rad. It's my favorite, my EDC. The 806 is a pretty badass knife too. I have a matching set, because I'm a dork like that. One with the clip set up for each pocket so I can go "boo-yah!" and have one in each hand- for no particular reason. So I can lay waste to vast swaths of cardboard.

I agree with Zealot- that flip is sweet. I have to learn that. I'm sure I'm going to cut myself soon. Thanks a lot!

Nice! Thanks for posting it!

You guys are going to be so disapointed when you get that flip down. It looks much less impressive in real life. LOL.

About the 806, I was looking through an old catalog at the 806 with the hole instead of the stud, in D2. Too late to think "what a great knife, I should really get one". I think I got the Homer Simpson voice just right when I remembered that the 806 was discontinued.

As for the 710, I was holding out for a 154CM, but would take a D2 version. Thanks for the vid!
