Benchmade micro Pocket Rocket

[ZTFan]

Cool knife. Already preordered on Knifecenter.

Thoughts?

I like the looks. I'm a fan of Mr. Siebert's work. I just think that flipper tab will protrude quite a bit while closed. Not that I'd get it since it's a righty framelock.

 

[Kreyzhorse]

Looks cool, sort of a Spyderco Techno vibe.

I like the looks of that little guy, I think 400 bucks is a tad steep though.

Looks shorter OAL than Techno, ZT0900 or Half Track; not entirely certain I could go smaller than those. Regardless I'll be keeping an eye on this one.

Actual price seems to be 340. Still seems rather steep to me. I could be missing something though.

I agree. Seems like it would be better suited to sit in the $200 range.

Yes it does. When I first saw it, I thought to myself, I really like that, then I saw the price

Yeah, i guess its fine if you want a really really small titanium knife. But you can easily get a Benchmade Monolock/Mini or a Small Sebenza for this price.

Not much option to reposition the pocket clip though. I use both lanyard and clip, so having it tip down only is a bummer for me. But blade is thick and solid.

Yeah, that’s a really tiny knife for talking Sebenza money.

It says tip up on Benchmade's site.

I for one am excited about this one. Hope to put one in my hands at Blade Show next Weekend!

 

[FullMetalJackass]

Looks like an overpriced ZT made by Benchmade. So, I'll pass and get ZT's

It needs to be an actual custom to be $400, not even a midtech at that tiny size.

 

[ZTFan]

I’d be interested to hear Benchmade’s reasoning for the price, considering the same handle material and blade steel are used in my ZT 0393 and that only cost me $240. Is it harder to manufacture super small knives like that?

 

[SW-EDC]

$400. So many other knives I'd rather have.

 

[Planterz]

I never wanted a knife almost as thick as the blade is long. But to each his own...

Size, price, no lefty option - yearrr out!
