Benchmade / Zero Tolerance

My vote is benchmade. I have a 550 and I can whip that thing open as fast and effortlessly as any assisted.

Haven't used a zt yet, so can't say anything on them but I hear they're good. Just love my bm. The lifesharp service is amazing. Last time I sent mine in they basically replaced everything other than the blade and the grips

After looking at videos using these Assisted blades. Iv noticed a struggle closing the knives. Throws ease of use and EASY one handed operation out the window.

Decided to go against assisted.
Decided to stick to the axis system so BM- No having to reach for a spine. Ease of use.

Options with prices in my area. (note this isn't usd it's cad) but the ratios stay the same.


Benchmade 940 s30v version - The weight---------------------------240
benchmade Nakamura - Just looks great--------------250
Benchmade 908 Stryker - Cool -----------200
Benchmade North Fork - Looks good------180
Benchmade 710 D2 version ----------------200
benchmade 698 Foray --------------------- 250
Griptillian - (new version) it's ok. -------------------230

What do you knife fellas think?

Third vote for ZT0452CF
Edit: Its heavier, larger, but absolutely a beast. Tough. Joy to flip. Probably the smoothest factory made flipper ever. Great profile. Working clip. Easy to disassemble. Cuts anything. Perfect balance.

I have never been impressed with ZT, even if Gibbs does carry one. I do like BM and the Stryker has a good, all around blade design. I have one. Also, the 710 would be a good choice and it has stood the test of time. I would get the knifeworks.com exclusive.

Now, to throw a wrench into the works...you might also look at the Spyderco Police 3 which is comparable to the 710. It can be closed with one hand, also and is about $150.

If you're looking at the 908, let's muddy the waters a bit more, you have to check out the KSF exclusive!!
Carbon Fiber scales and coated M4 blade....fantastic blade!!
