I have never owned an original. But I have a few of the new ones (get through work). The 6.75 black coated liner lock is sweet. It's small and very light. Opens smooth, but not a quick deploy knife. The 7.25" is about the same. Little easier to open and close. One of the smoothest knives I've felt. Both have g10 scales and vg-10 steel. Stays sharp and gets sharp easy. The pocket clips are a bit wimpy. I've had to loctite them in. The large tanto, same materials but came very very sharp. Again clip came loose and I had to loctite it back. But it's clip is much sturdier. Again, very smooth action. It's scales are kind of thin for the blade size. It flexes a small amount on heavy work. But no blade play.
The slippies, Nahh. Had 3 of the yellow jackets. They don't open smooth, edges are sharp and blades where not. May try a bone one but not keen on the ones I've had. Also, they are very thick and heavy.

Made in the USA?
Some of their fixed blades are USA made.

Unfortunately, no. When buyer on a budget, price matters more. They won't buy me any more Benchmade. And dealer we use has limited manufacturers lol
