It's a little small, but the lanyard fixed that. Mine came from the factory only moderately sharp, so I fixed it. I probably got a fluke, but I've never had a knife from a major company like Benchmade come less than very sharp, until this one. It's growing on me. I love the Axis lock, and it's a very handy little thing. I have it's big brother, the 551 also. Excellent knife as well.

EDC - What's In Your Pocket(s)??? Part 2
- Thread starter Kaizen1
- Start date
Today's EDC load out.
The SRM 710 went to work with me so sharp it would bleed you if you stared at it too long. It came home quite dull. Broke down dozens of cardboard boxes, and cut many feet of Cat6 cable with it. It still locks up tight, though, and resharpening is quick and easy. Good knife, little money. Excellent value.

It figures; the first time I go to post in this thread, and my camera's on the fritz. Cell phone to the rescue!
Not picured:
LG Octane, a flip-phone with a thumbpad. It's my not-very-smart phone that's taking this amateur spread.
A Kindle that I left out because it's presently charging.
Fenix LD10. I'm a huge fan of single AA lights.
Pictured:
Brown leather wallet, Kohl's edition.
PE Spyderco Squeak; I don't think it comes in any other flavor but 'black' and 'PE', and I love it very much.
G-Shock Mudman. it left my wrist for a few seconds to make love to the camera.
Zebra F-301. A simple clicky, black ballpoint. Sometimes gets swapped out for a blue Fisher space bullet pen.
Keys with a translucent blue SAK Classic. Far and away my most used knife, and one of two that I've successfully sharped on the unpolished underside of a coffee cup.
Ipod Touch in a Skull Candy case. I like the colors, but there's no clip.

Here is the knife/light combo I've been carrying lately. (HDS Systems Rotary, cerakote Sniper gray, and CRK Mnandi) Usually also have keys, phone, wallet, and pen.
My weekend carry. Not pictured is my HTC EVO phone that I used to take photo.

Would have to say it's my favorite EDC knife of all time. Think I have 7 (not incl the tat), 3 of which are identical backups in case of loss or damage..
The one in the edc pic belonged to a few guys before me and is all beat to hell, but it locks up tight as a locked blade.
