I am looking to get a new fixed Benchmade knife that I can carry on a day to day basis... Legally speaking, it has to be exactly 4 inches or smaller for me to carry... i can conceal it or caryr open, doesnt matter... help me find one.
 
glockman, isnt the nimravus a bigger blade??? or is it just 4 inches?? I cant remember off the top of my head...

I am familiar with the Fixed Resistor, only thing i dont like about it is the fact that it has a rounded edge to it, if i remember correctly.

outbounder.... no clue what it is..

i am going to check out the nimravus now. thanks
 
It might be a bit smaller than you were considering, but I really like the 210. It was the first fixed blade I carried often and it really changed my mind about carrying fixed blades and showed me that carrying a fixed blade can be just as comfortable as carrying any folder. Now, I only carry fixed blades and never folders. The 210 is so easy to carry, and big enough for most things. The G-10 and CF version looks incredible!
 
I've owned the Griptilian FB, the Nim Cub and the River Rescue. I would go for the Nim Cub, smaller than the other two, and built like a tank. Mine has ATS34 steel, but you can find them in 154CM too. Its discontinued, so get your Indiana Jones theme music ready.
 
I believe the BM Rant Bowie is just what you're looking for. Comes with leather sheath. If you get the drop point version it's nylon I believe. The Rant Bowie is a great knife for about $50.
 
Nice choice.

I have the Resistor and was going to tell you all the reasons I DON'T like it but I see that isn't needed.

Enjoy your new knife.

Regards
 
The activator is a great knife but the blade is SMALL. I'd check some comparison pics so you can see the size.

I got one and loved it (great ergos, beautiful, very well built) but ended up selling it because I'm more on folders and It didn's see the light. I hated its sheath, way too big for a small fixed.
 
I might get a custom sheath for it too..

bladeprince, lets hear it... tell me why you didnt like the resistor.... i still wanna hear it..

i am about to leave to go go NGK
