Well my birthday is comming on the 5th, and I'll have about $100 bucks to spend... Well I've been eyeing the Benchmade Sequel.. I like the overall shape and thinness (Which is whats holding me back from the Mini-Grip). Well being as I'm a coutious buyer, I'd like to know what people think about this knife... Thanks!

It's a really nice knife. Great for everyday carry because it's so compact. Great blade shape. The only thing that I didn't like was the flare at the top of the handle, I thought it was kind of awkward. The grip does have better ergonomics but it's definitely not as pocketable.

Funny that I have an almost identical post up on two other forums. Can't decide between a 556 or a 707. Leaning toward the 707 'cause of the overall slimmer package for EDC and higher tier feel of the aluminum handles like my 940. The $35 price difference is manageable for the upgrade. Although, performance wise I'd consider both very equal... it'd come down to personal preference in the end.

I used to own one. I thought it was a very well made knife and the blade was awesome. I ended up selling it because the handle was too small for me. I could barely get a full 4 finger grip on it. I ended up getting a Mini-Griptilian and actually liked it better. It gave me just a tiny bit more handle to grab onto.
