Iconic Benchmade

I don't know a lot about knives, but I associate griptilian as benchmade! Love mine!

The 710 and Griptilian. Model 42 is definitely historic, but not really "iconic." It would be more equivalent to something like the 119 for Buck than the 110.

Spoken like someone who has probably never owned a 42. It is most definitely iconic. Benchmade cut their teeth on Balisongs and the 42 was and still is one of the best examples ever put out.

The Griptilian could very well be considered iconic just because of the shear number sold but IMO it's the least interesting Axis lock of the bunch (least in stock form). I would vote 710 well before.

Balisongs, AFCKs, 710, 94x, Ares, and Grips are prob the most iconic.
Hard to really choose just one design, but can't go wrong with any of the classics.

Grip and in close second triage followed by the volli!
