I think the Benchmade Monochrome is an impressive knife for the money- very solidly built. However, I did have some trouble opening mine due to the smooth handles; my fingers slid down the handle and I would lose my grip.
I solved the problem by putting a small amount of automotive epoxy in the form of a 1/4 inch wide square about 3/4 of the way down the handle. When my fingers hit that I'm able to open the blade alot easier.
Has anyone else found the smooth handle to be a problem?
