New Benchmade Griptilian

Dylankeith · Mar 23, 2016

My new Benchmade Griptilian came in the mail. It turns out the mailman put the package behind a large potted plant on my front porch on Monday. I didn't even realize this till today and I never received an email from Benchmade that my knife had even shipped. Well anyways I'm happy to have it now and tonight I installed the custom scales I got for it. I'm loving the way it looks and feels.

The axis lock was pretty stiff when i unboxed it, but after working with it for the day its much smoother.

Nice, I like the orange. The aftermarket scales usually transforms this knife to the next tier in my opinion.

Looks great!! Love the handle color and blade. Think you made an excellent choice.

How did the scale swap go?

Ehh not the cleanest install process. I stripped one of the T6 screws and had a hell of a time getting it out. Otherwise it wasn't too bad.

These scales definitely make the knife feel much nicer and more solid.

Congrats. It's great to be able to order a Grip the way you want it...
