New Benchmade!

[Daniel Moore]

Three years ago (to this day) I got my first Benchmade- one of the 550's (plain edge, sheepsfoot, opening hole) in olive drab. It's held up great, and it's a tremendous knife. Now I get a Christmas present from my aunt and uncle (who enjoys hunting), and it's one of the Cabelas D2 Grips in olive drab! So now I have two awesome Griptilians Best of all, I can compare my older Grip to something, and it's held up 100%! They also got me a Leatherman Wave for Christmas a few years ago. They're good to me :thumbup:

Congrats on the Cabelas Grip. I have to say, as much as people talk about the handles feeling cheap, I think the Grips are some of the best value-to-price production knives available today. My Grips have held up great. Cheers to great gifts from great relatives (and to the relatives, I guess)!

Yep, both of my mom's brothers and their wives are very cool! The ones who gave me the knife live in Dallas and have a HUGE ranch in Montana, and her other brother lives in Maine. They're both big into deer and boar hunting, and for my Maine uncle's wedding in October I picked him up a Spyderco Native. Hopefully we'll get to go ice fishing at some point!
