Please Benchmade

Benchmade you are starting to remind me of another brand called balasong that had to close its doors because of bad quality control. I'm sad to say that you are going down the same road. You used to be my favorite brand and you were a milestone in my knife collecting. Benchmade you were the first knife I spent over 50 dollars on but now I will only buy a Benchmade from a brick and mortar store and even then it has to be a damn good knife for me to buy it.

So dear Benchmade please fix your quality control so that me and many others can love your knives once again.

curious as to whether this in regards to a specific benchmade you own? any further details on issue you're referring to? or just in general, shooting the breeze and such?

I have owned about 20 Benchmade over the past five years and sense then the quality has been slowly declining. This year I decided to try and buy a Benchmade sight unseen so I bought a freek it had blade play both ways the blade was off center and the axis had lock stick. Five years ago I could go buy a Benchmade and I might get a little side to side play and that's about it. It's sad really because I used to love Benchmade.
