Which one you advice me to choose? Benchmade Presidio 520 or the Benchmade 950 Osbourne Design Rift ? I like them both but i am in the middle :confused: Please help me with yor opinion
 
Rift wins it for me. Honestly for the money i dont think anything comes close
 
Presidio FOR SURE. Super solid knife that is super reliable and the aluminum handles make you feel like you're handling a real winner.
The rift is a bit weird especially those designs on the handle.

Weird, I feel exactly the opposite on that comparison. Much prefer the Rift . . .
 
I love the Rift. It's been my EDC for years now. Takes a great edge and good retention. I love the G10 handle.
 
Never handled either, but I prefer G10 handles to aluminum and love the reverse tanto blade on my 940, so if I were to buy one I'd go for the Rift.
 
Rift for me. Although I would advise you hold one before you make a decision. The pinky choil thing fits my hands (XL gloves) perfectly, but I can see it being a bit awkward if you had smaller hands.
 
I have a 950 and think it is a great knife. Big enough to use but not to big for an EDC. Axis lock is great and mine came super sharp right from BM. Don't own a 520 but happy with my 950.
 
520 for me. Super tough enough, darkly elegant. Big but not too big. A beautiful thing. Just take the clip off and wear it in a sheath.
