Hey Guys,
So im thinking of picking up a new EDC,
I have a Benchmade Mini Grip and its my only Benchmade so far. I really like the look of the 707. And i have some questions about them.
Are the aluminum handles feel comfortable? If you scratch them (Lightly) do they leave marks on them? What do you like about it and what do you not like?
Thanks for any help, MattyLav
 
I've had mine for a while, at least two years, the grips are small but are comfortable if you have small-medium size hands. The handle feels comfortable enough, but nothing like a Delica or Endura ergonomics wise.
 
The 707 Sequel was my sole EDC through college.
Great little folder with 154-cm that holds its own.
Its comfortable in hand and in the pocket.
The black aluminum handle does show scratches easily but it looks better with a lil wear and tear.
 
Thanks guys. Oh and are the thumb studs to close to the handles?
No. In fact, of all my Benchmades the 707 seems to have the smoothest lock and opens up the easiest. I just can't get used to the ergonomics though, feels a bit too small, and so it stays at home. But that's just me.
 
Its a great little classy edc. Feels great in the hand but I think the handle is a little bit shorter than even the Mini Grip. If it had another 1/2 an inch or so on the handle, it would be a perfect small folder for me.
