  • Today marks the 24th anniversary of 9/11. I pray that this nation does not forget the loss of lives from this horrible event. Yesterday conservative commentator Charlie Kirk was murdered, and I worry about what is to come. Please love one another and your family in these trying times - Spark

Should I get a Benchmade 810 Contego?

I like my 810 a great deal. Yes, it is large and it does have some aggressive jimping. However, realistically I don't expect to be using it nor any of my folders for hours on end or as a bush knife so, for me, it's no big deal. The overall aesthetics and steel characteristics overrule any minor qualms I might have about my hand getting a little sore from a sharp edge. YMMV To answer your question.... Yes, get one.

Thanks man. Love that shot of your M390. Im saving up for it right now.l
 
I was hoping for the more blue than black scales. I didn't get lucky on mine, but it's still a keeper for me.
 
Personally, I think there are better knives out there for your money. Spyderco Gayle Bradley comes to mind.
 
I've got it in m4 cerakote, It's great solid rides nice and low in the pocket the ergos are rough and I'm not one to complain but it's still been in my bag or pocket since I got it.
