Whats the best benchmade workhorse knife???

The first thing that comes to mind is a griptilian. But have you considered a 755 MPR? It's a Sibert design and has M 390 blade steel.
 
Workhorse: 710 (M390)

EDC in Jeans: 710 (M390)

EDC in Slacks: 940

Skip the Grips and gun for the gold.
 
The 710 gets my vote. Very nice no-nonsense working knife.

The Griptilian is nice for lighter duty / EDC, but I prefer the 710 for harder work.
 
All the Benchmade blades I've handled seemed to be designed first as good cutting tools. I have a 710 and a Mini-Rukus, both built like tanks, that I would trust to hold up under heavy use.
 
for me its the adamas 275 tied with the 810 contego both beefy knives but they can take a beating and just keep begging for more.

I agree with these for workhorse knives. I think all benchmades are good working knives, depending on your work. These 2are the biggest and toughest.

Agree. Any Benchmade I have ever owned or handled has been well designed and highly functional.
 
i'm actually trying to abuse my 275 as much as possible , I can get it rebladed for 30 bucks anyway, it's a hell of a knife and is tough as nails. I cut up a bunch of redbull cans and it barely even scratched the coating, I gotta think of more ways to punish this beast.Also have done the twist cut method on the industrial strength zipties that has ruined many of edges but not the 275, I dunno what i can do to this knife that it wont take. Only thing I won't do is spinewhacks, completely pointless IMO
