Best on the market
I have wanted a benchmade for awhile and finally got one and this knife did not disappoint. It’s light and still very durable and sturdy. The package arrived promptly but that’s never been an issue. Was extremely sharp out of the box and I have already used it for several different tasks. Everyone says this knife is overpriced but please remember, if you’re considering buying one, that they want you to keep this knife for forever. If you ever find it not as sharp as when it first arrived, some of the steels can be difficult to sharpen with normal sharpeners, then send it to them and they will sharpen it for you and send it back. If anything mechanical happens, send it back and they with fix it. They truly make beautiful/functional knives that are of the best quality and perfect EDC.

Great knife. Over priced
Update: while I stand by my statement, I did spend another $100 on titanium scales because it’s just my favorite knife. The g10 feels light and cheap hence my statement below.Nice knife. I always wanted a Benchmade. Perfect size for EDC IMHO but definitely over priced.

sturdy blade
it's Benchmade so you know you're getting a quality blade for the price it's durable good steel ergonomic and easy to deploy however I believe the blade is overpriced and a little overrated

Really nice knife!
The media could not be loaded. This knife is as light in the hand and easy to carry in the pocket as advertised. The blade was shaving sharp and the action was drop shut smooth with solid lock up right out of the box.I find flicking the knife open with my thumb to be very natural and needed zero break-in.The grivory (plastic) handle scales do have some flex. To me on a knife with a sub three inch blade that's not a big deal because the smaller size limits how much it flexes and because this isn't supposed to be a hard use knife.The handle is very slim but still comfortable with enough texture for a secure hold without being abrasive. It's just big enough for me to get a four finger grip. I wear a men's size large gloves, so those with big hands may find their pinky hanging off the end.The small pocket clip is my favorite style that Benchmade has and is very easy to get in and out of the pocket. Because the knife sits so deep in the pocket with this clip you get security knowing the knife won't come out and also a discrete appearance.I love buying American made products and am very happy to support Benchmade with all their knives made in Oregon.From a price standpoint Benchmade charges a premium even among American knife makers, so I can't call it a amazing value, but the price tag isn't so high that it's unreasonable.For a quality sub 3 inch bladed, lightweight, American made knife in my opinion this is the top of the heap.
