What will be your next Benchmade knife purchase and why?

by Terry Ray

Nov 8, 2013

My personal purchase next from Benchmade Knife Co. I think will be the Fixed blade bushcrafter 162 Siebert Design New to the line up this year

It has a high ground drop point polished finished blade, made from S30V stainless steel (An American made and developed premium grade stainless steel created for knife blades. Its a powder made steel with a uniform carbide distribution and clean steel properties. As a blade material it offers excellent corrosion resistance and excellent edge qualities)

Hand blended-contoured green G10 handles with red, held together with pressed titanium tubing.

and a beautiful brushed full grained leather buckskin sheath with a D ring flint rod loop and retention strap , My Grandfather would love this sheath!

9.20 inches long overall and Retails for $200.00

this will be my next benchmade knife, I intend to use it hunting, fishing, I may even wear it around the house if my wife Cherry don't look at me too funny LOL

Tell me what will be your next Benchmade Knife and why

    I once owned a Benchmade Mini Griptillian with a partially serrated tanto blade. Due to an unfortunate porta-john incident, it was lost forever. Not because I couldnt find it, but because it was too icky to dive in after it. 

    I replaced it with a Spyderco Manix 2 because I couldnt find another Benchmade knife that made my loins tingle.

    Recently, I discovered the PROPPER 319. After researching (and fondleing,) i decided that it would be my next Benchmade.

    I plan on getting it by the end of February.

    I'm a bigger Benchmade fan today than ever before.  Here's my new 580-2 Barrage!

    Good evening!

    I found a couple of Benchmade® knives a little while back (I have photos of them in 'my photos'), and have been carrying at least one of them daily.  I have been pretty impressed with the edge retention of the knives and the overall build quality.  I would certainly consider Benchmade® as an option.  If I can find a 940BK-03 (Osborn in Burnt copper) for something I can afford, I would certainly get it.  A 15080-2 (Crooked River) would also be a good option.
