Benchmade Review
I won this knife in a recent IKC contest. I thought I would do a knife review on it for everyone. I just received it today, so it will take me a little while to do the review. I'll keep ya'll posted on it's ups and downs.

Robert excellent review. Paul's testimony was outstanding as well.
I have been a Benchmade owner 15 times over, I do not own all 15 knives anymore, but I kept 9, my favorites. They make an outstanding product.

Well I am a year late to the day on my comments about this review, but I've only just joined a little while ago!
Great review in that you give great spec details, and Paul does a great job of explaining the specific "chores" or tasks the knife performed.
Good job. Now, for a really good review on the knife...how about sharing with us how it has performed for you over the past year? Have any of the original comments changed after a year of use / abuse? Let's hear the continuing sga of your Benchmade!
Thanks!

Robert,
After a lengthy time of not buying any new knives, I received a giftcard for my birthday this last weekend. After buying a Leatherman Wave multitool, there was about $100 left so I picked up a Spearpoint Griptillian. Aside from my feeling that the handle feels "cheap", It is an exceptional value knife. Great steel, Great lock. But, I don't think it will bump my Para2 out of my pocket.
