i know you have a knife on you.
we can talk hunting knives to death. no problemo. i looked, not a lot of chatter about folders..the lowly EDC. (not so lowly for some of you).
i've been working in the field (civil engineer) some more lately. short handed here. i dusted off my first Benchmade. i bought it back in the year 2000, and it is a bruiser. we were REQUIRED to carry a knife while working in a tunnel. in a fire, we have to cut thru thick thick canvas to safety. i was happy to have the partial serrations; which i never buy these days.
i had to send this one back to Benchmade to see if they thought the hinge was loose. it barely wiggled...they sent back a letter describing the pivot as "critical!"..i was blown away at what they considered critical. haha..it came back ROCK SOLID. it felt like a fixed blade upon its return.
i love this thing. its kinda ugly, since purple is my most hated color. i bought it stupidly from the most expensive knife store on the planet. the one at pier 39 in San Fransisco. the seller talked me into the Spyderco Sharpmaker at the same time..i blew thru my college money that day. idiot. (still have both!!)
i dont own a lot of knives..only two benchmades.
