There are other good brands, but if you looked no further than Benchmade, you’d still be well served. I currently own 3 Benchmade folders (485 Valet, 940-2 Osborne, 570 Presidio II “First Production”), a Benchmade fixed blade (183BK Contego), and two Benchmade 7 BLKW Rescue Hooks.fernando1027 wrote: ↑Thu Jun 07, 2018 10:39 pm Too many brands .... wondering what everyone else is caring every day ... I do not have a price range was looking some benchmade knifes :)
It is worth noting that I paid nowhere near MSRP for any of these items. I bought three of the items on Amazon - the 485, the 183, and the Rescue Hooks. I bought the limited edition 570 Presidio II on ebay. And I bought the 940-2 on sale at a considerably discounted price at the 5.11 Tactical store in Frisco.
Of all of those, the 940-2 is my EDC knife; and IMHO, if a pocket folder is what you want, then the 940 family of knives may be the best EDC knives ever made.
