Eyar Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 going to get one of these soon, to carry everyday. nice multitool, pliers, knife, bottle opener, screw driver Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fist 666 Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 i gotta say i really hate the design on that. built in carabiner just screams cheap to me. and the sci-fi weight saving holes.... not for me. that ken brock up there is hot, i like most of his knives, but i wish he had a better logo. i think it really distracts from the rest of the knife.

Walid Jumblat Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 The long handle of that Leatherman looks painful to squeeze hard. When having to travel light in the field multitools are excellent pieces of kit. Design is everything though. I still haven't come across much that bettered my Schrade Power tool (posted a few pages back). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fist 666 Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 agreed. basic ergonomics on that piece are junk, if you actually have to squeeze on those pliers its going to be quite uncomfortable, and losing skin and a callous or two isn't an impossibility. drawing your own blood while trying to open an ammo case is highly overrated.

CALIgula Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 thinking about picking up a new benchmade knife at the local gun store...any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pertplus1 Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 Can't go wrong with a Griptilian. Seems to be the most popular benchmade knife, probably what i would get. I dont think you can go wrong with any benchmade though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fist 666 Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 fixed or folding, cali? Griptilians are great EDCs, but Benchmade makes so much cool shit its hard to recommend without knowing what you carry now, or want to carry, or what you're looking for in a knife. What do you like your handles to be made of? What kind of laws are you dealing with that limit what you can buy? Blade length? Overall weight--do you like heavy knives or prefer lighter stuff?

CALIgula Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 I was looking for a folding blade. sturdy handles that wont get damaged with moisture. im dealing with california laws...so blade length is limited...cant even get an automatic or gravity knife (if that was the case, i would have already bought a balisong years ago from benchmade)..but spring assisted knives are allowed...but i want a nice folding knife. if i dont buy a benchmade, i might go with kershaw. i like heavier studier knives for everyday use, and when i go out to the river. that griptilian looks nice though.

pertplus1 Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 benchmade adamas, also comes in black. heavy, sturdy, and outdoorsy. open: 7.6'' blade 3.6'' weight 5.1 ounce 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fist 666 Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 i'd push you towards the benchmade barrage, onslaught, or presidio (or the mini versions of each. i like griptilians, but they're not heavy enough for me, i like weight to my knives. find a shop that sells them so you can handle before you buy, imo. and then shop online and save yourself a shit ton. kershaw is 50/50. their locking mechanism breaks more easily than it should. i've had it go on 2 knives. but i know people who've carried the same leek or scallion for a couple years with no issue. maybe i'm hard on shit.

pertplus1 Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 onslaught is a dope design, i feel like it might be too big though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fist 666 Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 oh shit. i was thinking california was 3.5" not 3" onslaught and presidio are both out then. mini barrage is still an option, though weight is pretty similar to the griptilian. and you have more blade and color options with griptilian. anything against spyderco (w/ seki blades)?

pertplus1 Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 sorry, i didnt mean the blade was too long, i just think that handle is massive for EDC(imo), haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fist 666 Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 oh. probably true. depends on bagginess of pants worn. wouldn't work for me unless i was wearing acu/bdu's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CALIgula Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Fist 666 again. that onslaught looks legit! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
