    It’s amazing how that knife grows on you once you have it in hand; I love mine, can literally just pul back on the axis lock with the knife near horizontal and it will deploy all the way out, amazing. Thanks for the video

    I've had mine for about 6 months and I love it. One nice thing about having such a relatively narrow blade is that if you're cutting a material that sticks to flats, this blade profile really doesn't bind up. I carried it more in the summer (it's a great shorts knife!) and sometimes when I get a bit more dressed up.

    I have the all blacked put one and it's my favorite knife ever. The best edc and self defense folding knife out there.

    I picked one up just to add something different to the collection and I love it. It's so slim it really disappears in the pocket, like carrying a large pen. I noticed it has a unique looped omega spring to fit the small handles.

    I own a black coated one. Love it. They have a new auto/assisted one that just came out recently that is really, really nice that I will own here soon but it’s twice the price but looks justifiable. This knife is definitely self-defense driven. It’s best use is as a de-escalator. If someone is threatening to cause harm to you in a public place and you flick that blade out they’ll think twice about going to blows.

    • @theshitheads3178
      @theshitheads3178 Год назад +1

      That is called felonious assault in many jurisdictions. Do not brandish knives to deescalate. Like a gun, only bring them out if the only other option is death or grievous injury.

    I have one and I like it a lot. I got it several months ago and it has been my primary edc.
    I like it's small profile. It fits into pockets so easily. I consider this a great city knife. You are not going to do bushcraft with this thing. But you will open things. Use the tip as an awl, and do precision cuts on paper (which I do a lot in my art). Good at spliting wires too.
    One thing that the video also mentions it does look aggressive when you pull it out to do a task.
    I really,really like the fine tip and it is useful and unique and helps with a lot of precison tasks.
    I was considering the 391BK but it is a bit big for an urban environment. I still was going to get it. It did raise in price so it is over $200 now. I can't justify >200 for D2 steel.

    Ever since I saw Talon Sei's review I've wanted this knife. It's a folding pig sticker or a gent carry folding prison shank 😂. Very cool

  • @thomaslanders6244
    @thomaslanders6244 4 года назад

    Most of my knives are light for size, narrow, good blade/handle ratio for ease of carry. I don’t do heavy cutting in the city and don’t think of a knife for self defense. But, I like spear point blades, aluminum etc. I’m not into BM’s anymore but this and the M4 Freek had my interest. You hit the nail on the head. The knife isn’t for everyone, there’s better EDC’s but it’s made very well and carries well for a 3.9” blade.

    I hadn’t had a Benchmade since I left the Army. I recently purchased the “Fact” and I must say that I’m impressed with this knife and wonder why I took so long to replace my old blade.

  • @Echowhiskeyone
    @Echowhiskeyone 4 года назад

    Looks like an updated, streamlined Benchmade 875 from years ago. That was my carry knife for a while. Now sits in the ready drawer and gets out every so often.

  • @sigsauersaysso
    @sigsauersaysso 2 года назад +1

    I love these knives for self defense and to protect my gun if someone tries to grab it. It’ll go straight in them if need be. Give it a twist.

    This is like the only knife I have that's like a gentleman folder tactical knife it's a lot of duty tactical knife I love it I never even considered it until I walked into House Of Blades in Fort Worth and handled it in person and I fell in love with it!

  • @gavinmiller690
    @gavinmiller690 4 года назад

    Looking at this with black blade as have the SOCP Benchmade folder which handle is a little too long to close. The FACT is a little shorter so shouldn't have that problem and also has benefit of thumb stud where SOCP has a disc which isn't as easy to open.

    • @abc456f
      @abc456f 4 года назад

      I have both and had to play around with the clip position on the SOCP. Ended up using the longer clip, blade up to give me the best access to the axis lock. Because of the length of the handle I just use the clip side of the axis lock to close it. But I agree, the fact is a lot easier to manipulate. Both came perfectly centered, zero blade play, and the action on both has been smoothing out the longer I've had them.

  • @persistenthustle

    Love mine. Only problem is you need to be careful opening the knife as your thumb may get bitten when the blade rotates into position.

    How does it compare to the 940?

  • @mindspinn311
    @mindspinn311 3 года назад +1

    I’m torn between buying this version and the new full auto 4170BK. But the manual has a certain appeal and it’s half the price of the auto. It’s BM’s modern interpretation of an Italian stiletto knife and I think it’s almost completely overlooked in their line. Highly underrated. I love most of the axis lock models and I really should have bought one of these years ago.

    • @tombeyer375
      @tombeyer375 2 года назад

      Got the auto version about 1 1/2 years ago. Yeah, it's a bit pricey, but man, it'll make you fidget a bunch. One very smooth pig sticker!

  • @shawnlavigne9069
    @shawnlavigne9069 4 года назад

    I considered the fact as I love spearpoints, but instead got a 391 socp which I absolutely love. The fact is just a little skinny for my tastes. The quality control on my 391 is excellent, perhaps benchmade has upped their game.

    @cirilogomez1038 3 года назад

    I’m just finding out about this knife. I know it says tactical, I think it would be awesome for food. Who doesn’t want to carry one of these in their lunch box and have it on hand for cutting into a left over steak while on the job.

  • @klaassiersma4892
    @klaassiersma4892 4 года назад

    I realy like this one, i have got the shotshow edition from 2018? It has gray twill g10 scales and a gun metal gray dlc coating, you can get them razor sharp whitout getting a to idiot bevel.
    One thing to note, they have different omega springs that i suspect dont break easy ( mine haven't)

    I managed to handle one in a store the first time they came out. Kicking myself for not getting that first production run and adding to 3 other first production models I already have .
    What I always remember is that that long blade just flies out of the handle with a flick of the thumbstud which is so well placed. Very fun to deploy.

    I cry a little everytime I see a knife like this, I could buy it where I live, but it'd just collect dust as I wouldn't be allowed to carry it. Knife laws are a joke man, but those are the last of my concerns when it comes to the authoritarian rule here.

  • @tunguskalumberjack9987
    @tunguskalumberjack9987 4 года назад

    I’m not positive, but I thought that the color referred to the quality of the knife- like Black was their really high-end stuff, and Blue, while still really good, was a little less in quality, and so wasn’t as expensive.

    • @thomaslanders6244
      @thomaslanders6244 4 года назад

      No. Blue is EDC type knives, Black is tactical, Gold is high end material on the knife
