      I’m about to try 1st benchmade too and this is biggest contender. Don’t have any Spyderco which pm2 is high on list...but need to try the axis tbh. Have speed assist knife that’s great but want the drop close for quick close and fidget factor.

    I've had this knife for going on 1 year. The M4 blade is awesome, I used it to gut and skin 2 deer without having to sharpen it. Which is good because the M4 is great it is not exactly a field friendly steel. Love the reviews!

    I’ve been carrying the super freak for about a month and so far I love it. I added a deep carry pocket clip and lanyard and that’s it. It has taken over as my main daily carry blade usurping my Spyderco Yo Jimbo with aftermarket grip scales. So far I love it. Still razor sharp and have used it for everything from cutting up bluegills for catfish bait to opening boxes. No issues and it only took a day or so for the blade deployment to become butter smooth. No obvious wear on the blade finish yet.

    I've had a freek for 2 years now and daily carry it. I live 5 minutes from the Benchmade HQ and have had 3 of their knives now. This is definitely my favorite. I have large hands and prefer to have a larger, heavier knife that I can always feel in my pocket. The blade has held up very well even though I use it for things I definitely shouldn't sometimes. I would recommend it to anyone looking for an edc knife that is a little larger and will last forever. If that's not your speed Benchmade also has tons of other great products! #NotAnAdd

    Had mine for a few weeks too. I use it to cut open heavy paper bags, cardboard, pool liners etc. Just touch it up with a strop one in a while and it's still good. Takes a little bit to make it shave again but it isn't difficult.

    My favorite Folder of all time is the Spyderco Para Military 2 G-10 / Black Blade. It has been my EDC for almost 8 years and still going strong! Now for Fixed-Blade, my top pick is the ESEE-5/ Plain Edge/Black Blade...

    @dudders___1684 3 года назад

    Since you asked I have one of these, I picked it up from Cabela’s for around $200, I switched the pocket clip because I’m left handed and it’s easier, screws came out and went back in and it’s held and nothings come loose or anything, as far as what all it can take I haven’t put it through a lot mainly just basic stuff and I can say that the edge holds like crazy, I have watched videos on what it can take though and for a folder they can take a lot more than you’d expect and still be solid, it’s kinda mind blowing lol

  • @jamesbaker9788

    I got the OD Green Bugout back when it first came out and did not like the scales either and sent it back. I just got the Blade HQ exclusive Bugout with the Gray G10 and Black 20CV and I love it. I'm glad I waited. Currently looking at the Superfreek but I am waiting to get it when I can find a good deal on it.

  • @WhosRyan
    @WhosRyan 4 года назад +2

    I was hoping when you started this series that I would see this knife. I picked one up a few months ago and I absolutely love it. Little bigger than my Lightweight Para 3 but when it’s in my hand it just feels like it wants to go to work. So far the blade has held up and still looks brand new! I did however opt to switch out the pocket clip to a mini deep carry from Benchmade, which makes me love the knife even more. I’m hoping this finds its way into your pocket and we can maybe get another video of your overall thoughts after it’s seen some use!

    G-10 should come at least as standard on all of Benchmade's knives. Grivory is bullshit for the price point they're selling their knives. It sounds hollow and cheap when you flip the knife open and closed. Spyderco had the good sense to use G-10 even on their entry level Tenacious line. I do think Benchmade did a great job on the Freek though.

    So the ball-bearing lock on say, the Spyderco Manix 2 is similar to the axis lock is it? What's the difference in terms of operation? It looks like you can operate the axis lock by using one side/finger - is this correct? With the Manix 2 I need to pull the tab on both sides which is a pain is the asterisk.

I will trade it for a super freek, a mini freek carbon fiber model, or a shaman with plain edge. Reply here if anyone is interested.

    Most all production knives are made with Chinese cnc machines ,even the so called American made production clones , but the so called American knife companies do not pass on the savings like a loyal American knife CO. would ! When I see some loyalty from them I will think about being loyal to them !
    The bugout is like $12.00 , a fair price for a cheap rubber scaled knife ! The G10 scale bugout , the fix for the cheap crap rubber scales bugout is $30.00 or $40.00 a fair non geedy price !
    The steel lie hype ??? D2 is the best edge holding next is XHP then S35vn ! S30V is repackaged 440 not even as good edge holding as 440C or AUS 8 ! And whatever steel they use can only raise the price a few dollars not hundreds of dollars , Hype lies for collectors ,not users !
