Received one as a Christmas gift from a friend. Makes my CKRT feel like a Smith and Wesson knife.

Benchmade it is from now on.

It starts with one benchmade or spyderco, before you know it you have a craftsman tool chest full of expensive knives. Ask me how I know!

I have a fair share of both. My opinion is that Kershaw is one of the best "bang for the buck" knives that you can purchase. Overall I like my Benchmades better though. They both make great knives so...get both.

Dollar to dollar, I think benchmade is a little better.  I have no hard data to back that up with besides owning both.  Benchmade's cheap stuff is a lot better than kershaw's though.

Why did I click on this thread? I have bought in the last week Benchmade minigriptilion, Spyderco Paramilitary 2, 2 Kershaw Cyro and 2 Kershaw Cyro 2. I hate this place.

Benchmade knives kick ass. I have a whole bunch of them. I love the Infidel.

Santa brought me a Benchmade 8600BK Auto Bedlam. Great knife.

In the photo below, my new BM is at the top, next is a Robbie Dalton Gatekeeper Auto, and finally a BM Griptilian.

The gap?  Oh, that was where my Spyderco Endura with foliage green G10 handles was before the defective blade lock failed. Paramilitary 2 is on the way.

Nice Benchmade !!! That's a good friend.



CRKT knives are priced to high for the shit quality they are.They should be priced the same as the cheap knives you find at the 5 dollar table at gun shows.



As a matter of fact that's where CRKT started out ,As cheapo gun show knives.

I've got a 9000S (no safety) AFO, bead blasted serrated, which I think is the same as you have, in that pic at the bottom.

I've had mine for a good 20+ years.

The factory edge on this thing is SHARP. Already managed to nick myself practicing closing it with one hand.
