Beautiful! Love awt scales. Looking to buy awt and rockscale geared backspacer for my para 2 and was wondering if they would all fit together nicely. Im guessing yes with your setup. 👍

I have the Maverick with the DLC accents. I like it okay, but mine needs help to close every time. Also, the thumb studs get easily caught in my pocket material, causing the blade to partially open when pulling it out. For that reason, I don’t carry it.

How hard is it to read the date being red in color?
@technicianiv1776Ай бұрын
It's pretty difficult. Under most indoor lighting conditions, it is almost a completely useless feature. It's a bit easier in sunlight, but even then it can be difficult. I'm definitely not catching it at a quick glance. IMO this is still the biggest drawback on this model. It's not a deal breaker for me, but I would understand if it was for others
@bon2198Ай бұрын
@@technicianiv1776 yeah, I love the 1052 but good luck finding that one anymore as that had all the right colors to see perfectly. I have the Ronda colored one which is a beaut as well and easy to read which is important to me to see the date without pulling out my phone.

I think I'll buy one now. Thanks for your candid review and impressions. They also have a non-stretch strap option. I may order both in 22mm, and stick with the stiffer strap since I want to counterbalance a heavier Hamilton. Thanks again.

I'm surprised you didn't go with applied weapons tech scales on that Ritter RSK. I've heard people say that the stock G10 scales are almost too grippy/sharp. Have you noticed any issues? Are you planning to replace the scales with AWT?
@technicianiv17764 ай бұрын
No plans on swapping those out, but the larger size knives don't get carried as much. I usually have one in my tool bag just in case, but it's rare that I need it. The G10 is fine for how I use it. If I did carry it daily in my pocket, then I might have a different opinion about it.

It’s the Sellita movement with a custom Glycine rotor, and the movement itself is derived (well, basically an authorised clone) from the ETA 2893.

Glad to find a channel that will be USA made only! So tired of all these cheap Chinese knives flooding the market, and youtube. I too, will admit for the price many of them are quality knives, but at some point enough is enough already. Also AWT scales for the win!! I have 6 sets already (bailout, bugout, mini bugout, deka, para 3, and manix 2) and I'm sure will be getting more, they are amazing.

CF Elite is called CF elite because it uses graphite (carbon...) fibers to reinforce the nylon, as opposed to the usual glass fibers. The difference between CF Elite and FRN is the same as the difference between carbon fiber and G10. Makes the name seem fairly reasonable, to me. I miss the days when Benchmade made designs that actually interest me. I carried a 940 in the military, so ill always have a soft spot for them but G10 and steel liners for nearly 3x what they charged for titanium less than 10 years ago would probably keep me away even if they made a design i liked. Thanks for showing your collection. These are always my favorite videos.
