Tbh these benchmade knives look hella cool but they are kinda expensive so for the next 4 years when im a child and got no work they wont be able to get in my collection.

Remember. Doesnt matter what knife you carry. As long as you have one when you need it and its sharp

[@soundspire360]

Self defense knives can be dull. They do more damage that way.

[@stanleykowalsky]

@@soundspire360 so are you saying a knife that cuts worse works better? That doesn’t make sense. Sounds like an excuse to be lazy and not keep your knife sharp.

[@lapua9828]

​@@stanleykowalsky he's right in a way, but mostly wrong. A toothy edge rips rather than slices cleanly, which may or may not do more damage. I used to carry a fully serrated Spyderco native for self defense, it was always razor sharp but the serrations could easily penetrate even thick fabric without having to use a thrusting/stabbing motion

[@rbux1636]

​@@stanleykowalskythey work better at inflicting more damage is what they're saying...

[@stanleykowalsky]

@@rbux1636 the idea that a dull knife does “more damage” is patently false.

[@jonnytest55]

The Bailout is so nice and slim. The M4 steel holds an edge for a long time.

[@lukelayto8900]

Not for $300 dollars..lol

[@jerryflames2937]

​@lukelayto8900 fine me something of this same quality for less. you clearly don't know anything about real knifes.

[@napalmholiday9708]

I mean the benchmade super freek is the same maker, same blade steel, at a slightly lower price point

[@peterpemrich6962]

I liked both of your comments, I know nothing about knives.

[@jonnytest55]

@@napalmholiday9708 the Super Freak is a great knife. Just a lil chunky

[@jranek]

Axis locks are great, but my broken springs would disagree on them being bomb proof lol

[@paulmccarter908]

Came to say the same thing. However, the non-Benchmade springs I bought seem higher quality and thicker

[@bassassassinnn7459]

Don't use it as a fidget toy. It's a tool. If you only opened and closed it when you needed it, the springs would last a lot longer.

[@ryand.3858]

I have the ESEE 5 and it’s kind of a beast. Great brand.

[@TheOfficialFloridaMan]

I got a SOG tanto folding knife like 12 years ago that I still EDC, works great, sharp as ever, never once failed

[@michaelzamoraii2161]

And much cheaper. They make great fixed blades as well. They have one compared to the bail out and I think it's better. I don't own either but I'd get a SOG before an overpriced BM.

[@dakotakinnard]

The jungalas is a big knife I’ve had one for over 10 years and it hasn’t let me down yet

[@midtnfishing3109]

I have had the jungles for years and it’s the best machete style knife I’ve ever had 10/10 would recommend

[@rattlesnake2345]

A great knife that I absolutely love is the Schrader schf 37, you can cut a tree down with it, clear away brush,break rocks if you needed to and still shave after all that with it it's a beautiful knife I've had mine for years I've had it rusted over and sandblasted and I'd still trust it no matter what

[@FDE_Doom_Girl]

I wouldn't exactly call the axis lock bomb proof since one of the springs bailed on me and i wasn't misusing it and kept it pristine.

[@thomasmaloney843]

Mora Companion Spark is in each of my cars and in the house. cheap enough to buy for multiple locations and it still has a lot of capabilities.

[@zachg6456]

I found a beat up bailout on my deployment and it’s amazing how much knife fits in a low profile. The edge retention is great as well.

[@charliebaker1427]

Love the bailout especially modded

[@JC_1095]

What mods did you do?

[@bigrob4786]

I have the bailout knife by benchmade. It is my favorite knife ive ever owned and i keep it on me at all times.

[@georgex7442]

Is that the one in the video?

[@DrinkyDrank]

I love my bailout, other than the fact that it came from the manufacturer with a giant burr on the edge. Benchmade isn’t what it used to be

[@circlecitybourbon]

I like the Benchmade !

[@mpmassacre91]

The bailout priced itself out of many peoples pockets.

[@djprogramer973]

Seriously $200+ for a pocketknife XD The first one makes sense: solid fixed blade, sized for multiple purposes, I want it ... but a pocket knife, nope

[@JoyofBooking]

Quit bitching and buy a cheap garbage knife

[@longshanks5531]

You can get the Ontario RTAK 2 as well

[@leog9524]

Been carrying a bailout for 3 years now love it recommend it to everyone

[@Pvci419]

Bombproof axis lock until one of the springs shits the bed 😂

[@Jeanmat]

Knife tip: if you only have one spring, it becomes a flipper ;)

[@user-yz1uv1my8d]

Yes life is good y'all love these

[@mulepowerforge]

Love the first two. Simple and capable. I’ve actually been thinking of a design similar to the first one to make for large bush knives.

[@Suddsy11037]

I prefer my medieval antennae quillon dagger thank you very much

[@jordanjordanize]

M16-14ZLEK is a great knife and I would have it on my list above the Benchmade. Partial serrations, liner lock with safety, (very capable) strap cutter and glass breaker. Strap cutter forming a guard. AUS8 Steel so it could be a bit better but still holds an edge well and mine has never had any issues.

[@PREPFORIT]

Very good choices.

[@RRiner]

Any of them Rated for Skull entry from various angles?

[@lancethrustworthy]

Yes, I'd like all three designs, thank you.

Love love freakin love my bailout!! As long as I don’t lose the son of a gun, I believe this could go down as the best purchase ever lol.. when we bought it, my boy and I gave it a name “Fredrico”.. I told him one day this will be yours and the look he gave me straight up, made me feel like I could fight a bear.. I know it’s not exactly an heirloom piece, but I freaking love my bailout

[@ZombieHunter37]

I like my SOG Trident Elite w/tanto blade.

[@GameGamerGame]

Yeah I’ve been having this “emergency situation” quite frequently looking for something that will be great for ohh I don’t know 🤷‍♀️ a butcher some of these might work, thanks for the suggestions!!!

[@GabrielFelix-zl4sq]

CKRT M16-14ZLEK is my go to. It has a tanto edge, the serrated part, seatbelt cutter, tungsten carbide tip… I don’t go into the woods a lot, so it’s great in the city if you get in a car crash or something. That’s my entire EDC in one knife

[@joehopper3720]

Benchmade triage auto is great. Seemed the more appropriate alternative for this short. Only cons are price and heft, neither of which was a deal breaker for me. Haven't utilized customer service yet but you all will receive a report when I do.

There are some exclusive M4 Bugouts, or you can always get a Bailout and reprofile it.

[@davidhalbleib5040]

@@AMBOSHER I like the aluminum scales on the Bailout it just feels tougher than the Bugouts although they do have the titanium version. I have heard of some people reprofiling the blade. I think that might be the way to go.

I’d sooner the spyderco rescue 3 knife than the benchmade.

[@ernest9606]

Esse the best

[@GriffXJ]

I have a Bailout, but honestly, I'm not a huge fan. The blade centering is way off and almost touching on one side, the lock can be stiff, and if flipped open the lock will sometimes get stuck and I have to use 2 hands and the edge of a table to get the lock to slide back so I can fold it. Seriously disappointed for how much I paid for it, even sent it back and it came back only marginally better, centering still off and the lock still gets stuck. I love my Spyderco PM2 so much more than my Bailout.

[@UltraMagaFan]

If the Bailout was made in China I’d expect that. But it’s not. Benchmade knives are made in America. That’s super disappointing.

[@wieser98]

i recently bought an Osborne 940-2 and i got lucky i guess. centered blade, axis lock working as intended, sharp out of the box, its a great knife (really no other option for me than to order it) im from austria

[@Joezinho187]

I sent it back but it never came back😹

[@GriffXJ]

@@wieser98 I've seen other knives from Benchmade that were fine, the Bailout was just a huge fail across the board from what I'm gathering

how is the Axis lock bong proof??

[@tacticalsweater5119]

Bailout vs code 4.

[@ggmanatee]

Owned both, sold my bailout. Nothing really wrong with the bailout but it's a niche knife. Code 4 is rugged as hell but the scales are super thin and the aluminum can be slick.

[@albsureinc23]

Definitely the Code 4

[@St.Gabriel21]

I have two cold steel magnum tanto xii. One is San Mai. one is 3V. The San Mai has had the best edge retention I have used. While the 3V has had a fold is the edge and starts to rust and I put them both through the same abuse. 3V is not better. Though either one is a pain to sharpen.

I’d go cheap instead, since the first two are meant to take abuse - I don’t want to have to be afraid of damaging my blades. Cheap hardware store machete and morakniv robust. Then a quick deploy pocket knife for edc, and that one I can justify spending some hard earned cash on.
