I own this knife and as a knife combat instructor it has to be my favorite knife to use. Love it for sure

[@Chumgeyser]

This was a really well put together knife demo. More please!

[@LordThor]

Just ordered mine; it'll be here Saturday!

[@nhwnhw02]

I watched this and thought dang that is fairly awesome. Found one. It is big and heavy but carries like it isn't there. Can't imagine how. If is one of my favorite knives to carry.

[@s4iL_]

what a weird cooking show

[@Jaydies2049]

When you broke the knife was it the axis lock only that was engaged. Or the spine lock engaged as well?

[@tto129]

It's an amazing knife

[@Mountain.Man.1978]

Do you know what size spring it takes? I want mine snappier.

[@VicariousReality7]

Oh damn son, getting one of these One of the few good quality persian style knives i know of

[@xericxhallx]

How do you guys test balisongs? Thats a video I would like to see.

[@Kiba364]

I love my Bedlam (manual version), I call her Vera :)

[@colemelton1497]

Would this be a good edc and self defense knife

[@philliesblunt247]

Love the axis lock by far over any liner locks. I lost my first Benchmade knife a few months ago and every single day I add a new knife to the online shopping cart then take it out. Not sure about trying a new model or to purchase the same.

[@ijustlikemetalsoya5397]

Try something new They offer great peices but look for another on Facebook or forums

[@philliesblunt247]

got a pro tea, at a gun and knife show. its my new fave.

[@ThisGuyCJ]

I was looking for a new knife at the start of the new year to keep my sentimental valued AFO ii at home, after a couple of months I some how ended up with 5 new knives and started a rotation...

[@Khanclansith]

I can ear it now... "Hay where is the cord for this phone?"

[@dontevencurr453]

Dear benchmade, my bedlam, out of the box, has significant vertical blade play. Is it free for you to fix this?

[@trenthoopingarner3819]

what a beast

[@projecktchaos]

I want that blade!!!

[@wakeg40]

can you "flick" the auto bedlam open with just your wrist or do you have to "pull trigger"?

[@johnnymallorf5019]

Pull down axis lock and trigger is pulled. Might wanna get your hand out of the way of the blade because its an automatic knife dawg.

[@draco00]

Love my 8600, but I wish the spring on it is beefier.

[@x66]

I have the serrated version!

[@tokay101]

cool bracklet

[@Jaydies2049]

My fave thing about axis is having the ability to do it left or right hand.

[@bergknivesandsharpening8014]

Just got the 860sbk. Just commenting on what you said about the video would be too long if you included all of the testing... there are a lot of 30 minute and three part videos with a lot of views. You should try one and see.

[@brookspotter5756]

I want one

[@JDxBiUE]

I though these were discontinued?

[@mrbz900]

I guess when you run out of arm hair you can trim that awesome mustache! Great vid as always!!

[@draco00]

It's under the warranty so you can send it in. Benchmade has one of the best warranty and customer service in the industry.

[@ghostpirate09]

But that pocket clip kinda weak though my break when it stuck on some clothing

[@Patrick2345454]

Same. Complete waste on such a good knife.

[@AtilioEscobar]

That was awesome..I'm sold..but now the question is..partial serrated edge or straight plain edge?!? Suggestions?!?

[@Pivotman06]

+Atilio Escobar You can change it when you buy it.

[@convex7456]

Straight edge. A fully serated would be sick but sharpening annoying. Did u even get one

[@redbird963]

They already did a video with a balisong.

[@MyRealEstateDOJO]

Just order one.

[@zunedog31]

Blade looks like it slips off of material a lot.

[@schizm101]

OMG please shave your mustache on video PLZ!!!!!!!! i have been waiting forever for that!!

[@laucian2100]

You know some guy is wondering why his landline phone isn't working.

[@Nuh-zd5py]

You're making it look eazy

[@averysevenfold]

Actual quote is, "Nice! Your fruit killing skills are remarkable!" Just an FYI.

[@user-lb1fj5my7c]

блин хочу такой!!! у меня гриптилиан и рант!!!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@survivalstuff2]

wow that knife isnt even fair on how easy that cuts. you barely touched the nylon rope and the twine and it chopped. wow.

[@rDigital2A]

The ceiling tiles are hard to cut because they probably contain asbestos. I have worked in Asbestos abatement... and that looks like asbestos.

[@convex7456]

rDigital2A lol mmmm

[@Verkrustet]

The debris test is pretty redundant if you _clean the knife after you dirty it up._ So silly.

[@another5961]

I know right? Smh like you have time to do that in the field

[@Progulschik]

Нет слов, но и цену они загнули)

[@TheDyllyDog]

Cut some raw hide

[@joemamma4324]

JUST SEND ONE ON TO ME...I'LL TAKKE IT...THAT OR LOWER THE PRICE....

[@armyson55]

No its not

[@nqkoisii]

I want to test the girl she is nice

[@YuryMurashka]

Что за бред :(

[@MandrakeCigars]

I'm guessing Tracey does a lot of garbage picking around the office.

[@kylewood8327]

Great knife, but your sand tests are just plain worthless! You don’t dirty it up and knock all the sand back out before re-testing.
