NEW Benchmade Knives | Shot Show 2023

o yes they have and love Benchmade but i never have cash to get one 75 to 125 at most for any knife that i can buy just relate to me. maybe 2024 one day save up 300 to 400

[@ferrisbueller9991]

IK. Bought my first BM couple months ago for 80 bucks, new, model Azeria. Can’t find them on ebay anymore for such a price. Meanwhile Spyderco is asking 200 bucks for really innovative designs like the Yojumbo. All I see here is BM's old classics but revamped and repriced. Im mean beautiful blades but was looking forward to fresh ideas. Remember the Morpho bali? How many Bugout versions do we really require if we are already able to customize our own? I mean for real collectors I get it.

[@etherealicer]

That is MSRP, it should be cheaper at the retailer. Also, inflation happened. I'm more bothered with the hipster talk... "inspired by the sunset"... please

BladeHQ just published the prices $180, still a lot.

@@etherealicer both fair points. I knew the price would go down once on the dealers website. But 180 is still noticeably more than what it was just a couple of years ago (I wanna say around 150 on bladehq).

Benchmade prices are crazy these days. Budget knives are getting so good that I am going to pass on these.

[@franticflintstone7999]

Despite what most knife reviewers on KZbin claim, there's nothing wrong with a lot of the budget steels. Most of the time (unless it's a hard use knife) you just need to quickly hone the edge with a strop, and when you do have to sharpen, it's really easy.

[@WoodsmanHobo777]

Budget knives are the only way these days, they've always had a special appeal to me more so than these over priced knives because of their name. These knife company's worked so hard for years to build their name and take care of their customers and then they start price gouging. These knife company's put made in USA and put their name on it and raise the price three to four times what it should cost. It's greed at this point. No thanks

it doesn't even cost that much to make, someone did a video once detailing production costs for Benchmade covering the Bugout and Osborn for example and it's ridiculous how much they're price gouging their own customers.... it also doesn't help that their quality control has been subpar in recent years so you're paying more for a knife that's quality might not be what it should be

That price on the narrows is beyond insulting. The new bar lock from Tactile has magnacut with 64 HRC, contoured titanium scales with micro milling, and was in collaboration with Richard Rogers for literally $180 cheaper; and to boot they are a micro company compared to the enormous production capabilities of Benchmade. And another thing, BM revealed that damn Immunity/Immunity AUTO knife back in February at Shot Show last year; and have been in the "coming soon" section at every major dealer for the last 12 months and counting. Then they say it's going to be a 2023 release in September? Their poor insight from community response is astonishing to say the least.

A backup to a rifle…. So a pistol ?

[@danw9865]

Here's a baby sized toy-like otf for...wait for it...$360?!!🤣🤣🤣 Benchmade is ridiculous. If you pay these peices you deserve everything you don't get.

[@ergezinger]

I like the new OD Green Raghorn. I have had quite enough of the orange in the Hunt Knives.

[@scummzz4696]

prices are jokes

[@LordKinjin]

I have a few Benchmade knives. Their quality isn't even close to CR, but apparently they cost more now. Crazy.

[@ironmikehallowween]

Very cool knives. I guess there is a cost for all of these super steals and materials. Prices are in the clouds.

[@holdernewtshesrearin5471]

It all goes into the corporate officers pockets, not in manufacture. It's a 300% markup now thanks to the hoard of $200 to $400+ Chinese knives. Benchmades HAVE to be more expensive than a Chinese knife.

[@RaviSingh-ph2uw]

BHQ I like your content and I’m sure you feel that you have to cover some Benchmades but you should’ve known you get some hate when you started posting Bugout prices no matter what they do to try and justify the price. All Benchmade is doing is pushing is further and further towards brands like Spyderco and Kizer for mid range knives and making us reconsider budget knives like Civivi.

[@jerrymuns]

That OTF is really cool. It’s one of the only knives out there like this that has a reasonably attractive handle. It actually looks like a knife handle. Great job!!!

[@jacobpetersen5662]

Fantastic new knives. The hunting series especially.

[@Pop_Gordo]

I’ve been looking forward to the Immunity since SHOT Show 2022. Production delays pushing it back over 18 months from its debut and the MSRP is $325? The M4 Bailout is more steel, less money, and available now.

[@andresgamba1478]

Yeah it felt like everyone just forgot about the immunity, which was a shame because I’ve been looking forward to it since early last year

[@zacharilowe]

Woof. Those new colors are gross... and have a $200 price?! Double yhammy. And I'm a HUGE fan of the bugout. Been carrying one daily for years. It's sad that they have almost doubled in price since I got mine.

[@artisanwalkertapleyco]

Really funny prank video guys! The prices were HILARIOUS!!! Where’s the real video tho?

[@artisanwalkertapleyco]

Does Benchmade know that they’re entering Chris Reeve, Medford, Hinderer, microtech price territory, but offering materials that are EASILY found in the Civivi, Kizer, and MAYBE WE Knife Co. territory??? What a JOKE

[@RaviSingh-ph2uw]

This was a long video considering all that was said os the Bugout now comes in lots of new colors by the way it’s 200 dollars and up. The fact that the Bugout prices were announced but there was a reluctance to offer other prices tells us a lot. if I’m gonna spend money with Bench made it’s going to be on something like the OM, CLA or Claymore.

[@wpymes]

I loved the Narrow...and the rest of them!

[@trevorrutland2879]

Honestly when she said 500 dollars for the naros or whatever I dry heaved lol

[@kassenz]

$580 lol

[@Halfmoon67]

I kinda miss those days when a full size griptilian 154cm was selling for 80 bucks. I still have mine from 2008 and it’s going strong. Yeah I know, cost of material, inflation and all that… :)
