THE TOP 5 BENCHMADE FOLDERS OF 2024

[@BFVgnr]

I'm still a 940 fan. Also good to see that Benchmade is doing premium steel for the Taggedout upgrades and using S45vn while keeping the budget model with 154cm.

[@TopDog8762]

Love the knife at 5:20. The last one is a classic and so cool in those materials. I really don't understand why Knife Tubers no longer leave a trace of the names of knives in their videos.Nothing in the notes etc. I am guessing it has something to do with KZbin hunting them down and ripping their accounts apart? Anyway most knife tubers are doing this now. So I will go with the flow. All five of the knives in the video whose names will not be mentioned were interesting choices.

[@zachstuff]

I can definitely add links to the knives. I do not run affiliate links like a lot of the knife channels. Which is why no direct links. But I will go back and add them for reference and ease of shopping!

[@hccif]

Good picks! Only one I have now is the mini Adira and I agree its a great EDC that can get wet. I do plan on picking up the mini Taggedout in CF and Magnacut and maybe a Seasonal Bugout later on

[@jeffcon123]

I love Benchmade… my favs are the mini bugout, mini griptilian and the 945 all of mine are completely customized.. they are the knives I use the most.

[@zachstuff]

Solid knives in your carry rotation!

[@ADAMGILBRT82]

Looking forward to getting the mini tagged out just waiting for it to arrive for sale in Australia

[@zachstuff]

Oh nice!! Did they get it in stock!

[@daver6564]

One of my favorite Benchmades never gets any love, the mini presidio.

[@erictalkington5674]

Those are tight. I just bought a full size Presidio 2 and I absolutely love it! It's an overbuilt heavy duty knife. I want the mini now!

[@zachstuff]

The mini presidio is such a solid EDC! Thanks Dave for checking these out!

[@zachstuff]

You know how awesome the full size is, so you will love the mini!!

[@erictalkington5674]

Dude, the Adira looks like a modernized water version of the Griptillian. The blade is almost identical. I want a full size for sure! Also, that new 940 is just sexy. I can't tell if the back is closed like the original. I like my Osbornes and Griptillians with closed backs.

[@zachstuff]

Agreed Eric! The new 940 has the open back design with barrel spacers. The Adira’s are a nice addition for Benchmade!

[@Didier090765]

First ones I thought of were the 3 Seven Ten versions though I haven't bought them, other priorities 😑. Thanks for sharing Zach!

[@zachstuff]

Glad you like them!

[@Salamando3D]

The new 940 and 710 are 🤌💋 Absolute 🔥 Good list brother! 😎👊

[@vikingveum6875]

Love the number 1 8:36

[@LonnieHutchinson90]

All amazing knives!

[@zachstuff]

Thank you!

[@napsterninja]

I would always like to add more Benchmade's. Sadly I slowed a bit down. I did buy a bunch of scales that I have not swapped yet. Top of my 2024 list, is the new 710. Eventually... 😅 Great video.👍

[@Marco_Ye]

Nice list. Thanks Zach.

[@zachstuff]

Glad you liked it!

[@rorycalhoun8011]

Yep, I need your first one and I picked up the Benchmade - Mini Adira… right when it came out on vacation and I just love it!!!

[@PocketRazors]

710, Adira, 940, Mini Tagged Out, Mini Auto Adamas would be my 5 so far this year ✌️🤙

[@zachstuff]

A great list of new Benchmade knives!

Still loving the 710.

[@drinkwater1915]

Seven Ten, PSK, Adira, Osborne, Tag.

[@Papershields001]

Burnt Copper 9400, Richlite Mini Barrage, full sized Fixed Adamas, Crooked River. Then I go waste more of my money on microtechs, I do love the cipher 2

[@mikejurnak0324]

Nice 5 that 940 is on my main list. ✌🏻

[@BolsteredBlades]

I really like your #1 pick! I'm usually not an orange type, but that one is hot!! Thanks Zach!

[@zachstuff]

The orange has been growing on me and agree with you it’s a hot one!!

[@Sleepy_spartan717]

I love the shape of the tagged out and the 710. Aside from that, the anthem and 940 at the only two I really feel are worth a damn. Especially when there are close to half a dozen other companies doing the cross bar much better. In AM starting to fall for the mini adira though. $230 is a really decent price for them given how they are inflating almost everything I’m curious if they are still running their magnacut stupid low though

[@twistedsis76]

Very cool knives

[@zachstuff]

Thanks for checking them out!

[@kathleensmith370]

I have never handled a benchmade- but I would like to someday. Im especially interested in the water series

[@zachstuff]

Oooh we need to change that! You would enjoy the water class knives!!

[@kathleensmith370]

@@zachstuff yes I would very much

[@Knivesarelife]

Full size Benchmade Adira my baby.

[@zachstuff]

Super Groovy! A great one!

[@BennyOcean]

I have this 940 and got it partially on Zack's recommendation. My only small gripe is the factory edge is not really amazing. Does anyone have any recommendations on how to get an ideal edge on it? I've seen another reviewer recommend pulling the edge back to closer to 15 degrees to make it slicier. I guess I could send it in to BM for lifesharp service. If anyone has tips on how to get a perfect edge on this I'd appreciate it, thanks.

[@zachstuff]

The 940 is a little thicker behind the edge than most and they run around 20 degrees from the factory. You can always have someone grind it at a different angle for you. I just don’t want to see them out the same edge on it which you don’t 💯 percent enjoy. Lots of great sharpening people in our community. Maybe see if there is a local sharpener near you to go over which angle you would want.

[@Gman1024]

Osbourne, tried and true I like it as well as all the others, haha.

[@zachstuff]

Hard to choose a favorite!!

[@jjonha707]

My 940 blade has a wobble in closed position is this normal or should I send it in?

[@zachstuff]

Sounds like it needs a Lifesharp Spa Day!! Definitely send it in.

[@elde667]

Huge Benchmade fan…..just can’t afford to buy the models I like anymore. 😢 Great choices…..thanks for the review, much appreciated!

[@edcgearpocketknife]

I would like to see someone dye the scales on the adera just make it different make your own.

[@zachstuff]

Great idea! I’ll make it happen!

[@zachstuff]

They are a perfect EDC! Might see more on future GAW’s!

[@barrybueler3356]

I have 12 benchmades and if I had to go with just one it would be my Triage without the flat tip. Great blade great tool. The freek would be a definite top 10 as well. For a Benchmade guy. U didn’t have either one of the knives I picked out that should definitely be in the top 10 I also like the grey griptilian with blue liners and hardware with a 20cv blade I could easily put the 3 on your list but this post is long enough but I’m disappointed in u Zach 👎🏻. 🤪
