Blade Review: The Very Best Of Benchmade

In Benchmade's thirty-plus years on the market, they have produced some of the world's best knives and in this review we will be choosing Benchmade's Top 7 Knives.

SUMMARY

THE INFIDEL

The Benchmade Infidel is one of the best-known OTF (Out-The-Front) knives on the planet, and arguably one of the best ever. The Infidel is a dual action OTF knife meaning the switch pushes it out as well as pulls it in. In addition to the incredibly stable, fast action and the rugged, pure tactical nature of the knife, the Infidel has a cool factor that is hard to describe without physically experiencing it.

THE GRIPTILIAN

One of the most popular Benchmade knives in production and one of the cornerstone of Benchmade lineups is the beloved Griptilian. It's injection-molded handle that is nearly impossible to drop and gives the knife its name. Ambidextrous opening and the ability to swap carry sides without incident gives the Griptilian the ability to work for anyone with hands. The Griptilian incorporates G10 grips. Upgraded blade steel improves edge performance and the layered gray and blue G10 enhance strength. And, of course, integral grip texture offers the traction that is quintessential to the Grip family.

Overall, it is a traditional knife combined with modern technology that pushes the preconceived notions of what a hunting knife should be.

Right off the bat, it is a practical EDC knife with a 3.6” blade but only weighing 3.70 ounces. The dual durometer handles handles afford strength, comfort and positive grip to this versatile knife. The outer edge (black) is a stiffer Versaflex material to create a strong backbone. The inner grey portion is softer Grivory material providing a comfortable grip without sacrificing stability.
