Benchmade Osborne EDC Knife, MagnaCut Steel Blade (940BK-03) | Burnt Copper Aluminum handle, Reverse Tanto blade

Such a great folding knife with the Axis lock. I am a big fan of the burnt copper. For the money, it’s so worth it. Extremely sharp of course. Feels great in hand. The scales are not slippery. Has a grip to it. Looks amazing under real sun light. I see what all the hype is about. The style of blade is great. Great blade stock. The weight of the knife is bad at all for how strong it is. You don’t want a light knife. It’s a knife! Free sharping for life with a great warranty!!! The designer of this blade, Osborne knew his stuff. He made a great blade. Anyone who collects knives should have this blade. I want the carbon fiber or the G1 scale version with a different blade style. I had a gift card for Amazon. I would have purchased it from Benchmade or an unauthorized dealer. Where I live, I don’t have a whole lot of options.

Well built. Sharp. Nice color. Nice blade shape. Well aligned. Did have a small blemish they missed on the handle. Made me sad but not sad enough to exchange it. Didn’t want to go through the rerun process.

I’m not a huge fan of this color combo but the 940 is the gold standard in EDC knives. Light, useful, durable and dependable. American made quality and an unmatched warranty. This knife was made to be carried and used. Classy and discreet enough to go in the pocket of your slacks at the office, but tough enough to carry when you’re hiking or hunting. It might not be the best knife at any one thing, but it does everything well. More often than not This is The knife that’s in my pocket.

Benchmade knives are a scam. You can buy a better made knife for literally 1/6th the price (check out Kizer or Spyderco)and it's going to come with better customer support too. My experience with customer support was this: i sent in a knife that wobbled and wasn't sitting symmetrically when closed (this is how i received it FACTORY NEW) paid 10 dollars, sent in the knife and a month later they send back my knife without having done ANYTHING to address the issue. now the support is ignoring me and not returning messages, so i filed a consumer complaint with the DOJ in their state. I would never buy a benchmade knife again. i would suggest that no one ever buy a benchmade knife.

SKU: 940BK-03 This is even better than I thought it would be. Heard great things about this. Light weight so as a every day carry it's like wearing nothing. Those nice looking handles are smooth so unlike some of my grippy G10 handles on other knifes doesn't stick against certain clothes I wear as pulling out or putting in. Too soon to speak of reliability but if this more expensive version is like the other it shouldn't be a problem. And speaking of expensive. It’s alot. Biggest con for me. Reason for one less Star. But with this quality and premium steel (Magnacut) you have the backing of the company. With not only lifetime sharpening but a Lifetime warranty on the tool itself. As long as I get years of use out of this tool (I don't abuse my stuff) I will have no problem recommending this version.
