Hey TW! Let's see your knives!

Anybody have any recommendations on a fixed blade from benchmade? They only have a couple and ive been considering the HK

 

I'm pretty sure the Benchmade HKs are not made in USA.

I bought a Nimravus for a friend awhile ago. Nice knife. Big blade made from 154cm at a pretty low cost. There is also a smaller version.
What style of fixed blade are you looking for?

 

Ew then no thanks, I perfer American made. China knives are well... China knives.

375 Adamas! thats the one im looking at! but how does the sheath go onto your belt? Or does it?

 

Never seen one, but looking here:

Looks like some kind of plastic clip or you can use the cord. There are cheaper ones on Ebay, but this particular listing has some nice pics
I prefer handles with scales myself tho.

 

Yeah, they call it Tungsten DLC (diamond like carbon) coating. I actually carry and use that 0200 pictured a lot, and use it at work. But it really doesn't show.
I love my ZTs. The only ones I didn't like was my 0400 cause it was a pain to sharpen but looked cool, and the newer 0700 cause it was just a little too plain.

 

What are scales? Sorry this is my first real nice knife purchase so im not really super knowledgable on the terms. I love the skeleton look but id have to use the paracord as the barebones grab gets kind of painful after awhile.

 

I think it was around $170, I got it from knivesshipfree...it really is a nice blade super sharp.

 

^^^ your sig makes my mouth water. I want to know what she's cooking

Just the handles. Like the micarta, wood, or even plastic handles. I like my knives with some thickness. Paracord wrapped is a little better, but still feels too thin for me. Unless its a neck knife, boot knife or throwing knife.

Moar pics please

 

im highly considering buying that Benchmade!!! Ugh if it was just a tad bit cheaper id buy it... 100 bucks and id be sold.

 

Either one is not gonna be cheap, The nimravus is made from premium 154cm, and the Adamas is made from D2 tool steel. The D2 should stay sharp longer, but best to use a diamond sharpener. They will wear out normal stones quick. S30V also. Benchmades have lifesharp anyway, so just send it back.
but keep watching ebay, sometimes you get lucky, or look for people taking offers.
If you search ebay and click completed listings, you can see what they sold for. Some sold for $100.

:edit:
this guy did a good job wrapping his handle

 

Thats exactly the one i want but i want to wrap it in red and black paracord.

 

If you haven't already look at the Ka-Bar Beckers, i have a BK-2 and its a beast of a knife, i just need to get some micarta scales for it.

 

I have a bk17 and it is awesome too, really tough good knives

 

I got the BK-11 with the Micarta Scales and added a IWB clip to the sheath and it's my daily carry.

 

There is a Benchmade Infidel on ebay if anybody is interested in an OTF auto! Probably will get report and be gone by tomorrow tho. The is about the 5th one I seen pop up on ebay. There are also a couple ZT 0777 knives as well. The ZT0777 should sell for around $800.
