Benchmade makes great knives. the sharpen so well to get razor sharp blades over and over. My next one is going to be the AXIS.




Any idea what the angle of the edge is? I have two that need to be sharpened but I've never been able to figure out the angle and don't wanna mess them up.

Y'all SUCK!

I need to stop looking at the OB. It cost me too much.

A. The key is to maintain the edge angles on the blade. Our knife blades leave the factory with a 30-35 degree inclusive angle.

Another victim here. Between ARs, coolers, and knives this board has cost me a lot of money in the past year.

If you ever want to look at EDC and see a ton of options:

https://www.reddit.com/r/EDC/

Gander Mountain currently has the 940 for $199 and is running a $20 dollar off $100 purchase.

But lord knows this board thinks GM is always over priced, despite beating even the Amazon price.

They also carry like 40 other Benchmade knives.

So Gander Mountain has it for $199, and Amazon has it for $182. How is GM beating Amazon again?

If you are refering to the $20 coupon, Amazon has coupons too - buy and then use a giftcard to purchase it, and the cost is down to $177.

Oh, and the knife is backordered at BM, so won't get it for a few weeks (despite GM carrying "like 40 other Benchmade knives)".

GM has it in stock...like now. They don't wait for Benchmade to fulfill each order, they order large amounts and distribute them. That's the basics of retail. In fact every store within 100 miles has it in store for immediate pickup.

When I do a store search, shows it in stock.

If that is wrong then I am mistaken, but working with the information available.

I'm thinking the OB needs to bring their EDC's and favorite other folders to a tailgate during football season. Spouses welcome. We'd all get to brag a bit and our spouses would have a better shopping list of stuff we'd actually want for Christmas and special occasions.
Ammo! We always want need ammo.
