    I have the Benchmade Mediator and it is an incredible, snappy, all-round great knife. I’ve carried it every day for the last several months. Bought it just before the pandemic and it’s been my companion throughout this weird, weird time. Buy one - you won’t be disappointed!

It comes down to whether the police would agree that carrying with a pocket clip is concealed or not, and that’s a debate I’m not interested in having just to carry an auto. Yeah most officers wouldn’t care or notice but it’s not worth it to me. I have a auto just don’t carry it.

    Do you not realize that the lock can also be used when the blade is in the open position? I've always thought that was more of the reason for one. That way is you are using the knife for hard use you can actuate the extra lock so even if you accidentally press the firing button it won't fold up on your hand. It's not just for making sure it won't fire in your pocket.

    They all seem like wonderful knives. If I had to pick one and I had the money, I don’t know how much that money is. I would pick the broker Osborne 9500. I do have a Kalashnikov which I have just purchased from your knife sale. Very snappy indeed.. However I think I would like just a little bit shorter of a blade. I also purchased the study for my son. However being that short of a pocket clip makes it feel like it wants to rip your pants pocket right off of your leg trying to put it on. Keep up the great videos.

    This is why I hate UK law they've made automatic or spring loaded knives illegal aswell as the flick knives it has to be a non locking , foldable and have a blade of up to 3 inches and if caught with one that's not foldable, manual or has a bigger blade such as chefs knives you need to have a very valid reason such as going to and from college or work and if you don't there's literally only two consequences it will either simply just be taken off you or it can have you sent to jail for a minimum sentence of 12 years along with a £/$5000 fine but the fact automatic and spring loaded is a lot easier than it being manual as a manual sometimes takes forever to have it open if you need it to do something quick or if you can't get a grip on it to open it

    i switched from homemade cannabis coconut oil to homemade cannabis tincture, and my stomach feels better. i was going to buy my first auto knife in celebration. but while weed is legal here in d.c. apparently its impossible to order automatic knives online here. amazon isnt showing ANY auto knives. that blows.

      Amazon is a wimpy company that won't sell autos. Order directly from blade HQ. I recommend the Protech knives. Excellent materials and build quality.

    I love kershaw launch serries, but they have no safety and I had to go to the hospital cause the launch 8 came open in my pocket and stabbed my leg. Wish they would put safety's on them before a lawsuit happens . Kinda like McDonald's coffee that time. But, great knife!

      @@devin2355 the x5 has to be locked after it is opened. I need it locked right away. Plus during combat that button can easily be bumped thus closing it when you need it most.

    @Billfish57 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I love the look and quality of Protech but they are not safe to carry in my pocket, I have several and I can't carry any of them because the button is not protected enough and I've had them open up in my front pocket without knowing it until I reached in to get some cash and ended up with a gash instead. Very dangerous indeed. So sad because I like them so much, but I knife that stabs me is a deal breaker.

    Have 3 Kalashnikov's, an AUS-8, a D2 and an S30v. All drop points. I've carried one of these every day for the last 3 years, and open them 30-50 times a day for everything from opening boxes to splitting CAT5 wire to slicing summer sausage. Love these knives, but they're cheap enough that losing one isn't the end of the world

    Do you carry any of the out the front stilettos or a Tijuana specials that look like a god father knife? I used to sell knives at gun shows and some of those spendy autos really ca get away from you. My EDC is a cheap Kershaw with an open assist that is still razor sharp and opens like the wind. $17 close out.

    I just bought my first auto - Pro-Tech TR-4 in CPM-D2. I love it. Now I understand what ppl mean with „That great Pro-Tech snappy action”. I think I’ll get more autos, but I’m sad, that so many of them don’t have the safety lock. I wouldn’t carry an auto without a safety lock. So it would have to be just a house knife. I’ll deffinitely check the Osborne 9400, Hogue (but this model is hard to get in Europe) and Boker Strike. When I’ll be more familliar with carrying/operating an auto, maybe I’ll get myself something like Magic Whiskers or a Launch

    I have the 9400. Bought it from you guys the day it came out. I reserved it like 3 times and just canceled each time thinking I didn't need it. Talking myself out of it. I wish I kept my first reserve. May have a first production. Anyway, I'm glad i have one of the first models of its introduction because, you know this will have a long storied history too. Wish i would have went with black like my 940 but, all my blade are black and I wanted to try something different. Kind of regret it because the 9400 bk is just beautiful. May attempt to stonewash it but, 3 of the screws already stripped and yeah, benchmade please use a tougher screw. Isn't my only benchmade to strip. I hope they put serrations on these. Don't know though considering they cancelled all 940 serrations. Long story short, this has replaced my 940 as my edc. Why? Because just how simple and clean it looks. The green aluminum are the best scales ever. Especially when they get scuffed up. The body only has two screws. The auto mechanism adds to the look. Its just smooth and simple.
    Fun fact: I bought the last 940 serrated black off of you bladehq. Cause once i bought it, the one from your site and amazon, which you were selling, said sold out. I think that's awesome. I couldn't find any before except the one I purchased. I have not been able to find any since. So, maybe i bought the last one on the internet that was being sold by a reputable dealer. Cool to think about.
