    It really is designed to be used for anything you need it to do. Beauty of a drop point or sheepsfoot, with a belly. Awesome video. I like to see how a knifes edge holds up after good use. Or how the knife itself holds up. I do not like grivory scales but, everyone swears by this knife. I have a Shootout, which is grivory and cruwear. You would think it's a toy by holding it. The Shootout takes abuse very well.

      Thank you, I appreciate you watching. I'm indifferent to grivory scales. For some reason they've kinda grown on me with the claymore. For this knife specifically. I'll have to check out The Shootout. Take care.

      I didn’t like the plastic scales at first but after having a Claymore my mind is completely changed. I’ve grown to love it! This is the best EDC knife ever made

    Have the Claynore but I carry my Shootout as an edc because of how light it is and the the functionality. Love Benchmade and Microtech knives. Have the Combat Troodan Hellhound Microtech knife is an absolute beast.

    Great review Drew! Benchmade is an awesome knife company. Man that knife just keeps cutting. Slicing that leather was nice. Wicked nice semi-auto! Great video Drew! 👍🏻💪🏻☘️🇺🇸

      Thank you John, 6 months from now I'll give a true review. It seems to be a very capable knife, I think it'll hold up. My first Benchmade. Figured it would be a good one, I almost went for the Adamas auto but figured the Claymore would be a better day to day carry. Take care my friend!

    Great review it’s good to see a knife in use. That I’m interested in. I care less about all these reviews. That talks about the weight, width or how long it is. I can find that out myself if I buy it. And I don’t care when they put other knives on the table to compare it with. I want to know how it holds up when it’s used for everyday tasks. Thank you for a great review.

Are you not responsible enough to weild any knife you are comfortable with holding? Why are you so easily to fall in line with things that take away from your self liberties?

    The blade play is typical of an auto. They have to be slightly loose for the mechanism to work efficiently

    I love this knife. I chopped about a quarter of my index finger with it yesterday. First knife I ever had that I inadvertently drew my own blood with. Thing is so sharp I barely felt it and it took a solid two seconds before blood began to flow. No stitches though. Extremely embarrassing lol

    How are you liking it so far brother 3 months in? I just purchased one and it's instantly my favorite Benchmade, hoping it holds up.

    • @MountaincraftOutdoors
      @MountaincraftOutdoors  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Very well made, it's holding up solid. I notice a big difference in the CPM D2 as compared to regular D2. I'm indifferent to grivory scales but really like them on this handle for some reason. Strong and light. I wouldn't hesitate, after having and using it a bit, to take it into a tough situation. I wouldn't hammer it through a cinder block wall but I don't feel I have to go easy on it either. Glad you got one brother, thanks for watching 🤙🏻

    Problem i have with this knife an i love the thing is, price. The Bailout has aluminum scales an an M4 blade for $235, i really wanted to buy this one but it was damn near same price as the Bailout with lesser material, your paying for the auto, in all honest opinion tho the grivory iam sure is tough as nails as well an the CPM- D2 is way better than regular D2 i suppose i just being a knife snob but facts are facts

    • @MountaincraftOutdoors
      @MountaincraftOutdoors  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I get that, all viable arguments. I guess I just really like the overall design a bunch. Because it's so light, it can kind of trick you into thinking it's cheaply made. Kind of threw me off at first. I like em big and durable ( my knives haha) but the claymore has grown on me big-time. Thanks for watching 🤙🏻

    I like Benchmade and I have a bunch of them this one I bought the Clone, I know that's kind of a cardinal sin but I just can't see paying $250 for a Grivory knife, although I do love it, if it was priced around 175 I would have already bought it, but it is cool and I appreciate you doing the test man this is great! I'm glad to see it really does hold up. Who knows, it may eat at me until I just can't stand it and I'll have to put one on layaway or something. It's lightweight when I'm taking the dog out at night in my sweatpants this is what I put in my pocket, cuz I like it's light strong fast and I can't hardly tell it's in my sweatpants! Nice review!
