Sorry about the packaging. Although that it rare, I'll have a talk with my team to make sure that future ones go out better protected. I am glad you like it. I recommend beating it up haha. We designed it to be a tank and it is really easy to sharpen. That lock will wear in and be a little smoother here in a few weeks. Cheers my friend.
Most axis locks are a bit stiff out of the box but after a few months but they smooth out once all the surfaces marry through friction. I popped one of the scales off mine to look at the omega springs and they're pretty beefy little springs as well.
I picked one up as a facilities guy....scraping seals n shit doesn't require a 2nd hand but a sharp blade is must. I look forward to getting my south paw blade!😊
I just wonder how useful the folding action is. There's many manufacturers that have this blades style with a fixed handle. Morakniv, garret wade, and even more available on Amazon. I understand wanting to support creators but maybe I'm just not enough of a knife guy.
Maybe it has sold out as their link doesn't work. The only one that works is the bundle with the t-shirt. I'm not a knife person. But it looks to me that it's trying to be a knife and a chisel. But does it do either of those well? Looking forward to your review.
@@coolbugfacts1234so unbelievably incorrect I assume is sarcasm. But more importantly this is a straight rip off. He initially tried to say it was some new invention, it’s Chinese, and nothing even remotely new
@@stoff6969 ripoff of what? and what did i say that was incorrect? benchmades are indeed expensive and trump gave a trillion dollars to the rich through PPP loans, expanding the monetary supply and jacking up inflation
I am a big knife dude and have also been into woodworking for quite a few years now and thoroughly enjoy both JKM and Bourbon Moth , however this knife is a complete ripoff for the price and what materials it is. Not even close to being something that is worth purchasing for that price point.
Any indication in the packaging about where it is manufactured? Sent a couple of requests for that information to KM and BM but never heard back. My guess is not the US...😢
Love mine! Got it Friday
Can’t wait for mine to show up seems like a bad ass knife
Just got mine. Love it.

It definitely has, it’s a great blade! Any chance of getting an affiliate link for it? 😉
Wow you got yours already? My label has been created….. lol
If your not sure about the style of the blade Get a Mora Chisel Knife and try it out
I’ll have to check it out

It’s pretty rad

I love it as a pocket knife and I can throw it in a pouch without worry of it getting cut up or the chisel dulled.
this is potentially a one time product so I'm thinking QC is going to be a bit lacking but I'm stoked to put mine to work
Heard there have been some qc issues...any updates on your experience?!
Im waiting on mine on order 2 hoping i dont get a turd
@@charlesschmuckatelli7888can’t imagine Jason wouldn’t make it right on any QC issue…
I love mine so far
@@Everyday_Craftsman I'm still waiting on mine :(
Did you get an email when it shipped
I think so
Hultifors makes a fixed blade chisel knife you could have bought for 13 dollars. That bourbon blade is way overpriced for just using 14c28n steel
I do like the convenience of the folding chisel. Don’t know much about steels but it sure seems well built.
Maybe it has sold out as their link doesn't work.
The only one that works is the bundle with the t-shirt.

So far so good, it’s big but very well made.
Overpriced and not made in USA.

For riz
Got mine a month ago, made in China, traded it for a coupon for a made in MERICA Benchmade!
It’s made in China ?,!?!?
Benchmade will probably be my next purchase for edc as the chisel is pretty heavy although that makes it great for work days
Would be a more informative review if you did more than unbox it. Some testing would be nice
Im definitely planning on making that video soon
$160 is wild, it being sold it is even more wild
Have you been outside? Everything is crazy expensive
$160 is what the cheapest benchmade folders cost, everything is expensive now because of Trump's PPP loans and stimulus checks
It’s definitely a premium product

It is expensive but it feels well made
Crying about packaging 😂
It did make me tear up a little 🥹

I’m not sure, I think I chucked the box but I’ll look around
