Thanks for the video…now I have to order this one to go along with my small growing collection consisting of both the Griptilian 551BK and the mini version. 😎 I love the black blades the most. EDC folder collecting is now a new drug and I’m now addicted. 😌 I am sure I will be modifying the grips and liner on this as well. 😎
You can legally own an automatic in CA only in your home! However it's illegal for you to carry it outside your home unless the blade length is 2inches or less.
For my first ever EDC folders…I ordered both the mini and full size Griptians heavily modified with with carbon fiber scales on the 551BK…and Orange G10 on the mini.. This will probably be my next Benchmade. 😎
I handled this for the first time at a local knife store and I must say this knife lives up to the hype😍 I was amazed buy how strong the spring tension was for the automatic feature and the overall build quality and robustness. All I can do is dream about it for now 🥲
Nice review! I purchased this knife very recently. It's a great auto. The black blade and green handle make for a cool color combination.
Glad you like it. Thanks for watching.

What do think about the Benchmade Emerson 9700 auto?
I need one in left hand version.
They don’t make a mini version of this yet?
Not an automatic version, only manual.
Excellent Blade
👍
@@Gpknives do you think it will hold up long term ?
Is it less reliable because it's auto at the hinge point?
Are you asking about the strength of the pivot? I would say that the 9400 auto is at least as reliable, if not more, compared to the 940.
Is this legal in Pennsylvania?
Literally just bought one in PA today.
That 9400 is a good option before fakes of it start to show up all over the web.
It is always best to purchase direct from an authorized Benchmade dealer. Thanks for watching.
I'm trying to decide what I would like my first Benchmade Auto to be, the stimulus, CLA this lol & presidio 🤷🏼♂️
I think highly of the Presidio platform and burnt bronze with M4 is a tough combo to beat.
Why is the back spacer purple? It's look much better in gold
That is how Benchmade made the 940 so the 9400 gets the same color. Thanks for watching.
Are these legal in California? I’m pretty new to EDC knives
CA requires a sub 2-inch blade. 😿

Sharpest knife ever ever owned.

Fantastic knife. Ugliest color combo imaginable.

The bugout is just blasphemous to me every time I see it
