Benchmade Knives: 550-S30V Griptilian - Sheepsfoot - CPM-S30V - AXIS Lock

Just arrived and this knife is everything I've heard. Thank ya Knivesshipfree!!

I recently purchase my third Griptilian, this one from Knivesshipfree as my first experience with them. First, knife came perfect, great price and got here faster than estimated date. All awesome and I’ll be back to KSF for more. On to the Griptilian: It was my first Benchmade back in the day. Carried it for a couple years and misplaced it. Bought another and then found the misplaced one a week later and gave it to my apprentice (great kid). Then, I lose my 2nd Griptilian and again I’m left with none. Decided to try a few more Benchmade knives, the Osborne, Claymore, Bailout (aluminum) and the Shootout -all fantastic knives in their own right. Some time passed and I just kept thinking about that damn Griptilian….. Finally got another replacement the other day from KSF and instantly became my favorite, again. I don’t know what it is, the Griptilian is a perfect EDC for me and I love carrying it. Thanks KSF!!! See ya soon :)

Everything about this knife is absolutely amazing only reason for 4* is the handle material. If they would offer a different handle material this knife would be A++

Love the blade shape and cutout in blade for flipping! Also the knife performs flawless as it should another perfectly crafted benchmade!
