Benchmade Knives: 904 Mini Stryker

I purchased this knife a couple months ago and have carried it almost everyday since. I decided on the mini version because I find the blade length more practical for my needs than the full size Axis Stryker. Ithe is very similar in size to the Mini Griptilian. The Axis lock is the best mechanism on the market and there is only a minimal amount of blade play in the up-down and side-side directions. The blade steel takes and holds a very sharp edge and is easy to sharpen. The pocket clip has great retention and it rides very deep in the pocket. The shape and size of the handle fits great in my hand, size large gloves. The only slight negative I have is the G10 scales are very rough which provides excellent grip when in use but it will destroy your pants pocket where the clip is. Overall a great choice for EDC.
