Benchmade Mchenry and Williams Design Knife Review:

This tactical knife was reviewed by twenty customers, and they were happy to give it a 4.2 star average rating. Unfortunately, unlike other Benchmade knives that did not receive ratings below 3.0 stars, this model had three customers giving it relatively poor ratings.

One of the reviewers described this tactical knife as setting the industry standard for him. Although Benchmade was among the more expensive knives that might appear to be too much to pay for a knife, he explained that the price included many after-purchase services that the company offered for continued satisfaction. He then went on to describe this particular model: he liked the D2 steel that made up the blade of this knife, as he found that it could hold its edge well. Other reviewers commended it for fitting perfectly in the pocket and for having its blade hold a great edge over time. They also liked how trustworthy it was, with many of them having carried this knife with them everyday for many years.

One of the reviewers admitted that the steel on the blade could be found to be brittle, but he said that it was expected for D2-material knife, but that it was not usually intended for tasks that might cause chipping anyway. He still gave it a perfect 5.0-star rating. Meanwhile, one of the reviewers who were not too happy to give it ratings above 3.0-stars complained about receiving the wrong unit: instead of the D2-steel knife, he received one that said it was made of ATS-34. He personally had no problems with that type of steel, but he was not happy at the mix-up. Another reviewer who was disappointed complained about receiving a used knife instead of a brand-new one; of course, this means that the review was not about the quality of the knife but rather had to do with seller integrity. Other than that, there was one user who was disappointed with the knife itself, as he described it as being stiff to open and very dull. Of course, given how none of the other reviewers had this experience, this could possibly have been a defective unit or even a used unit.

From these comments, we would be very happy to recommend this tactical knife for you. Hopefully you would not have the poor experience that some of the reviewers did about receiving used items, but they seemed to be the exception rather than the norm, so it is not a cause for major concern.
