Benchmade McHenry Design OTF Auto Infidel Knife Review:

The more than ten customers who wrote their comments on this tactical knife gave it an average rating of 4.2 stars. Majority of them gave it a perfect 5.0-star rating, while a quarter of them gave it ratings below 3.0 stars.

One of the reviewers who loved this knife commended it for feeling completely solid. He shared that he had initially hesitated about spending the amount of money needed to get this knife, but after he did some research and got this particular tactical knife, he was definitely impressed. He mentioned that he had just sent his knife to Benchmade for his first sharpening, and he appreciated that sharpening was for free and his knife came back super sharp. Of course, the service was apparently free only for policemen and soldiers, as another buyer learned. Meanwhile, he also commended the grip for being solid, too, and said that he found it worth the price. Another reviewer commended the design of the knife for the one-handed opening that could be done even without the user’s looking at it. The button that did that was reportedly very well-designed; one-handed closing was also possible, without requiring the squeezing of a liner lock, which the user loved. He added that he had been carrying this knife with him for two years, indicative of how good it worked for him. Apparently, the automatic opening and closing was the one feature that nearly all the reviewers found as its best advantage. It was also complimented for having good balance.

One of the buyers quipped that its opening mechanism was a bit delicate, and tended to be jammed when there were dimes in the same pocket, so he got around it by making sure his change was kept in his other pocket. He also explained that this knife was not intended for heavy field work or cutting boxes, which likely answers some disappointment that other reviewers may have had. Other than that, the main issue with this knife was simply that it cost a lot, although most of them did not mind after they saw what the knife could do, while a few others felt that it was only nice-looking but not good enough for self-defense, especially given the price.

Overall, we would be happy to recommend this tactical knife for you, as long as you do not mind spending much for a good-quality knife.
