NRA Outdoors by Benchmade High Country Knife - Limited Edition of 1000
 
blade is good but...
By Knife Collector from Winston Salem, NC on 09/25/2008
Pros:
Good blade design, My favorite steel, Okay grind, Sharp Blade
Cons:
Metal extends beyond wood, Uncomfortable Grip
Best Uses:
Backcountry Camping, Day Trips, Field dressing, Hunting
Describe Yourself:
Avid Adventurer
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Comments:
this knife has a good design..the blade is the correct size and thickness..D2 steel, if properly heat treated, is about as good as a knife steel can get..I really dont understand the way the knife steel extends past the handle around the entire perimeter of the handle.It makes it uncomfortable, especially when it's cold..A little more wood in the handle would make a perfect hunter

NRA Outdoors by Benchmade Model 12700 Knife - Lockback
 
Predictable result of foreign-sourcing
By GinoVerified Reviewer from Salt Lake City, UT on 08/13/2008
Pros:
Comfortable Grip, Good Weight, Versatile
Cons:
Defective Lock, Difficult To Clean, Poor Craftsmanship
Best Uses:
Campgrounds, Day Trips, Hunting
Describe Yourself:
Avid Adventurer
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Comments:
Sad to see Benchmade sourcing their knives from Taiwan...with predictable results. The knife is shipped in a plastic clamshell package, with the main blade in the locked position, and the one I received is frozen in that position. No evidence of corrosion, just a defective mechanism. This one's going back for a refund. Also, the other two blades are shipped partially open...a dangerous condition for whoever opens the box, and worse for whoever tries to replace them in the box in that position.

Quality knife @ good price, few quibbles
By GinoVerified Reviewer from Salt Lake City, UT on 08/13/2008
Pros:
Durable, Finish, Nice looking, Sharp Blade
Cons:
Cheap sheath
Best Uses:
Camping, Hunting
Describe Yourself:
Avid Adventurer
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Comments:
Good steel (D2), rear of grip a little uncomfortable for large hands, but not too bad. Sharp out of the box. This will make a great general big-game field-dressing knife as well as a skinner. The sheath, while attractive, does not come near the quality of the knife. With the strap unsnapped, it fits the knife quite loosely, and has zero additional retention ability. Do NOT invert the sheath, even a little, with the strap unsnapped. The strap could also use a stiffener (metal tab) on the tab by the snap, as after just a few manipulations the leather here has become too flexible to be an effective thumb-/finger-break.

Durable, Sharp Blade
Cons:
Small grip
Best Uses:
Camping, Hunting
Describe Yourself:

Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Comments:
This seems like an OK knife. While nothing is wrong with it I would say it should retail for around the STP price? It is simple and has a small grip. I don't see it ever being worth any more, I am not sure what the run of 1000 means with this knife?

I purchased the knife on sale and would say that is the correct retail price for this knife . I am happy I did not pay retail and I see no value in the limited edition.

This is an extremely well made knife using D2 steel for the blade. I was so happy with the first one that I recieved that I ordered a second one. For knife collectors the price on this knife cannot be beat. My first knife has a number of 0029 out of 1000.

High Quality, Low Price
By Foothill Explorer from Lincoln CA on 06/13/2008
Pros:
D2 blade at it's best
Best Uses:
Camping, Home, Survival
Describe Yourself:
Avid Adventurer
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Comments:
Benchmade makes excellent D2 steel blades and it's evident on this knife. Fit and finnish is fine. I got such a low number (0029 of 10000) I'm tempted to put it away and not use it at all, and buy another for every day use.
