Benchmade Bushcrafter "QUIK" Review

Benchmade Bushcrafter "QUIK" Review
The 945 isn’t too small. I can still close it without the blade hitting my palm. I do that fairly regularly with my mini bugout.
This is the best review on UA-cam for this knife! You actually showed real world usage and I thank you for that.
Just wipe it off. It won’t rust
It doesn't need to be slightly bigger. The 940 exists.
Good review my man. Great blade for sure!
It really is! Thanks so much for watching!
Great knife, Sounds like you should have maybe got the 940 full size Osborne instead?
I'm waiting on a configuration that I really like but I agree with you! Thanks for watching!
Own this knife and don't use it like I should but factory edge with leather strop only and it's held up nicely for me
Still one of my sharpest in my collection and only touch it up with a ceramic rod. Thanks for watching!
You used the can opener backwards on the Gerber. You pulled but actually it's a push opener like a Victorinox
/embarrassed
you are too funny. love you in the kitchen trying to cut tomatoes, that says it all!
Thank you!! Thanks for watching!
Nice review of the Spyderco Pacific II with nice detail and information. I liked and subbed u so keep them coming and I will try to be watching.
Thanks for watching! I'll do my best!
@@omegaagent661 Okay thank you!
I really like mine. It’s different and unique with a modern look.
I agree I think it's super cool. Just wish it held an edge better. Thanks so much for watching!
My suggestion for any knife is to use it EXCLUSIVELY for a month before giving a review. AND you need to use enough that you can review how easy or hard it is to sharpen before a review. My expectation is that for the purpose, the Salt knives are a good option when around water. But sharpening going to suck when you finally need to. For a knife that brags about corrosion resistance, I would love to see it sit in a tub of salt water for 24 hours. My guess is the blade would be fine, but the springs would be a mess. If you can't take it apart and replace/fix items..it is a throw away knife with a GREAT blade. I would suggest attaching a little floaty for keys to it. This way it doesn't sink to the bottom of the ocean.
Great suggestion and thanks for watching. I've been using this knife for a year and although I don't use it exclusively I do things with thos knife that I would never do with any of my other knifes. For example, I keep it on me while swimming at pool parties or really, any environment where I may get wet and more times than not I just throw it all dirty and grimy into my tackle box and forget about it. You make really great points though and I appreciate you watching and commenting!
Nice review, I'm buying one. Blade Hq has for 73.00 edit: maybe not 🤣
Thanks! I appreciate you watching and it's to bad you couldn't snag one after all.
I have carried the 940 for over 2 years and love it but find it a touch too long . Bought a 945 yesterday and it's right on the edge of too small . But I still prefer the 940 a little more so far
I feel like Benchmade always goes just too small with their minis
@@nickallen8333 I actually returned the 945 it was just far too small for my hand picked up a bugout 535bk-4 and have fallen in love with it
@@derrikjasper1283 yea I had a 945 too and after a few weeks flipped it on the secondary market. The 940 is probably the knife for me. I have been wanting to try a bug out with ti scales though
@@nickallen8333 I do love my 940 but like I said it's a touch too long the bugout sits in the perfect range at 3.25 inches and the bk-4 model of the bugout comes with production aluminum scales and a m390 blade
Thanks for watching! I gave mine to my wife. It was just a little to small for me but I have to admit that I get jealous when I see her pull it out of her purse and use it.
This is way more of a money clip than an edc knife. If you're going to use this as edc... Probably better off to look at the utx70 or if you aren't a communist... Utx85
Thanks for watching and I totally agree. Be on the lookout though as I do have a Cali legal OTF review in the works!
Cool to see the knife in action by showing real-world use. Seems like the size makes it great for EDC. No offense but I wouldn't carry the big knives that you compared it to. They look too big and inconvenient for daily carry and it would alarm everyone haha I also still consider S30V to be a premium steel. Keep in mind all the affordable and generic knives out there, they're still using steels like 8cr13mov. S30V is still only for high quality knives and you have to pay substantially more. So relative to the generic knife you would find at Walmart or Big 5 they are really nice. It's just that we've been spoiled by steels like S90V and 20CV (M390) and Maxamet so we don't appreciate S30V anymore
You make a good point, S30V is good stuff and my Benchmade Bushcrafter has that steel and has been a great knife. I prefer CPM M4 now since it's easier to maintain a really sharp edge but you can't beat the corrosion resistance of the stainless steel. As far as size, it really was the mighty mini beast that will handle most normal edc stuff for 90 percent of users with ease. Thanks for watching!
@@omegaagent661 Thanks for the response! Don’t get me wrong I think it’s totally fair to expect a higher end steel considering the price you paid for the knife. I just mean that it could be worse. S30V is still pretty good. :)
Got a sprint run of cts bdz1 tanto purple blur has held up awsome cool vid
Oh nice!! I wish I would have caught on of those bad boys! Anyways thanks for watching!
Thinking about the storm trooper version at hq now but 314 seems like a lot but I’m in ca ao I can’t get a ultra arrhggg!
I'm really digging all the star wars variants they are selling right now but man are the pricey!
@@omegaagent661 bought a blackout version for 275 love having otf
My favorite knife is my spyderco manix 2 sprint run blade hq m4 natural g10 scales but no coating looks alot like this knife
Oh nice, congrats on that knife! For me, if it has M4 but no DLC then I gotta pass. I'm to lazy to ensure it won't ever rust or stain.
When I originally bought this knife s30 version the only thing that scared me was the rubberized grip because I have had rubber coated gear wear it basically turned to goo
My scales and grip are still doing good, even with the thinset that refuses to go away. If yours are melting though it must be really hard use! Anyway thanks for watching!
If you want otf knife in ca that it legal you got through all the point scales out other than cool factor!
Ha! I guess so! Thanks for watching!
I enjoyed your video. I have one of these knives and really like it, but the sheath is not that good. I was always afraid I would lose this knife, because the sheath is to flimsy. So, I put the knife into my Condor knife sheath and Wala. Perfect fit after I wetted the leather and formed it around the handle.
That's a good idea! Thanks for watching!
57 or 75 points. You never told us where it fell short, really. 57 seems like a mediocre score and doesn’t go with your use of “really great”, which you used many times.
I thought a long time about this comment before I decided to reply and I can honestly say that you make a good point. My system is weighted towards premium material and no matter how much I like the knife, the steel will keep it from receiving a high score. To keep things in perspective though, the Bushcrafter is still my highest rated knife in my collection so I hope that goes towards showing how awesome I think this knife is. Thanks for the comment and thanks for watching!
54/75 and the highest rated in your collection! 72% -- wish more reviewers were as honest and open as you, and I'd like to see the rest of your collection! @@omegaagent661
I found them awkward to use also as you can’t get them to open wide in your hand. I think the grip is a poor design.
I agree the handles are weird but I got used to them and I can honestly say I can process trout faster with these shears than with a filet knife despite the awkward design. Thanks for watching!
Awesome review 👍👍
Thanks for watching!
Great reveiw man! I appreciate the fact that although you love this knife, youre able to still point out its flaws through an honest opinion. I love this knife as well! Having said that, I want to ask. How has your sheath held up? I noticed that when I sheath mine with out looking or paying attention, that its fairly easy to slice into the buttery soft leather at different angles. I cringe for every time ive done it, and it almost makes me want to replace it and start anew... heh
The strap is still doing good but I do believe it could be designed better. If you're not careful you will cut it off. Also, the buckle comes off way to easily and a few times I've reached for the handle and almost grabbed the edge of the blade. Im lucky to have not sliced my fingers on at least two occasions. But man! That buttery smooth leather just feels so good!! I dont have the heart to upgrade it. Thanks for watching!
I bedded some epoxy on the inside of the sheath to protect the leather from the blade edge. Never had any damage. Someone made a couple holes near the strap button and threaded some elastic cord running from the snap to the back of the sheath. It causes the strap to fly outward, away from the knife as soon as it’s unsnapped. Could solve your worry. It is in this video near the end: ua-cam.com/video/D5GVRA8bURA/v-deo.html
How do you feel about it 6 months later?
Still one of my favorite knives! Love it!
@@omegaagent661 Nice 👍 Been debating between s30v & M4
@@mattpinap I had the s30 for several years no trouble
Gonna get mine soon. GREAT video. Rez….. most likely. If not, god bless.
Thanks for watching!
At the moment you can pick this knife up from blade HQ for 115$ .
IMO its a must buy at that price. If you got it, swing it!
115$ is a steal man. In my country a 945 is 265$.
@@timbervandenhul9383 wow, that's insane. That makes me realize what a deal it is. I ordered mine , and it has come in. Great knife.
That knife worked well in a kitchen than outdoors
I have one. It’s a good knife. This video though.... no much of a review. Ummm. Some trash music? I guess.. and fire steel and kerosene is cool.
Ha! I should of lit the soundtrack on fire!
@@omegaagent661 right on, man. It’s a cool video. I was being a dick lacking a reason. The 162 is discontinued now. I lost one and replaced it. Maybe that’s why I’m pissed.
That sucks!!! Hope your new knife works out.
im really impressed by this video. you hit all the points elegantly. nice job. I just ordered this exact version of the exocet from GP knives today. turquois with the dagger edge. im curious how well yours has held up since posting this video
Thanks I really appreciate it! I ended up giving this knife to one of my best friends as a thank you for helping me tile my house. He works in construction and uses it constantly. His only complaint is that he cut himself with it once but he said he's never had a sharper knife and loves to show it off. Thanks again for watching!
@@omegaagent661 good man. its always better to give things away then let them collect dust if it isnt in your carry rotation. you deserve more subscribers.
Good vid, thanks!
Thanks I really appreciate it!
I have had my bg knife 8 years it's not let me down yet. I have done everything with it.
That's what's up! Thanks for watching!
Now that you have more experience with the knife, what do you think of it? Is the primary grind sufficiently thin behind the edge? Oftentimes production knives are ground too thick in the primary grind.
Thanks for watching and for the questions. I love the knife and use it every time I go camping and fishing. As far as the grind being sufficiently thin, ill be honest, I'm no expert in grinds and can't give you an expert opinion on it other than to say the knife is still incredibly sharp despite all the hard use I've put it through.
@@omegaagent661 Thanks for the reply. Have you had any problems with the edge chipping?
I broke mine. I reckon it was a defective steel, but benchmade has been less than helpful honoring their warranty, so they might as well all be junk. Will never buy from benchmade again
How did you break it?
@@Gil-X47Lapua This, never had a problem with bm warranty.

Question: What's the best site for lowest price?
I honestly don't know. I'll buy Gerber and Kershaw knives on Amazon but if its a company that needs a licensed dealer, like Benchmade or Microtech, then I order from bladehq.com. I like bladehq because their prices seem fair, they are licensed dealers, their customer service is always friendly and helpful and they have never let me down. If you are buying an expensive knife you want to purchase from a company's you trust. Even if it means not buying a knife at the absolute cheapest price. Thanks for watching!
