    Had the Freeman 451 when it was in D2 and sold it a few months later. The striations on the grind are eye candy but are a flaw on the knife. The striations create a binding effect when making long cuts to slicing an apple. Where the striations meet with the bevel it also gets in the way when freehand sharpening. He only made the knife for a year or so and then discontinued it.

    They F’d up the grind on my Cedar. Tip is messed up. Also took them weeks longer than they quoted on delivery. Also, there are sharp spots by the lock bar insert and by the tip of the pocket clip. Asked to purchase anodized hardware separately. Message was received and acknowledged by the company. Knife was sent with plain hardware without any further communication from Rob Johnson’s. Utterly disappointed in the quality and lack of communication for that price. Cannot in good conscience recommend Rob Johnson’s.

    J, there is no S at the end of Chris Reeve.. it's just Reeve. Singular not plural.

      What if you’re using the possessive form of Reeve, would not then the s be appropriate?

    Carrying a Benchmade Griptilian (the best pocket knife ever made) and a Buck 120. God Bless America.
    I would like to point out how incredible the action on those Freeman knives are. I sharpened one for a friend and I got to play with it a little bit. Best button lock action, easily.

      highly debatable on the griptilian claim. good work knife but it’s far from the best pocket knife period. even in benchmades own lineup the mini barrage, presidio 2, and the redoubt are better imo but i’m a spyderco guy (i do own two griptilians though)

      @@acid6urns I mean it’s the most comfortable, efficient, strong, and useful. I have batoned with it, I have made dozens of feathersticks with it, I have carried it a ton, and I just think it’s the most perfect knife. I am probably a bit biased because I got my first Grip for about $80 and my second Grip for $130. I got pretty good prices which probably also add to my love for them.

      Get the Hogue Doug Ritter version, it’s the real version of the grip, but has better scales, steel, action and fit and finish. Hogue is the most underrated USA knife maker, they smoke BM in every way.

      @@chrisjosekuehl I do really want one of those. However it is $30-$50 more depending on what you want. And I do think it might be superior however it is a coby of the Freek, also by Benchmade. Might be coincidence, they might not of, the RSK might have been made and released first but I don’t know.

      @@chasewells5464the rsk is is designed the guy that designed the griptillian, it’s a copy of the griptillian or it was the original, but for the extra cost you much better steel and better scales. I think maganacut and 20cv are the options. And if you’ve never tried the Hogue crossbar lock it’s probably the best crossbar lock on the market. I used to be a griptillian fan, I’ve had 3, but the prices are getting crazy, while Hogue prices haven’t gone up or they have barely gone up, they also have a lifetime warranty and lifetime sharpening.
