Great looking knife from BM. I don't have an auto from them yet, might have to start seriously looking into picking one up. I could go for the mini or normal Claymore. Like that it has a safety feature. The push-button release on my Kershaw auto's always makes me a tad nervous, even though after testing it in various ways it never deploys unless I actually push the button 😅 It's great that Zach is an advocate for the community. He is in BM's backyard and can literally stop in there any time he wants. I doubt he'll convince them to bring prices down just because people don't like them, but design-wise he can certainly bring some collected thoughts to them. Constructive criticism, not just complaining, is the way forward for US manufacturers like BM. Thanks JB! 👍
As far as knives go I only have two more good knives. A exo-m and a 9400 i’ve had them for a good while. it’s a lot cheaper because I have always been a gun guy. Tired of spending 400 bucks to go shooting For an hour or two
Thanks, J.B. Out of curiosity, does anyone have a knife named “Grenade”. Of course I’d like all of the best blades to be called “Mine”, but “Claymore” causes me to think of anti-personnel devices. Nevertheless, the mini-Claymore and mini-Adamas look like they’d be fun blades to manage.
Just bought this today. $207. Almost got the mini Ademis, but went this route. 2nd bench made. First is a medic. I like it 🤷🏼♂️
Awesome! Glad you like it!
I'm thinking I would like this more than the full size, great looking ots! Thanks for sharing JB!
Yes sir! I do for sure! Thank you Didier!
Surprising comfortable griplength for the mini Claymore! Very awesome Zach-knife. Thank you for the review JB.
For sure Jeroen! Thanks so much
It’s cool. And definitely hope they change the injected molding
Thanks for taking a look Cliff!
Out of all the knives I have and handled I've never had a Benchmade of any model it's a cool looking knife great video man 👍
Thanks as always David!
Thanks so much for sharing BigRed 👍
Thank you Marcos!
Definitely looks like a good size for you. I'm looking forward to checking it out as well. Love the grip on it. Thanks
Yeah...fits me well! Thanks KC
Basically an auto version of bugout and I dig it!

I love the Claymore and the mini Claymore my only complaint is $275 bucks for D2 is a little high thanks for sharing JB
Thanks so much Grim! Have a good day!

That "Butterfly tax" is a MoFo J/S

Thanks Steven!
This mini is cool 😎!
I dig it for sure!
Cool knife and review JB , thanks for sharing , God bless brother !
Thank you Michael!
This is getting crazy I ordered this knife the other day as well. I ordered the Morse and looked up a review of it and you were there.
Hope you dig it!
I just don’t know if it will be pocket friendly enough
The Morse Is pocket friendly but I don’t get along with that top flipper
I’m just not sure of the bells on the handle on each end.

Great size Benchmade there. I like the look and the size... just not the steel honestly. Thanks for the review JB. Very good and honest review.
Thanks for taking a look Tim!
Sweet one definitely need one
👍👍👍 Have a good week Kevin
Very nice looking auto, already recommended it to some friends looking for autos.
Right on brother!

Oh how I wish we could carry Auto’s in New Jersey.😢😢😢😢😢
I know how you feel Larry!
Nice one, buddy!
Thanks David!

MTech has a line of Grenade knives! They kinda look a little "gas station" honestly!
I love automatics.
Right on Kelly!
I have the full size it's one of my favorites ✌🏻
Glad to hear it my friend!
Cool little auto 👍
Have a good day my friend!
@@BigRedEDC you as well, JB!

I like it!
My deploy button doesn’t seem very smooth but overall I like it
Thanks for checking out my video!
👍🏻🔥
👍👍👊👊
Tough lookin' little knife.
Yes indeed Gman!
1:40 - _FRONT_ Toward Enemy. haha. why does everyone get this wrong? Thanks for the info.
Thank for watching
@@BigRedEDC you're welcome. I've been trying to choose my first "real" knife, and I've been having a tough time. Cheers.
Safety switches are useless. I carry so many autos, I never, ever use that switch.
Right on
Cool knife, but California.
Uhoh....what did I miss about California?
@@BigRedEDC 2 inch limit on carry for automatic knife
@rustyknifelover4463 ah...got it! Yes sir!
