Cutting to the Bone: Benchmade SHOT by Nutnfancy
Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 жов 2024
- Another meaty Nutnfancy Booth experience at SHOT. It's been over a decade since I've been in the Benchmade Booth. Mrs Nutnfancy and I get lucky and get Vance to host us here. He is knowledgeable about all things BM including the newer knives we'll cover here. The deep dive into the BALI SONGS is worth the price of admission here. Also we do low fly overs on many of the knives below. This is an real video on the brand for real knife guys. I loved editing this one and watching all the interesting topics again.

Too expensive, its a leisure geezers toy
Anyone who's _not_ a BM fanboy has already realized their prices have gone insane. However, the Claymore is another level of insanity. $360 for injection molded plastic handles and CPM D2 steel? The idea that this is in the same price range as Microtech's OTFs is absolutely incredible.
When they destroyed guns and posted about it on social media I was done with them.
Who, what ?
@@davidgolden1726 just google Benchmade destroys guns will learn all you need to know. Then they show up at shot show to sell there knives. 🙄
I looked it up. It's not as bad as it sounds. The local cops asked for help destroying seized guns that it was their policy to destroy. Benchmade agreed. The cops posted no social media thanking them. I personally think they should have told them to fuck off, but it's not like they were making an anti-2a statement or something. I still think Benchmade knives are way overpriced, and I'll never own one for that reason.
@@NotBull068 benchmade posted it to there social media. Was quickly taken down of course. Guess the guns were scheduled to die so it’s ok. 🙄
@@NotBull068 The biggest problem with them was around the same time of that fiasco, they got caught donating to anti gun politicians in exchange for laxer knife laws. that and they are overpricing the shit out of their knives right now. you can get into custom knife territory for the prices of some of their new knives which is what i have opted to do.
I have a few benchmade knives, and they are great, but their prices are so far out of line that im not interested in anything else from them. Definitely not worth the money these days... there are plenty other great makers to buy from.
you can get into custom knives for some of the new BM prices. i highly recommend doing that if youre gonna spend that kind of money. some of the Medfords start for less for their "production" models and are still USA made with higher quality materials than BMs
Did it say $900 for a butterfly knife? 😮
Another great video, NF! I too have the shootout in my edc. So lightwieght and blade holds an edge. Buut you said it the grip tape is needed.
I can listen to your videos in long format anyday. You tube shorts give me a headache. I mean how much can you talk about in 10 seconds 🤔 , i want the details.
Benchmade has lost their daaamn minds with their bali pricing. $500? Dude, I got my EOS Serpent for $200. You can get a brand new Squid Industries Krake Raken (a community *standard*) for less than $300... no thanks, Benchmade.
Benchmade prices are LOL
there is always a deal online, gp knives
Good at showing stuff. But I can tell he is tied by the guys at Benchmade that cut guns in half with grinders for propaganda. Also he kind of has some a****** vibe that he's holding back. Would not want him to be my boss :-) he did fine showing everything though. I will not buy a new benchmade with my money. I'll buy a used one but not a new one. Much rather have a ZT because they don't cut guns in half and post it on their Facebook.
As someone that loves bushcraft and bushcraft knives, I can tell you that those Siberts are nothing I would ever use. Too thick, too heavy, too boxy, not scandi ground. I love Benchmades, they're really good at pocket knives.
I love Benchmade but the prices are creeping up for some products
Agree, own several, didn't know they snuck up this much
@@ChumbuucketAll of the imported steels and other metals like aluminum and titanium skyrocketed after Trump placed the tariffs on imported raw materials. Recovered some, but not a ton.
Such enthusiasm for the items....
And Nutnfancy just sold another 1000 Benchmade.
P.s.Hope they are still not anti 2A.
The last time you were reviewing the Benchmade booth, they were still coming out with the Ball Axis flipper.
Benchmade got me into knife collecting.
_Can you just imagine someone jumping out of their pickup truck with 2, 9" fish-crafters, one in each hand... screaming at you.. "I'm going to gut you like a fish!".. Holy moley maaaaan!!!_
lol prices
I stopped following Blade Show after Nutnfancy stopped going. I didn't realize how much I missed Nutnfancy booth reviews. Amazing content!
So true
I thought an Osborne 940 was too expensive when it cost £100. Now you can't get one under £200 -- and they're more like £220 - £240. Yeah, but no.
I'd love to own a benchmade but for something I'm probably going to lose as an edc knife I can't justify the cost. They are definitely top notch quality knives.
I disagree, when many other companies, even Chinese ones, are this quality or better, they are no longer top notch, and just average or below average when factoring in price. There is no reason a titanium axis lock in M4 should cost $600+ in 2024. I can buy a made in America Hogue and titanium scales for half that with Magnacut steel.
@@RepEvox As much as I love the benchmades I own (my favorite knife and daily carry ever the Benchmade 928 proxy) they have just gone completely over the top on price while not doing anything any better than a bunch of other makers, if they made the 928 now it would be priced at stupid price level I would bet,, I meen large cpm20cv blade with a large piece of titanium frame lock and g10 handle on ball bearing pivot,, they'ed want a thousand dollars for that knife now,,, sorry Benchmade but you have lost your freakin marbles.
@@looseballs1966 I don't know what has ever been so special about Benchmade. I have an original model 43 balisong, an old 710 that I love (except for the steel), and a S90V Bugout. None of these are special in terms of fit and finish, construction, or materials. I wish they would make titanium balisongs again, or any axis folder I've had over the years in modern steel for a competitive price. I have never bought a Benchmade knife for MSRP because of how bloated the prices have been for 15 years, not just since Covid.
@@RepEvox I hear ya and nope nothing special about Benchmade at all,, in fact there are tons of offering out there that far exceed Benchmade by a long way, and yes Benchmade prices are highly bloated, only reason I ever own the 2 I do own is because of a boardem killing time trip to Cabela's in Postfalls Idaho 8 years ago and because the knife display was right inside the front door and Benchmade was right there and quite honestly I had never even really heard of benchmade at that time,, so I asked the salesman about them and he seemed shocked that I knew nothing about them so he showed me a couple and the second one he handed me was the 928 proxy and it was instant love so I told him to ring it up it has a new home and I didn't even consider price, the $300 price tag is cheap considering some of the custom knives I had in my collection, However I never had to pay for most of the knives I own even the ones with price tags exceeding $2000 because I got them from my uncle who has been making custom knive for ove 50 years for free, I hve some real exotic ones with real Ivory handles schrimshawed on by my mother who does all the schrimshaw work for my uncle, ones with real mastadon handles, ones with 24 carat gold bolsters and all that fancy garbage, every birthday and Christmas it's a new knife from uncle Ken,, anyhow about a month after getting the 928 I decided to see what the hype around the Griptillian was and ordered one in the same steel as the 928 (cpm20cv) because I really like that steel, i guess the griptilian is a good knife but only meh in my book, the 928 however that was Benchmades biggest mistake possibly by discontinuing that knife,, because I have seriously beat the F**k out if it doing stuff you shouldn't do with a folder and it has been in my pocket exclusively for the last 8 years and it is still in nearly like new condition, anyhow good talking with ya take care man.
Dam, when I saw the vid pic, I thought YESSS Benchmade is making Claymore's for civilians.
I used to love benchmade. I just can’t support them anymore now. It’s too expensive for quality that’s no longer the best… :/
Macdonalds is bad for you
I have a small drawer of Benchmade knives and my main edc knife is a Benchmade Freek with G10 scales. I still have a number of older models on my wishlist, but the new overpriced models are of no interest. Now that everyone can legally make crossbar knives Benchmade doesn't have a corner on the market and their new designs are lack luster, not to mention the insane pricing structure.
The Adira line color-scheme is clearly lifted from Wes Anderson's The Life Aquatic!
Got their orange blade knife, I think it’s a meatcrafter model. I did not harvest a whitetail last year so I haven’t used it yet, but it’s really good at shaving my arm hair. Can’t wait for next fall
if you are still a virgin, check the prices... problem solved
How did this review end up on the B channel?!?!?!
I love my Lc200n Spyderco but am looking forward to seeing more of the water line.
Excellent booth review.
This butterfly knife is interesting, I collect all sorts of them, the weight is reported to be ultra light at 4.2oz, I think 5 is fairly standard for ideal flipping knives, anyways we'll see. just lit that 500 dollars on fire. Benchmade is always good quality balisong knives, i hope it's going to be a great one.
5oz was ideal in the 2014-2019ish. They've slowly become lighter and lighter.
Professional fisher friend 😆
Crying about the price? Its 450..
Can we tell them to make a griptilian in something other than black again?
The only thing I don't like that Benchmade is doing is the stupid FDE colorings on everything. I carry a carbon fiber Bugout because its 2oz and ultra sharp.
I mean McDonalds man. It’s the best
Bro you don’t have to be all up in his face lol
I hope they gave you the knife with the red blade
Man, I'm so sad I missed crossing paths with you, brother. Was working the show so I didn't get much floor time. Maybe next year?!
Balisong is the adult fidget spinner
Looking foward to the spyderco vid. Benchmade nah. Triple owl on the shed.
Benchmade makes great knives :)
@cutlerylover meh, nice seeing you here jeff! I've lost 2 940s myself. Not cool.
The 530 in my pocket and the multiple benchy’s on my shelf are all because of nutnfancy.
Vance is a legend..I got to work with him for years at BKC. Such a good dude!
Bushcrafter is great.
Cruwear is insane, so comparing magnacut to it is speaking highly of larrins work!
I am digging these knives. Have not bought a benchmade in many years. I am digging these.
Their stuff is cool But I will probably never own one.
I want a bugout-sized full immunity!!
It’s lariat rope
Good reviews, not the best company.
Nutn jumping at the opportunity to buy that Osborne mini hahaha
Vance did great! I missesd the booth reviews.
Awesome booth review. Vance knows his stuff. Love all the details
BENCHAMDE SUCKS
If they brought out a Tanto bugout id buy one or two!
Great video
Lol, not !
Great review...
I have it on my crkt provoke.
I love grivory
