  • Benchmade Autocrat Review
    On today’s video I review a very interesting offering from Benchmade knife company. The autocrat is a beautiful OTF with a interesting and ergonomic design and style all its own.

    For $425 another problem I have is with the Autocrat the thin blade. And the handle is so thick compared to that thin blade. I'd be afraid to snap the dang thing, even without prying.
    I'm not for clones, but since I have owned about 15 & currently own 5 genuine Benchmades, I went ahead & bought a 9CR18MOV clone for $40. At that price I'll gladly take the downgrade in steel quality. The rest of the build quality is spot on, including one of the most important parts of any OTF: the locks. The locks on the clone are thick & sturdy. For 10% of the price & only maybe 60% of the steel quality & 90-100% of the build quality, I'm happy with it.
    Good video, thanks! 😃

      @@RedwolfEDC Yes, I got coyote beige/stonewashed but there are also black, green, & black/black. I cannot believe you had multiple misfires.
      I love Benchmade so much, so it really does pain me to criticize them. But man, the Autocrat in general seems to be a misfire in my book. I watched another UA-camr who had the dang thing happen during his review. Both clones I've owned have never misfired (sold the first one).
      I'm examining the clone under a jeweller's loupe & I'm blown away at the fit & finish. I actually do really enjoy the feel of the G10, though overall I do tend to prefer aluminum like on my Microtech.
      Again, I don't want to encourage the purchase of clones, but in some cases it's just not realistic to expect people to shell out over $400 to try a knife. Most people won't ever pay more than $20-$30 for a knife in their their life.

    Lifetime warranty, you pay $12 bucks shipping and get a brand new $500 knife.
    That alone is worth the extra price, you pay for what you get. Microtechs are known for misfiring...

    Interesting to see the g10 scales. It's a nice looking design and seems well done but that price is ridiculous. At that price I would definitely by something or several somethings instead. Great review 👍

      Man I will never understand where Benchmade gets their prices from, like 90% of the models they make are overpriced to say the least. They make good knives to be sure, but good isn’t good enough at that price tag.

    • @RedwolfEDC
      @RedwolfEDC  3 роки тому

      So it definitely still requires a decent amount of force to operate, it is much smoother overall and the force required to actuate is less but I cannot guarantee that it will be enough to make a difference for you.

    Why do people call it a safety mechanism? Never understood that, it isn’t a safety mechanism there are tons of otfs with this same exact mechanism that will go an inch into your leg , just depends on the strength of the spring

    • @RedwolfEDC
      @RedwolfEDC  3 роки тому +1

      The difference between an inch and 4 inches is I want the others 3 inches to stay out of my leg. 😂
      So it’s definitely a safety mechanism though it’s one that could undoubtedly use a bit of refinement.
      Also I had the protech dark angel go off in my pocket and it didn’t go an inch into my leg, it went maybe a quarter, though it still hurt, I still cussed a bunch and then stupidly proceeded to punch a concrete wall. The stab wound took some super glue and several weeks to heal, my hand was in a cast for several months though. 😂
