  • An excellent pocket knife.
Color: Black G10 - Satin Finish
The Benchmade 940 has a 3.4" long blade, which is a bigger blade than I would usually want in a pocket knife. However, since the blade is relatively slim (I mean from edge to back, I'm not referring to the thickness of the blade) and fills most of the handle, the knife still sits comfortably in my pocket using the nice sturdy pocket clip. The size of the knife makes it easy to open or close with one hand using the axis lock mechanism. I usually flick the knife open rather than levering it open with the thumb studs. I've found that the axis lock works better with blades that aren't too small and light. I think the way the blade is shaped to resemble a samurai sword may be more for esthetics than practicality, but the blade is fine for general use. It has a fairly long straight section, which works fine for straight slicing. The end of the blade is pointy enough for when when you need to pierce something but not too thin to be weak. The blade on my knife is S30 steel. It came pretty sharp and I was able to get it sharper using a ceramic rod sharpener. I haven't done any heavy-duty cutting with the knife. It has stayed sharp and the blade seems easy to keep clean. I have the version with a black G10 handle. The handle is open in the back, so it will be easy to clean if I get it gunked up. I like the way the aluminum handled version looks, but I was afraid the green finish on the aluminum handle would pick up nicks and scratches and the green finish would wear off with time. The carbon fiber version might be nice to have but is more expensive. This knife isn't exactly cheap either, but is a quality tool. ... show more

  • Nice. No issues. Buttery smooth. Solid.
Color: Black G10 - Satin Finish
Love it. The knife I received is great. No issues. Buttery smooth open and close. Thumb flick open and wrist flick close. Solid lock up with no wiggle. I like the g10 handle. Was hoping it was gonna be para military grippy. Is not. There is a hair of texturing left but is basically smooth. Is nice, no complaints. Blade is basically a skinnier, smaller Contigo blade. Blade is very centered when closed. Edge grind is even. Clip is nice, thick, and firmly up against the handle. I've read other reviews, about the screws on the inside sticking out...mine has this. They are more like knubs though. Are not sticking out that far and the blade is nowhere near touching them. Would I rather they not be there at all? Yes. Is it a big deal they are there? No. Not a deal breaker at all. Would almost be an issue if they are longer. But the are just knubs. Is very light weight. Is amongst my lightest knives. Very slim all around and takes up little pocket space. I can see why this is a legendary folder that most knife guys own. I own the other Benchmade 900 something....the one with the more pointy blade and aluminum handle. And I definitely like the g10 more. My quality control was great. Opens and closes like a dream, hair shaving sharp, centered, all that... Nothing to pick on. ... show more

  • This knife is amazing! I have always had a few picket knifes ...
Color: Black G10 - Satin Finish
I received my Benchmade 940-2 yesterday, 8-11-16. It was purchased through Ikon Goods and was Prime eligible. WOW! This knife is amazing! I have always had a few pocket knifes and multiple fixed blade knifes in my inventory, but I have only once spent the kind of money for a knife as I did for this one. After carrying my Kershaw Blur for the past 6 years, I had the itch to get a quality American-made knife, and I am so happy I purchased this Benchmade. My knife arrived and had some initial lock stick, and the blade was not free swinging. Blade centering is near perfect, and the grinds on the reverse tanto blade are pretty even. The lock stick quickly smoothed out with some repeated opening and closing, along with the use of a few q-tips to clean the blade stop and pivot, as well as the various surfaces of the blade and lock up interface. After lightly oiling the lock and other moving parts, and playing with the wonderfully smooth action and suprisingly pleasing axis lock, the blade and lock are as smooth as silk, with no gritty feel or any hint of lock stick. The blade drops freely when the axis lock release is engaged. = This 940-2 is the sharpest factory produced folding knife I have ever had the pleasure of owning. Benchmade Customer Service was also outstanding. I called them and requested a deep carry pocket clip, and they are sending 2 out free of charge, one black oxide, one silver. I am truly impressed with the $$ I spent. The blade disappears in the pocket, at the weight of only 2.6 ounces, I had to check my pocket multiple times, thinking I had left it somewhere, but no, it was still securely riding in my pocket. My previous carry knife did weigh 5.5 ounces, so the fact that the 940-2 is less than 1/2 the weight is incredible. I've found a knife I plan to carry forever. ... show more

  • Perhaps the best folding knife for the money.
Color: Black G10 - Satin Finish
The Benchmade 940 has long been heralded as one of the best pocket knives around. The 940-2 doesn't disappoint. It includes Benchmade's wonderful, ambidextrous AXIS lock, a slim design, and a stout blade. I've owned and carried a Benchmade - Mini Griptilian 556 daily for almost 10 years. I have long been convinced the Mini-Grip was the best EDC knife around. I even tried the respected Spyderco ParaMilitary2. The Spyderco, while great, was simply too big for my purposes. The 940-2, however, is a worthy upgrade to the Mini-Grip. First, the handle grips in the 940-2 are made of G10 as apposed to nylon in the Mini-Grip. The G10 is not aggressively textured. Instead, it is the right mix of texture for a sure grip without being so rough as to tear up your pocket. Second, the blade is a much more robust shape and made from a superior S30V steel (the Mini-Grip I own is 154cm, although it is available in other steels at a much higher cost). Third, despite being a larger knife, the superb design of the 940-2 actually feels smaller in the pocket, as it is slimmer and narrower than the Mini-Grip. Finally, the Mini-Grip does offer a better price point. But, in doing so, it resorts to a cheaper steel and handle material. The 940-2's premium price is warranted given its quality of materials. I love my Mini-Grip and will always keep it. I just won't carry it as often anymore. ... show more

  • Best pocket knife I’ve owned
Color: Black G10 - Satin Finish
Ever since I started carrying a pocket knife in college, I’ve generally bought somewhat cheaper knives that are well reviewed. However, over time I found that each of them wasn’t all that well made, and they started to fall apart. With that in mind, I decided that it was time to invest in a higher quality knife, and my research led me to the decision to buy a Benchmade. I was not steered wrong! One of the most important things about a knife is the quality of the blade, and this is a good one! It was already very sharp out of the box, and was immediately able to cut through things at work I had previously needed a serrated blade for almost as if they were butter. One of my other favorite things about this knife is Benchmade’s Axis lock, which is easily the best locking mechanism I’ve seen in a pocket knife. In addition to all that, the knife is fairly thin and isn’t very intrusive in your pocket, but this doesn’t diminish from the grip at all. The 940-2 is very comfortable to hold. And finally, it seems very well constructed, and I don’t think I’ll have to deal with it falling apart like my last couple knives. Overall, I’d say that this is an excellent everyday carry knife, I’d recommend it to anyone who’s willing to spend a little more money on their next knife. ... show more

  • Typical Of Benchmade - Very High Quality - MADE IN USA
Color: Black G10 - Satin Finish
It's Benchmade, super high quality. Blade is CPM-S90V which is one of the best steels for strength and edge retention. I plan to put it to the test, then use Benchmade's free sharpening service for life policy. It's a little hard to open, but perhaps that will improve with use. Not my first Benchmade and I love them all (different tools for different jobs). This COULD be a great deer skinner (I'll find out next season and report back). I'm not convinced yet that this one is the "one size fits all" knife for EDC, so I still carry two. If you are a lefty, you can swap the clip easily (it comes on the starboard side [blade side down]). MADE IN USA! ... show more

  • Best EDC ever!
Color: Black G10 - Satin Finish
Update: Added a photo of the new stainless deep-carry clip that Benchmade sent me for FREE. Not only that, but they sent me two! If you don't want to watch a 9 -minute video (sorry, I like to talk!) on a pocket knife, here's what I think: • The best (my opinion) EDC that you can buy. • Came centered perfectly and very sharp out of the box. However, the axis lock to a lot of adjustment to get the way I like it. • G10 is sanded and smoother than some may be used too. Good for jeans. • Axis lock is very sturdy and reliable • Very lightweight. Don't even notice it in the pocket. • Pretty much a 1:1 blade to handle ratio, which I love. • The tip is extra beefy, which gives me peace of mind with prying. • Benchmade warranty is worth the extra price -- free replacement parts, brand new blade replacement for $25, free resharpening if you need with Lifesharp, etc... ... show more

  • Perfection!
Color: Black G10 - Satin Finish
I've owned many, many Benchmade knives over the last 25 years. My favorite and e.d.c. for over 15 years has been an 806. As I get older, the shock and sometimes fear people have when I pull my 806 out gets less and less funny, at least to me. For about the last 4 or 5 years I've been trying to find a replacement e.d.c. for my 806. I've looked and looked and looked, and many have come close but none have been just right... untill now. I almost bought a 940 about 15 years ago, I thought it was an almost perfect e.d.c. but I don't like aluminum handles so I passed. I use my e.d.c. knife alot, for alot of different things, some involve field dressing animals and fish, and for me aluminum gets way to slippery when wet or bloody. The 940-2... I have to say... it's pretty darn perfect. It's the only knife I've found in 15 years to be good enough to replace the perfection that is my 806 as my e.d.c. It's big enough to take care of any animal I need it too, but not so big it scares people when you pull it out at a birthday party to cut some ribbon off you nieces present. It's hell'a light, but not so light you loose feel. It's balanced perfectly! The G10 really is the way to go for many reasons. To sum it up, the 940-2 is a perfect knife for me. ... show more
