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

Amazing Design!
Color: Black G10 - Satin Finish
Stunning design & one of the best EDC knives on earth. For most people the 3 3/8" blade is the perfect size and the overall profile is very slender and easy to carry. If you want to try a 940 for your EDC the 940 - 2 is it good option, but almost entirely due to the axis lock and them studs being harder to actuate than the other 940 series knives, it wouldn't be my first choice. If you are planning to purchase one I highly suggest that you handle one in person before you buy, and preferably multiple of all the different variants, so you can compare them and make sure that you are getting one without QC issues. All of the 940s are amazing knives and I highly recommend them provided you can handle them first and get a good price. Pros: Access lock is easy to operate. drop dead gorgeous design. Great warranty / customer service. G10 is strong lightweight and hides wear. Very lightweight, super compact. Good blade to handle ratio. Great ergos and balance. Completely ambidextrous. Green standoffs look nice. Awesome pocket clip(s). Disappears in pocket. Fidget factor is awesome. Smooth action and heavy blade. Beautiful blade shape, decent slicer. S30v holds a good Edge, and is pretty easy to sharpen and maintain. Cons: Not a perfect sharpening choil. G10 is a little slippery. Screws stick out internally. Warranty prevents disassembly. Not a fan of the handle changes from the other models. Harder to use thumb studs and access lock than the other variants. A little overpriced for the materials you are getting. Bad quality control. My Omega Springs broke in less than a week of light use. Still overall a very nice knife and if you are attracted to the overall design, then you should definitely try one out. ... show more

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

A classic knife and a useful tool
Color: Black G10 - Satin Finish
If you ask yourself if this knife is worth the price it's not. If you break it down to materials and specs you will find much better deals. So why all the fanfare and gushing reviews? Pick one up and play with it. Look at the design from the perspective of art and function. Then try to put it down and walk away. The 940-2 is made of quality materials. The fit and finish of my knife are near perfect. The blade is well centered and the action is nice. Yes, I tuned it and lubricated it and put a mirror finish on the extremely sharp edge. It came sharp and cut well but the edge grind was rough. Part of my enjoyment is in perfecting the tool for its purpose. The blade opens easily, locks securely, and closes buttery smooth on command. The access lock is my favorite locking mechanism. You will be hard-pressed to find a folding knife which will give you as much blade in such a compact lightweight design. It's a pleasure to carry and to use. The design has drawbacks, the narrow handle can make it harder to deploy the blade but you adapt to it easily. The blade being so shallow is not the best slicer but it slices well and is strong all the way to the tip. Everything in life is a compromise. The price of this knife is easy to justify by the pleasure of use and ownership and the idea that if taken care of it can be handed down to future generations to enjoy and it can carry a part of you with it. I have the knife my father gave me and it is precious far beyond its materials. ... 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

I'm done trying to find a better knife.
Color: Black G10 - Satin Finish
This is more for comparison than an actual review of this phenominal blade. I've had the carbon fiber s90v 940 for about a year and a half now. I use it many times a day and it's seen abuse and misuse that would have likely broken lesser knives. After all this time it's getting dull, so I plan on sending it in to benchmade to be sharpened. I wanted another knife to supplement the first knife. First comes the orange/black griptillian. Great knife for the money, but a bit big/heavy and the scales felt cheap. Next up was the higher end mini-grip. Probably the worst knife for the money of the 4. The scales felt ok, but it just felt like a toy despite its weight and girth. Finally I resigned myself to trying a lesser version of my 940 thinking that I wouldn't be wowed by it, but that I would find it sufficient. From the moment I pulled it out of the box it felt good. Similar but very slightly heavier. A weight that is barely perceivable. Action as smooth as my daily knife. Beautiful in its own right. The size and the blade length just can't be beat. I'll return the other two, but I was tempted to keep the full size grip. ... 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
