I have purchased Emerson, Spyderco, and Benchmade knives from Amazon and have never received a fake. To label Amazon as an Internet whore is wrong. The savings were considerable when compared to the price on the manufacturer's website.


Hmmm, I think you read into this wrong.
I was referring to lowball price sellers not the Amazon or eBay, themselves...


Sorry, my mistake. On eBay I could see it.

I'll be the oddball.
I've never liked the feel of a Benchmade in my hand.


Had two , sold them.
No issues whatsoever with their quality, just not my flavor.

If you wanted to cover price ranges it would go:

Keyshawn-Cheap
Benchmade/ZT- Mid range
Chris Reeva-High end

All of those knives represent well for
Their price range.

If you only 1 additional and ZT is included in Keyshawn that gives you the widest range. Benchmadea are slightly over priced compared to Spyderco IMHO but they have good carry appeal and brand name recognition. I think they might be a safe brand to carry.

I have 2 531s. Love these, and I'm a knife dork. I have several ZTs, 2 Hinderer XM-18s, several Cold Steels, Kershaws live on my duty gear- specifically the ripcord. I also have a couple Mercworx and Striders. The Ripcords get carried at work everyday, and the 531s ride in my pocket everyday. I WILL be buying another 531. SOON. My point is, Kershaw and Benchmade are middle of the road, but the most useful. Useful and loseable. Just sayin.
