[Other] Benchmade Shootout BL/PL OTF 3.51" Mint Grivory Tanto CPM-CruWear blade Limited Edition - $229.99 Shipped

Posted by BrothersFS@reddit | gundeals | View on Reddit | 33 comments

Last knife deal i posted went really well, my distro gave me first crack at this discontinued limited-edition colorway. I was able to put 20 pieces on hold, so it's limited to that...

The Shootout was arguably 2022's most exciting Benchmade debut, so when fans asked for more color options, they got to work. The 5370BK-03 retains the CPM-CruWear blade—as well as its exceptional strength and toughness—now with a black DLC finish. Sea Foam Grivory replaces the original black handle, while a lanyard pommel replaces the glass breaker of its predecessor. Powered by the spine-fired release, the Shootout is a double-action out-the-front automatic that truly packs a punch and carries light. This knife is part of Benchmade's seasonal releases that will only be in production for a limited time.v

Can somebody sell me on why to buy one of these over a $100 OTF knife? Is there that much of a quality difference?

Fearless-Jeweler-318@reddit

A benchmade otf? I doubt it. They're infamous in the current age for making overpriced gimmick knives, but boomers see the butterfly logo and their eyes pop out of their heads like a cartoon character and buy w/e they sell. I wouldn't buy benchmade anything new today that's not a bugout.

As far as otfs in general go, there is very large diminishing returns in price when you go past 100 bucks. Microtechs are good sure, not 700 dollars good lmao. Otfs (and butterfly knives for that matter) are insanely overpriced for what you get.

What are the OTF’s to buy? Hell I’d even pay double, if necessary. But even the Kershaw Leeks that I’ve carried for 15+ years are dumb money these days ($80+ for MSRP on the standard steel models—I used to buy them all day at $30-$35, sometimes as cheap as $25 during flash sales). It seems like they’ve just gotten so unreasonably expensive that the value proposition has dropped and it would be worth considering alternatives.

My dad gave me his old mini griptilian several years ago. As a guy who likes when my guns go bang and my flashlights make light, I like that this knife cuts stuff. And it’s neat that they’ll tune it up for me every once in a while for free if I send it in. Definitely wouldn’t pay $150-200 or whatever it was/is lol but it is nice

Quenz@reddit

Brother, a $40 Gerber will do you just as good and not hurt as much when it slips out of your pocket. I can understand spending this much on a kitchen knife that doesn't leave the kitchen, but $200 on a pocket knife is just asking for heartbreak. Inb4: I've never lost mine in x years of carrying it

basilhdn@reddit

I got a limited edition signature series ultratech and it was $550. I carry and use it daily for 5 years now lol. A couple of times I have thought I lost it, the heartbreak was real 😂

ImDukeCaboom@reddit

It's not even that so much as, a pocket knife is a multi tool. They get scratched, chipped, tips broken off, etc

I see them as an expendable tool because of that. Then it's no problem when you use it in the dirt, pry something, whatever.

FightTheFade@reddit

Coming from someone who did lose their $200+ benchmade before, couldn’t agree more.

Thank you! Sensible reply that just saved me a few bucks. Would be nice to have one, but I already have a Krate OTF knife which I think will be just fine for my uses (even if i do need to sharpen it a bit more often).

tecbfs@reddit

Steel quality makes a huge difference in price, but I’m sure the knife guys will chime in. I think regular price on these was north of 350 which is absurd in my opinion

Diligent-Parfait-236@reddit

$100 should be getting you a quality knife steel blade, maybe not quite as premium but I don't know how make people are really looking for anything better than D2 with a good heat treat, which you can find for under 100.

I picked up a cobra last year, came dull, did a poor job of sharpening it to a fine edge, and it cuts as well as the day I did it.

SpaceCampDropOut@reddit

Nothing to sell you on. This is beyond overpriced.

Pitiful_Bat8917@reddit

Fuck benchmade they cut up a bunch of AR15s for free, posted about it, were anti 2A and then walked it back hoping everyone would forget

Vorpalis@reddit

Is this the knife equivalent of a KAC rifle?

I gotta get into the bougie knife racket.

Ancient-Lock2907@reddit

Benchmade prices are a bit out of touch for what you get these days.

Chris Reeves Knives are probably the preferred high end knives at the moment. Not to be confused with CRKT, which is a decent brand, but not ultra premium.

I loose about 2 pocket knives a year, so I prefer Cold Steel and Ganzo brand.

r/knives , Sorry in advance.
