Consistently satisfying
Benchmade has always been consistent in the quality and workmanship. The Osborne is a prime example of that. My compliments to the craftsmen who obviously care about the product they produce.

BM 940-04 Osborne is a great knife
This is my fifth Osborne and I rate it highest out of all of them. The quality is top notch; the blade opens and closes easily via the Axis lock or the thumb stud and the feel and look of the "denim" is authentic. I especially like that even after a month, the patina has already changed based on use, similar to my Levi's. Thanks to KnifeCenter for all they do to support my collection/habit. Benchmade knives make up more than 70% of my collection; they set the standard for folding knives.
