Great knife

The carbon fiber handle feels really smooth in the hand. The action is a little tight from the manufacturer as to be expected but after a little play it is just right

Very well done

Very beautiful knife & hard working. This is the closest you can get to having a "fixed blade folder". It is more of a BROWN lining & thumb studs & etc. On the internet it looks like brass but is NOT. Very well done.

Marbled carbon scales magnacut steel mini Adamas

This is my edc. I have it on me like it's part of my body. I use it for everything from cutting down boxes, rope, plastics, rubber, prying stones out of my big truck tires, and of course cutting up food for my belly. The balance of this knife is perfect put your finger in the notch and it stays level. I love the feel, the weight of the knife and seeing it in real life is just beautiful. I like it so much I bought another one. I'm just so happy that this knife was still available that I was able to purchase another one. I can say I'm not partial to any knife manufacturer since I own hundreds of knives and I'm not a real big fan of benchmade knives being that I always thought they were over priced. Trust me the $337 to fork over the first time was a bit hard to swallow but when I got and saw it and started to use it and my confidence grew in time on the abuse I was giving it I thought ok I'm getting a backup only in case somebody steals it from me. This knife is definitely not going to be a loner. I've been checking out the banchmade narrows now that $600 was too hard to swallow being the blade is a m390 with titanium handles. Just to let you know I went with the Chris reeves knife in magnacut steel and titanium body. However, this mini Adamas is my choice for edc. It's just that nice it's an eye catcher. You get it don't let it out of your site. I guarantee somebody around you will be eyeballing this knife just to wait for you to set it down and forget about it. But, you won't because you will be in love with it.

Amazing knife!

First Benchmade knife and I'm very impressed. I have had it now for over a month and I really cannot find anything bad about this knife. The knife is beautiful. The scales in particular are over the top. This knife also feels amazing in my hands (Large). The action was a bit stiff in the beginning but loosened up quickly and is now butter smooth. First time with a Magnacut blade and I'm impressed. It is very tough and holds its edge. The quality of the knife seems excellent. It is really built like a tank. I have a fairly small collection with some more expensive knives and this is clearly my favorite.

Excellent Quality

This is a beautiful knife, and looks even better in person. Great quality, smooth action, and solid lockup. Could have been a bit sharper out of the box in comparison to my Spyderco's, but a quick strop helped a lot.

Perfect EDC

Got the full size auto literally ONLY for self defense situations and loved it so much I figured the mini had to be just as nice but more pocketable. Yup and double yup. To be completely honest the fact it was under $400 AND made with magnacut was all I needed to see. After the narrows debacle and now the $600 for the (Bugouts big brother can’t remember the name) I assumed Benchmade had plum lost the freakin minds but THIS knife…this one here is actually worth $600 and cost me less than $400. It’s literally the perfect EDC blade. I have countless $300-$1000 knives and now I’m gonna have to invest in a swiffer or some other quick dust method cause they won’t be moving around much anymore,lol.

Love it...it's a Benchmade!

I've had this knife for a couple of months now It feels great in the hand, and it is well designed. This knife came razor sharp {CPM MAGNA CUT}. First time owning this material...WOW. The action of opening and closing is buttery smooth. I have to say Benchmade is my favorite knife brand. I own more than my share of Benchmade knives. I love them, you can't go wrong!!
