I can now kick myself...

...for not getting this knife the first time. I wouldn't be sending the other one back! Like Goldilocks said "this one is just right". This one is a keeper.

Very nice knife

I've never been a "knife guy" but I decided I needed a good EDC. My first really expensive knife and my first auto opener. I'm very pleased with my choice.

Benchmade CLA

My new Benchmade CLA automatic knife is a replacement knife for the one I carried all over the world during UN missions as a War Crimes Investigator. I’ve put that knife in a display case and it’ll never see service again for fear of losing it. It took a very special knife to replace it and the CLA is that knife. I use it every day for opening every type of package and it is so sharp I don’t have to force it I bring it out in front of people just to show it off and it is everything I love about Benchmade. The automatic feature makes it truly a one handed knife and it’s not a big knife but a 3.4” genleman’s knife. This is the last knife I’ll ever own or carry and it does everything I bought it to do. Thanks for the chance to say something good about Benchmade and their CLA knife.

Awesome Knife!

I received the knife about one month subsequent to ordering, but well worth the wait! The knife operates smoothly and efficiently, while the blade is razor sharp. I am very satisfied with my purchase and it is worth the price.

Benchmade 4300bk cla auto

this knife was a gift to me for my 40th bday. im very hard on knives, as they all have a purpose. the benchmade 4300 is my 2nd benchmade, and it does everything it is designed to do. it is razor sharp, and opens everytime on command. the blade is quicker then the blink of an eye, and locks safely into place. in the short two weeks of owning it, it has proven to be wellworth the cost. the safety lock is just an extra bonus for carrying edc, and is easey to use.

Great knife

EDC, industrial mechanic, so its gets some pretty vigorous use. Very good quality. Blade holds an edge very well. Lost a star because when it was received, the cutting edge was pretty bad, a very low grit was used when it was sharpened at the factory. Oil stone and diamond hone took care of that.
