Bench made or zero tolerance

[NY Leatherneck]

Well, I needed a new EDC.....gave my wife my Spiderco Endura 4 and bent my cheap Buck knife I had for 7 years. Went full crazy and got a high end (to me) Benchmade Presidio 2 570SBK. Didn't want a small knife as I usually carry an ESEE 3Mil as a boot knife but summer is coming and I needed something for pocket carry quick. This line just came out this year so harder to find but found one an ordered it.

I know it's a little big for an edc but to me I like a knife with weight and a wider blade. Serrated was a requirement. I looked hard at the 940 but a little slim for what I wanted. The S30V steel, T6 aluminum handle made my decision for me.

Naw, I really do like the Presidio 2, very cool blade for sure, would love to have one. One of the daily chores I use a knife for is the simple task of cutting the little plastic seals of the trailer doors. Its easier for a slender blade to do this. Most of the stuff I use a knife for is small stabby, snippy stuff that favors a more narrow blade. Plus I like long slender blades from an esthetic point of view.

That's what made
My decision too. That aluminum is so light and so nice. Nice knife. I considered going bigger too and I prefer a serrated blade as well, but I'll be happy with this knife. The next size up was so much heavier. Enjoy.

Nice, I had the original presidio auto and loved that knife. I think I have decided on the 590 boost now. I never had an assisted, can't really carry an auto as much as I'd like. The 590 looks to be a bit better quality than the 560 freek I was thinking about.

Sure, I have the 580BK-2, good size, not to big or heavy. You'll be happy with it I'm sure.

I would love a full auto knife. Just not worth it here since you can only carry while hunting or fishing. Plus they are probably tough to find.
