Benchmade 551S H2O Griptilian AXIS Knife

[djSpinege]

i just got myself one today. but it sounds like a rattle snake... almost like there is a loose screw rolling round inside of it. my mini grip does not make this sound. so my question is, is this sound normal or am i the only one with a noisy H20...? please answer so i know if i should send it back or live with it. Thanks.

It is Georgia Clay Orange haha.

[maxwellknives]

would you trade a sog tomcat 3.0 for this knife



[dustinnop]

the thumb stud works better for me

but i love how it closes

[mrd7051]

Is it legal to carry a knife like this in Wisconsin?

@mrd7051 Something you should know, not him.

[oromoto]

Hi, have you tested the rust resistant?

[GearBuyersGuide]

@oromoto

Thats difficult, we live in the desert.. not much rust out here

[oromoto]

@GearBuyersGuide LOL...The first thing you need in desert is a rust proof knife :D

[75SilentWarrior]

How does that steel hold an edge?

[GearBuyersGuide]

@75SilentWarrior

So far very well, I use it alot and it's very sharp

[jaeforceone]

does this grip have the 420J2 liner inside?

[75SilentWarrior]

@jaeforceone Some kind of steel liners yes, 420j2 specifically i'm not sure. I think its 410.

[jaeforceone]

@75SilentWarrior Its 420j2 but it still sucks, i use mine for kayak fishing and the screws have rusted and left stains on the blade. I sent mine in and they replaced screws and cleaned everything thoughourly and even sent me a new clip. The knife is great but get a spyderco H1 knife if you want it to be 100% waterproof. The components are even made out of H1 and my friend hasn't had any complaints yet with it

I just snagged one on ebay for $80!

[rooftopeagle]

oh that's the knife, gotta buy one!!!!!

[GearBuyersGuide]

I really like it so far

[Pookle37]

Edit- Theyre made out of 420J, a more corrison resistant version of 420.

[Pookle37]

Guys, just so you know, I've heard that the axis lock and the liners are all 420 steel, not corrosion resistant. Im not sure if this is true but i've heard it. So if your thinking of using this while diving or whatnot, I wouldnt if the mechanism and liners arent X15 T.N.

You will cut yourself very soon

[GearBuyersGuide]

Why?

[blackquiver]

looks pink to me..but im color blind

[GearBuyersGuide]

I think the orange messed with the color on thecamera, look how gold / yellow the rest of the image looks

[Manny4155]

I'm pretty sure Bear Grylls used this knife in the Will Ferrell episode.
