@LikesToBike1

This resume goes to the bottom of the pile, maybe next year

(assuming you prove we would want to work with you)

As much as I LOVE the auto axis, and I really do like the way it can open / close from either side (either hand).. I wuld not get another one (unless I needed the auto for something)

For me it is more important to be able to close effortlessly and safely like I can with the regular AXIS

SO my 2¢.. save a few bucks and go AXIS

from what i understand, the black class is automatic knives designed for law enforcement and military use, the blue class is the "heart of benchmade" where the bulk of their knives reside, and the gold class uses the top materials available in the knife market.

[noahboa13000]

black box are knives are recomended to the militaty by benchmade

[phunkmasta66]

My uncle gave me his Benchmade 5500, because he has a 5 year old youngster running around and is afraid he will get into it. I love this knife, it's amazing.

[GraveKeeperDeath]

Nice review. I love this knife. Solid and dependable for sure. I have the same one except it has the black blade.

[airsoftkid4242]

im a EMT and would like a good knife. price range is $200 or less. i would also like to use it for camping/hiking.

[GearBuyersGuide]

@airsoftkid4242

I would suggest an Axis lock (benchmade) since they are easy and safe to open AND close one handed

[airsoftkid4242]

@GearBuyersGuide thanks

[airsoftkid4242]

@GearBuyersGuide thanks for the help

[man1on1fire10000]

it is a verery very soilid knife and its wort using

and worth geting



[majorleaguinfidel]

My gerber is my sacrificial knife...I love my benchmade!

[meyers5150]

I bought a 5000 auto-axis Presidio. The handles are guaranteed to destroy your pockets! That was my only complaint, I returned it for a 9555 RIFT auto-axis. G-10 handles that wont ruin your pants, and a reverse tanto 154cm. blade. I love it!...If you are thinking about buying a 5000 auto Presidio, do yourself a favor and check out the 9555 RIFT, way cool.

[shelbysharp13]

im wondering out of the use you may have put it through have you had any side to side or up and down blade play? i hear these are SOLID...im looking at buying this or a grip, but i need a stong knife. just wondering your opinion. thanks.

[GearBuyersGuide]

@ shelbysharp13

While I haven't abused this, a few of us have carried it daily for months at a time and it is still in GREAT shape

[GearBuyersGuide]

@ApocalypticRedIX

What ??

[ApocalypticRedIX]

@GearBuyersGuide AAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHA, i live in PA phila. and i was wondering if its legal to own it

[kai199191]

just recently bought a grip 550hg but retuned it and got 5000.

What I can say is GET THE 5000 ITS WORTH IT.

[chuckv5150]

Hold the FN knife still!!! I'm getting a headache.

[PhilipK73]

Found this nice while airsofting. Good to know it's a great knife. :P

[GearBuyersGuide]

you found one of these that someone had lost? Dang

[PhilipK73]

Yup just found it lying on the ground and no one said they lost anything. It's real dull, but it's still nice. TY for the review.

[kai199191]

@PhilipK73 You should return it to the owner. Do the right thing. Damn, I'm jealous!

[PhilipK73]

If I knew the owner I would. Don't worry though, karma got me. The crappy belt clip fell off and I lost it at church. Probably someone took it.

[LouZava]

Just bought this knife! Cant wait to get it! I might do a vid on mine soon!

[GearBuyersGuide]

right on, link your vid to ours if/when you do

[uberpaintballer]

my friends dad is a benchmade dealer is 150 for this a good deal

[GearBuyersGuide]

that would be a very good deal IMO

[uberpaintballer]

how much do they usualy go for

[GearBuyersGuide]

I think $230 on the website

FYI - They only sell autos to military / Law Enforcement

[paintballman410]

on the benchmade website, when it says hk knifes, what does that mean? heckler and koch? I bought the 14455 h&k auto axis and i love it! It is really strong and i'm really happy with it. Butttt its new so i can't say it's awesome until it's been put threw alot of use.

[GearBuyersGuide]

are you feeling OK?

You are asking about a knife you own..

Didn't you see the H&K info on the knife you own?

[paintballman410]

nahhhhh i just pulled it out of the box and forgot about the paper work hahahaa.

[cmonsterz]

I don't have any experience with the auto version of the Presidios...but the manual versions are completely awesome; fantastic knives...and those aluminum handles are uniquely brilliant!

[RunsWitGuns]

why the fuck are auto knives illegal though like seriously how does that make it any more dangerous

[GearBuyersGuide]

I think it makes scared people feel better to have dangerous things made illegal

Of course bad guys could care less, but they don't think about that

I guess it also lets them add another charge to someone using one in a crime... but how often are / were they really used anyway?

[paintballman410]

You can make it so that the blade can come out with a modification and it shoots out!

[GearBuyersGuide]

I doubt that very much,

[paintballman410]

lol then i guess i heard wrong.

[uberpaintballer]

he is thinging of an otf i think

[GearBuyersGuide]

good point

and OTF (Out The Front) type of automatic knife can be rigged to do that perhaps

[PhillieBRidin]

great review 5*****

[GearBuyersGuide]

thanks
