BOKER Discontinued Magnum Kalashnikov & Speed Lock As We Know It BOYCOTT BENCHMADE

This is a warning to all knife dealers who sell BOKER, Smith & Wesson, and Schrade Automatic Knives. Benchmade is claiming that they invented the push button automatic switchblade that has a locking device on the knife. This claim is outright nonsense and the patent is narrow in its scope and needs to be revoked. If anyone has the patent CRKT does because they filed a locking device prior to Benchmade on their folding knives and a switchblade is simply a derivative. BOKER Magnum, Kalashnikov, and Speedlock line is discontinued as we know it.

So I urge people that understand the issue to stop Benchmade and fight back.

i just bought benchmade 940 becouse of 1 of these internet guys that say its the best edc and tactical knife in 1 sounds great. 170 $ im not impressed at all and the blade came dull. I have bought 30$ knivew that were way sharper. so I an done with benchmade!

Well, I am glad Bitchmade is getting what it deserves with guys posting the truth about the shit they sell now.

If you need something good stick with American Made Steel to begin with first, some 154 cm or S30v. Sandvich is Swedish and is very good as well.

Is this why Microtech only makes OTF autos now?

They make the LUDT still but they have no locks on them any more.

Thanks for the links. I guess it would be pretty redundant to mention lawsuits on their site. I was just expecting wikipedia to mention some kind of controversy like they do with celebrities. But I guess BM has that covered too. Thanks, JB

There are about 20 other people who have been threatened with legal action, they send nasty letters to them with threats of lawsuits. Me I go no threats, I just got stuck with a lawsuit and then they expected me to pay their extortion. $15,000 for selling $200 worth of items they claim are infringe their patent. I didn't even argue I said I would pay damages like anyone else 5% is standard but Les De Ahole didn't want the $10.

That in itself shows stupidity. Try searching a legal website and use some scruples
