A review from: Austin Price Value Quality: I’ve had this knife for a while and it succeed’s in almost everything it’s a great knife to carry on you it has good weight to it and is overall great for everything
A review from: Mark Price Value Quality: Had this knife for about a year and a half now and it was my first Benchmade. It is my primary EDC both on-duty as a LEO and off-duty.The knife has been used extensively in a variety of conditions and environments (Heavy rain, snow, dirt, mud, sand) and yet is still sharp and still looks almost like new. I just ordered a second one and will definitely be purchasing many more Benchmade knives in the future!
A review from: CelticCross74 Price Value Quality: Over the years I have had one mini standard Barrage which I still have and use, 2 full size 581 full up with bolsters/coated M390 blades and recently just got my first Custom Shop full size Barrage in an awesome desert tan standard G10 pattern, all black hardware with of course the serrated 20CV black coated blade. I have NEVER had any of my Barrage knives fail me in any way at all. The fact that Osbourne designed in an actual LOCK into the back spacer that you can lock the knife closed AND open is just GENIUS. Despite the prices of them they are still high value as if these were made by any other company they would start at $250.
A review from: Natalie Quality Price Value: I order a custom barrage for my husband for Christmas and he was blown away with the quality. He has always had Kershaw knives and they do they job but this is on a whole other level. Yes this knife is a little bit expensive but your getting your moneys worth for the quality and customer service. If your looking for a knife company that stand behind their product and services this is it, we will be purchasing more in the future for sure! Thank you Benchmade for caring about craftsmanship!
A review from: Chaotic Value Quality Price: I love the barrage. Great size, weight, and customizable. I ordered a custom with sand colored G10, S30V, and all black hardware. The look is amazing, but I was a little disappointed to find out that dye from regular blue jeans is very attracted to sand colored G10. After about a month of regular carry, my sand G10 was more like a blued G10. I was able to remove the scales and scrub the dye off using nothing more than a scrub brush, elbow grease, and dish soap. Now, the barrage looks like new! Very good knife, quick deployment, good balance, amazing steel, and very aesthetically pleasing. I almost like the mini barrage better though, faster deployment, and it fits my hand just perfect. Either way, I have both versions (mini and regular) and both definitely live up to the Benchmade name.
A review from: CelticCross74 Quality Price Value: I have now had 4 Barrages. 2 full size 581's with all the DLC blade coated goodness and BOTH got STOLEN. The FULL DRESS aluminum bolster and G10 handle not to mention the spring assist that when new feels like has so much tension in it that the knife actually has recoil when you open it. The Barrage is still the ONLY folding knife I have seen with the GENIUS Axis locking tab along the start of the spine of the knife. You can lock your very sharp Barrage blade in the CLOSED position as well as the OPEN position!

A review from: JoJo Price Value Quality: I love this knife. Feels great in hand. Opens fast and looks amazing. If you’re thinking about buying one think no more and just do it. Can’t beat the price and you can customize it. I won’t ever buy a different brand of knife from now on. Thank you Benchmade!!
A review from: Keith Price Value Quality: I have bought other Benchmade knives but received the Barrage as a gift. This knife is so solid and reliable. Very good quality throughout...great steel and the assist action comes in very handy for one handed opening. My go-to EDC knife.
A review from: Brandon Price Value Quality: I’ve purchased many knives in the past, all different names Brands. Locking mechanisms stick, action is stiff, blade quality questionable and not as sharp from factory as you’d like. I pulled my new custom barrage out of the beautiful box and carry/cleaner cloth and it opened as smooth as silk! Sharpest knife out of the box I’ve ever felt.. hands down quality. You absolutely get what you pay for. I literally have been sitting flicking it open and closed for the past few days in amazement! I would recommend this knife to anyone who wants to spend the money and see what a real knife feels like. Thanks Benchmade!
A review from: Bondy Price Value Quality: I needed an edc for my construction job and just around my farm and this barrage does the job perfectly. It works better than razors for cutting plastic and things like that, and the serrated portion allows it to slice through roots and branches. Used heavily the last year and haven’t sharpened it once, still doesn’t need it. Great knife.
A review from: Matthew Price Value Quality: This knife was gifted to me. Had the half serrated blade. I carried the knife everyday. It was used for personal and work. Took a heavy beaten and never failed me. Until I lost it on the job. Will buy one to replace it someday. Very pleased in all with the product.
A review from: Vin Price Value Quality: This was my first Benchmade product, I had heard a lot of good things about them and not a single bad thing about them. I browsed the site for a couple days and found that the Barrage would be great for me to use daily at work. I was impressed by the quality of the knife and how the spring would open it from any position and the satisfying click once it opened fully. I used it every day working from the day I got it for about 8 months and the blade stayed sharp no matter what I did to it. Unfortunately the knife has gone missing and I cannot find it, it has been a couple months since it went missing so I decided to order another knife from Benchmade. Great product. Great customer support (my order said processing for a long time so I gave them a call and they were able to give me updates on the making and shipment of my knife). Strongly recommend. not a single complaint about the product.
A review from: Timothy Price Value Quality: It was my first Benchmade purchase and it was worth every dime. I bought it initially for EDC but found it a bit to big and a little on the heavy side. Not deal breakers by any means but that made it more of a working knife for my camping and hiking needs, moving from my pocket during casual days at home or work and into my hiking kit. But by no means does that make this a negative review, it is still a stellar knife and I'd recommend it to anyone looking for a good knife for more rugged work and food prep.
A review from: Kris Price Value Quality: I have a few of these and they are... Hands Down, The best damn knife I've ever owned. I like the drop point with the serrated section of blade. The blade holds a good edge and the serrated bit is good for dirty work, rope or cardboard. The blade opens in a flash and is thick enough to not flex or break cutting through something real. It will go clean through a beef rib bone. After I bought my first one (stolen by corrupt costa rican airport security) I have bought 3 more. It is my go to knife for EDC and is up to the task of anything you can throw at it. The only possible addition that might increase its utility is if it had a small ceramic glass breaker on the handle. Well done Guys, Thanks for making a kick ass knife.
A review from: Josh Price Value Quality: A tiny bit of a read but I urge you to read it through to the end.

I ordered a fully customized barrage and I just received this knife today, so take my review with a grain of salt, as I’ve barely been able to use it yet. This review is based entirely on first impression. I’ll start with pros, then move on to possible cons, and finish up with my overall feelings about this knife.

Pros:
#1: Extremely light weight. When I grabbed the package off the doorstep, I was almost certain it was going to be an empty box. Obviously it wasn’t, but hopefully that puts into perspective how truly light this knife is. Generally I prefer a knife with a bit more weight, but it’s not a big deal at all. I’m actually excited to try out a light knife for once.
#2: Every detail of my order was spot on, including my custom engraving. It’s positioning was exact to how I wanted it, and utterly perfect.
#3: Even with as thin of a blade as this has, the blade feels very strong and does not flex.
#4: The axis lock feels great too, definitely a locking mechanism I feel I can trust.
#5: The lifetime warranty and lifetime sharpenings are a great added feature to a knife I hope to have for many years to come, and eventually pass on to my children.

Now let’s look at the (possible) cons:
#1: Based on the video emails I received showing each step of the build process (which is awesome by the way), I expected this knife to be MUCH sharper. It’s sharp, don’t get me wrong, but it failed to cut through phone book paper, and failed to cut cleanly through printer paper, and couldn’t make a clean cut through speaker box carpet (very similar to felt). Based on the video that shows them testing each knife with phone book paper, I expected more of a razor finish on this blade, but sadly that was not the case. I also noticed the blade is not evenly sharpened. I can shave with the curved edge near the tip, but I can’t with the end nearest the middle and the handle. Also a bit disappointing, but still not a deal breaker by any means.
#2: While I knew the handle would be a form of plastic, I expected it to feel more rugged, but the handles feel like they’re hollow. I’m not sure if they are or not, but that’s certainly how it feels. Based on countless other reviews however, I have come to accept that this supposedly won’t be an issue in the longevity and overall durability.
#3: The inner metal frame of the handle is so thin that it flexes under a decent grip on the knife. I don’t feel like that should happen on a knife coming from a company like benchmade, and especially on a knife with a starting price of $145.
#4: It’s not just the handle that is plastic. The piece that bridges the gap on the spine of the handle (at the top back portion of the handle) is also plastic. Don’t quote me on the name of this piece, but I believe it’s called the backspacer. I would have expected and hoped that they would have made this part from metal. Plastic just doesnt seem durable enough for that piece, but I’m going to trust benchmade and their legacy that they know what they’re doing.

Now for my overall opinion. Considering this knife has a base price of $145, and my custom selections bringing it just over the $200 mark, I can’t help but feel like the knife should have a more rugged and durable feel. It’s like the front half (blade and axis lock) were made by an amazing company, but the back half (handle, backspacer, and inner metal frame behind the handle covers) was made at the same factory that manufactures silverware for the local dollar store. However, all this being said, as contradictory to my review as it may sound, I don’t regret the purchase, and hope to be able to pass this knife down to my children some day.
A review from: jesse Price Value Quality: I BOUGHT MY FIRST BARRAGE ALMOST A YEAR AGO (154CM WITH VELOX GRIP) AND I HAVE USED IT EVERY DAY SINCE IT HAS STAYED RAZOR SHARP (FOR INSTANCE) LAST HUNTING SEASON I CLEANED AND PROCESSED ALL THE DEER ME AND MY FATHER HAD TAKEN WITH MY BARRAGE JUST TO SEE HOW THE EDGE RETENTION WOULD HOLD AND I CAN STILL SHAVE HAIR WITH IT (I HAVEN'T SHARPENED IT) I AM AND ALWAYS WILL BE A FAN OF BENCHMADE PRODUCTS 10/10
A review from: Brant Price Value Quality: I have been carrying this knife for a year now and I love it!!! It is a great knife and I highly recommend it. It makes me proud to know I have such an amazing on me when I carry it!!
A review from: Thomas Price Value Quality: My wife bought me one of these for my birthday about 4 years ago. I never had a Benchmade but always wanted one. In this knife has exceeded my expectations in every way possible it holds an edge good, when it does dull it is easy to sharpen. I only wish I would have got one sooner.
Thank you for making a affordable, good quality knife.
A review from: Paul Price Value Quality: I purchased this knife about 3-4 years ago with the G10/Aluminum handle and M390 drop point, plain blade and satin finish. I loved the action and solid feeling as soon as I pulled it from the box. I carry it every day. I actually lost it from my pocket one day this past summer while prepping for a ride on my motorcycle. Never happened before and I can only assume I didn't clip it properly on the new rider jeans I was wearing. I thought it was lost forever and I as pretty bummed. I actually found it on the road about a block from home, where I had stopped briefly and gotten off the bike to put my cell phone in the tour pack. I noticed it had a couple of minor scratches on the handle where it had been driven over by vehicles and I was concerned it wouldn't operate properly. The knife opened and operated as smoothly as it ever did the clip fits slightly looser than before but still holds securely in my pocket. I've never had an issue where this knife was found loose or missing before or after this 1 incident. The fact it still operated like new after being left outside for 3 days (one of which was a stormy, rainy day) obviously been run over at least once and probably more speaks well for it's ruggedness and quality. I obviously gave it a good cleaning and still carry this knife every day and use it often. It holds it's edge very well and I couldn't be more satisfied with this knife.
A review from: DeWight Price Value Quality: I just received my custom barrage out of the box it was beautiful this thing is a monster and very solid assisted opening is great and it is razor sharp with m4 steel the price is a little high but the quality is superb!!! I'll never have to buy another knife again
A review from: Stonebreaker Jude Value Quality Price: Tolerances are tight and the feel is warm cold and strength combined. The blade is razor sharp and it opens as fast as a scalded ape. I now use this to develop a certain morel flexibility in otherwise unattainable flexibility of steadfast comrades.
A review from: Kellen Value Quality Price: I'm a firefighter/paramedic in Galveston County, TX, and while I was working during Hurricane Harvey my house flooded. My wife was alone for four days while I was at work and used this knife to tear up every bit of flooring in our house and to cut out the bottom two feet of drywall in every room. The tip never broke and it even held a decent edge after four days. The finish is a little worn now but after an hour on the wet stone it's ready to go again. I'll never buy another brand ever again.
A review from: Scott Price Value Quality: I purchased the Barrage 580 due to being USA made, and I liked the look and feel. Afterwards I realized just ow great a knife this really was. I had heard of the Bench Made name but not super familar. I love the fact it turned out to be such an awesome knife. I use it everyday and it still will shave my arm. Keeps an edge very well. I'm very excited and pleased with this purchase.
A review from: USMCShooter Price Value Quality: I've been carrying nothing but Benchmade for 16 years, and the Barrage variant since they were first introduced...I now own 12 Benchmade knives, as well as buying numerous models for friends, family and colleagues over the last 15 years....I'd actually venture to say I've "Invested" over $5K in the company...HA!
As a Marine with over 30 years active duty and nine combat deployments, my gear is important to me, Benchmade has ALWAYS performed to my standards...which are higher than most. When you absolutely need a knife to work, from cutting det cord, or cutting flesh, to digging a hole in a wall for a breaching charge, benchmade has never let me down...ever! I actually prefer the assisted opening to the automatic...just a preference. And I will say, I carry three when I go to the pointy end of the stick...one in my trouser pocket on a lanyard, one on my vest on a lanyard, and a fixed blade strapped to an ankle inside a boot...probably the most important...I will have one on me when they play Taps and send me to guard the pearly gates. To the folks at Benchmade, Bravo Zulu Ladies and Gentlemen...every time.
A review from: mike Price Value Quality: love the barrage and the AXIS-Assist i also like the lock mechanism so you can lock blade if you want to I do wish Benchmade had more options to the custom knife builder.as far as price well your getting what you pay for and that's American made quality
A review from: Willy Price Value Quality: I've had my Barrage for almost a year now. I have had no complaints at all. I love the feel in my hand and the durability. The assisted open has come in handy so many times while I'm fishing, at work, wherever. It's seriously so convenient. I can't stand knives that don't have it now... it's ruined me, but in the best way possible! I hate to admit it, but I let it go through the wash, so I just had it serviced to get a screw replaced. They not only replaced the screw, but Benchmade also replaced my bolster lining, my blade lock, and gave me a new thumb stud. Excellent knife and excellent customer service. I would recommend it to anyone.
A review from: RonL Price Value Quality: I'm a first responder and have been carrying this knife for about 4 years. My one and only complaint is that the Valox grips are slippery when dry and super slippery when wet. I played with the G10 and G10/Aluminum at the SHOT show and they aren't that much better. Frankly, a Barrage-type knife with Presidio-type grips, or something from VZ grips would make the knife 100% better.
A review from: Alaska Man Price Value Quality: I ordered one of these through the custom knifes, I lost my Griptillan and decided to order one. there's is a lot I like about this knife, I love the assist open, the lock is cool and the S30V blade is awesome, but I just did not like the feel in my hands it seamed to be a bit slippery the Griptillan is far superior to this knife, I love the Griptillan but this one falls a bit short on how it feels in my hand, some may love it. but its not for me. I am giving it away as a Christmas gift
A review from: C.Mayes Price Value Quality: Outstanding knife. I opted for the custom Barrage with G10 Handle, Black S30V Blade with graphic on both sides and an initial on the other. I am impressed with the build quality and it arrived razor sharp. I like the G10 over the plastic, it gives the knife a better feel. The custom shop allows choices of every aspect of the knife, truly making it unique to the owner. I had some issues with the website and due to that I missed a discount they offered. I contacted the customer service department and due to the problem they extended the offer, which saved significantly on the custom knife. I was very impressed by their willingness to work with me and felt it went a long way to build new customer loyalty. I love the knife and am very pleased that all of the BM knifes are built in the USA. The Barrage will not be my last I am sure. I will use the knife primarily for outdoor sport, i.e. fishing, hunting, backpacking, etc. I think it is a bit large for EDC, but depending on the person carrying the knife, it could be okay. In summary I love the knife and am impressed with all aspects of the company.
A review from: John Price Value Quality: I bought this blade in 2013. I have used it for eveything from filleting fish to shaving my face. I have reassembled it at least 100 times to sanitize and remove dirt inside and out. It has seen a lot of exposure to salt water and yet corrosion is figuratively non-existent. If I ever manage to lose this one, I know for a fact that I will be coming back to Benchmade for a knofe that should last a lifetime.
A review from: AUSTIN Value Quality Price: When I first heard about benchmade my grandfather has had one and it was really nice. I'm not completely aire what he had but when my dad got his griptilian I knew I had to get one. So I ordered thiscustome Barrage and God it was killing me just to get it in the mail.When I got it I had saw the really nice case it was in and knew already it was high quality and very durable. The knife itself is wicked nice it's so sharp I didn't even nitic I sliced through my pants when I was wiping the blade off. I carry it everywere and it's my go to knife. Very impressed with the build and finished look on it. The only problem I had was the price I get there really high quality but just was a little high in my opinion. But that didn't stop me. Really graet. Thanks Benchmade
A review from: Head Trainer Price Value Quality: Has a hollow blade grind that makes it very sturdy in the blade, can put in some heavy work but won't weigh your pocket down if you go with the black plastic handle. I personally buy in two sometimes and did with the Barrage, because I like to know the ceiling and breaking point of my gear. I treated one like a tester and the other like a fielder and in pocket in show-condition. Covered the tester in "FLEX-SEAL" and let it dry in both open and closed positions, and the AXis never stopped assisting, or functioning, blade stayed honed, and cutting like a fresh sharp one.- rock of a knife.
A review from: Matthew Price Value Quality: Well the build quality is good but if you have working hands.the grips are terrible having dry hands working in the maintenance industry this knife is rather dangerous it is sharp and does hold an edge extremely well. But the plastic handles or scales feel like something you world expect to find on a 5 dollar walmart special. So build quality is excellent but if you work in machine or automotive maintenance.this is probably not the knife for you.if the handles were gripper I would absolutely love this knife and would have gave it a perfect review
A review from: john Price Value Quality: The Barrage is my second Benchmade ... I bought my first knife (Griptilian Serrated) in 2007 and admittedly hesitated at the price - at the time I had heard good things about Benchmade knifes so I felt comfortable I was getting a quality knife. Nine years later I still carry the knife EVERYDAY and it remains a rock solid knife.

The Barrage ... I bought this knife in the Spring (2016) specifically for hunting this fall so I haven't had a chance to use it (however, this fall I will be using it to dress out an elk ;-) )

I decided to do a "custom build" with a serrated edge, orange handles and custom laser etching ... the quality and design of this knife is outstanding! Part of my decision was that this knife is USA made (over the last few years I make a point of looking for / buying USA made products only). I can see myself buying another knife in the future and I have been eyeing the Nestucca. The $$$ are a little higher than many knifes out there, but you are getting a high quality knife ... well worth he investment!!!
A review from: Lawrence Value Quality Price: This is the first time I have ever purchased a knife over $30 bucks and I love it just putting this knife in your hand you can feel the quality and workmanship and time they put into this knife lock up is tight love the lock on the blade and handle is tough blade holds sharp after many uses and holds the point very strong wow wow wow would recommend this knife to anyone that is looking to spend a little extra and spoil them selfs or others.
A review from: David Value Quality Price: I purchased the mini-barrage for myself and liked it so much that I also bought one for my son. The quality and design of this knife is outstanding! You folks really do build a fantastic knife. Part of that for me in addition to being such great knives is the fact that they are USA made. That seals the deal for me. I have also purchased Benchmade knives as gifts for friends and they too have loved them. I can see myself buying more in the future and I have really been eyeballing your Saddle Mountain Skinner. That looks like the perfect hunting knife. Not too big but big enough.
A review from: christopher Value Quality Price: Bought this knife as an EDC, and its also my first high quality knife. Weather I'm at home, at work (construction) or on a call (fire/rescue captain) this knife is a tank
A review from: John Value Quality Price: Where to start? I've previously owned a high quality Benchmade knife before. That model was an Elishewitz, I believe it was a 905, but I can't recall as it was so long ago. At the time, I was working in Armed Security and wanted a quality pockete knife, something I could depend on if the situation required it. At that time, I had already owned some other nice knives, mostly from Cold Steel. I fell in love with the Elishewitz knife. It was such a high quality knife that I eventually sold my Cold Steel knife.

Sadly, I was parted with the knife as I had it with me on a vacation. I had unknowingly broken the law by carrying the knife over the border to Mexico. Of course, as it was illegal, the knife was taken from me and never returned. Honestly though, I got off easy, things could have been far worse, so losing the knife was perfectly acceptable. Sadly though, I had forgotten completely what the knife type was, so was unable to remember so that I could find a replacement in that time frame, so I never managed to get one to replace it.

Thankfully however, I finally found out the major mistake I had been making while searching for the knife and found my way back to Benchmade to replace it, but of course, as it has been over ten years since losing my original knife, I was too late to find an exact model like my last knife. It was at this time that I decided to replace it with a newer model knife, and decided that from the list of knives on this site, this model was the one that would make me recover from the loss of the original. Boy was I right. This knife is amazing. The build quality is top notch. The blade is perfectly centered and sharp. The material isn't heavy, it just exudes quality.

If your looking for a quality knife, this would be a highly recommended option. Benchmade knives are always superb. The price is great, considering that your buying an American knife and not something made overseas. If your interested in learning more, there are a few video's on YouTube that show the knife in action.

Just know, this knife is an assisted knife. There are states within the United States that make this type of knife illegal. Make sure before you order this knife that there are no laws preventing legal ownership in your neck of the woods.
A review from: Robert Value Quality Price: I got my Barrage custom made on the Benchmade Custom site. I love this knife. I have all the bells and whistles on it and it opens as fast as an automatic. It is some kind of beautiful and ordered with the S30V blade. Came razor sharp and the laser engraving was perfect. My name on one side and my badge on the other, makes for a knife I will pass down to my son. If you haven't tried the custom knife maker, you owe it to your self. As always, Benchmade is the highest quality in the world and the customer service staff is fantastic.
A review from: Philip Quality Price Value: I had this knife throughout my Naval career and it has served me well. Unfortunately I had lost it overboard fishing in my kayak!Hooked on to a fish and forgot it was in my lap (one very expensive fish). Anyways during the 5 years I had it, it never failed once. No issues what so ever. I loved the assist on it, always was very smooth and didn't have any problems. For a every day carry I highly recommend the barrage, the quality is outstanding and for the price it's very well worth it.
A review from: Randall Price Value Quality: I had to replace a lost benchmade and went with the barrage due to the assisted action. Have never regretted this purchase. I've used it for multi tasks at the office, weekends, camping, hiking, etc. etc. Its my EDC. Somewhat large for suit pants, but I am ok with that and should I ever need it to do anything more than cutting inanimate objects, I know it is a tradeoff I'll never regret. Full confidence in this brand and this model. Recently, I lost one of the screws holding on the clip. I contacted support on how to purchase replacements, and was shocked at their offer to immediately ship me a set at zero cost. Try that with a china made product! Benchmade stands behind their product.
A review from: John Price Value Quality: I was unsure about purchasing this knife, the price put me off I'll be completely honest. In my line of work I need a good dependable quality knife; but $100+ for a knife all I could think was that is ridiculous. Spoke with friends and people in the industry and read a lot of reviews and videos on Benchmade and I couldn't find a negative one, even better it's a USA product and I know US products are a little more but the quality is better than overseas crap. So I broke down and purchased this assist knife.

Well let me tell you this knife blew my socks off. The quality of the blade, handle, spring, safety and release are unmatched with anything that I have owned or handled (from Gerber to Kershaw to Ontario to SOG). The spring action on this knife is super strong and fast. The safety is easy access as well as the release to be able to fold the blade away. Not to mention the knife is just bad A looking. The detail in the knife is great, the feel of the knife in my hand is better feel than any other knife I have owned or used in my life so far. I was going to give price only 4 stars originally but the more I thought about it, but in honesty I think the price is just right for the quality, detail and design that this knife brings. Benchmade definitely just earned a lifelong customer, as I write this I'm deciding on the hunting knife and Auto knife that I am buying....

Bottom line if you want a top quality spring assist knife, buy this and you wont regret it!
A review from: Lester Price Value Quality: I have a Gerber sv03 very good knife but when I was introduced to the Benchmade knives and being there made in the USA is a plus I use this knife for everyday use as my EDC also and I will use it for a steak once in awhile couldn't believe the quality so much attention to detail and the warranty is great am and all a very well rounded untility self defense and EDC knife thank you Benchmade for making such a great product and please do not sell out to other countries like gerber keep it in the USA and I will continue to buy your products
A review from: Nikk Value Quality Price: I received this knife as a gift about five years ago and I've never looked back. I've come to expect a certain level of quality from Benchmade, as my father has carried them for decades, and this surpassed even my expectations. The assisted opening is as quick as any automatic I've ever seen and the blade holds it's edge exceptionally well, but if you do have to send it in for sharpening then it will be returned promptly and it'll be as sharp as the day you take it out of the box. I hardly ever go anywhere without my Barrage and I'd recommend it to anyone.
A review from: Warren Price Value Quality: I have had more pocket knives throughout the years than I could possibly ever count. One or two really good knives, a couple dozen average ones, and then a bunch of end of the counter knives. The $5-$10 impulse buys next to the checkout stand at most any convenience store. It was not until I held this kind if in my hand for the first time that I knew it was far superior to anything I've owned in the past by far. I could tell by the packaging alone. It was in a box which contained a small black drawstring bag then surrounded by hard foam.
Once unveiled it was beautiful, the craftsmanship was apparent it had a nice heafty weight a thick rigid blade. When buying a knife it's could only be compared to racing a bicycle and a jet plane. Not even close.
Do yourself a favor and save for what you want instead or dealing with what you can easily afford.
A review from: Daniel Price Value Quality: I've owned this knife for a few months now and I would highly recommend it to any knife enthusiast. I ordered mine with a Tanto blade option and my only complaint is the difficulty in sharpening by hand (Benchmade does offer to sharpen the blade). The clip is very low profile and has not snagged on anything, and I do carry it everyday. The spring assist is very responsive but safe. Overall I am extremely satisfied and am looking forward to my next purchase.
