If I needed a hard use knife, or some kind of SHTF knife I wouldn't be grabbing them. Also despite the problems I think they are great collectable knives. I will never own another Benchmade knife.ĭespite the problems the price has increased for all of the models, they can be found for original retail but rarely. They said they can sharpen it but they won't be able to ship it back to me because it's auto, wether I was LE or not. I asked about lifetime warranty and the guy just said sorry. I told them it was not an old LW it was BM but they repeated they can't help. I called them and they refused to fix it saying they didn't have the machinery to fix old Lone Wolf knives. I have all of the Paul models I think, and a few of the BM ones. Benchmade released a few runs of the defender and Prankster. These were also very nice but if the button lock became loose it was problematic to fix. The Paul Defender, Panther, Prankster, Presto, Executive.
Very nice F&F and super sharp like a Spyderco. They are well made and again fire harder than most autos. I have almost all of these and the have the sliding scale release. Diablo, Lobo, Double Duty, Double Duty warrior.

Benchmade made the 3800NTK which was their version of the D2, but never released it because of the defect.īesides the Harsey series there was some other really nice autos. It was also defective though, if it was manually opened the auto spring could still be fired sometimes breaking and rendering the knife uncloseable. The D2 was/is a f-en hard firing auto, it put's bench made and Protech and Microtech to shame IMO (I haven't seen all Microtechs or Protechs or BM's but better than the ones I have had). I own 3 T3's and 1 of them is defective and will close with light pressure, so not good for a fighting knife at all. At the time it was made, early 2000's the T3 was thought of as a heavy duty Tactical folder, it had a thicker than normal liner lock, but compared to Tactical frame locks like Strider or XM's it was wimpy. The Harsey's are beautiful Double actions and regular linerlock folder. They were known for the Harsey T and D series. Lone Wolf made awesome knives in the USA.
