I recently came across a post that Benchmade has made political
contributions to an anti-2'nd amendment politician. This seems to be counter
intuitive to me. Your thoughts?

Thanks Terry, I have looked at this. I am getting pi**sed.


No problem here. I've got enough knives to open a cutlery store and none
of them are Benchmade. I have nothing against them but they are a little
pricey for EDC. A Randall filled my needs for a high ticket knife.


I have a Randall, but really like(d) the Benchmade line. I guess it is all
personal preference.


Looks like factory is in Oregon and senators there are dems. I guess it
is like Trump supporting Schumer when he was in New York to gain some
favor. They are a small company and I can't see where giving to any
politician except in area where they are directly located would benefit
them.

I'm knifed up too and have had most of them before this company got
started. My Buck knives used for hunting are quality knives as they
have held up all these years with good usage and ability to easily
restore a keen edge.
