It's a total wash for me. I got the PM2 first but the Benchmade has been every bit as impressive, and I'm now a True Believer in the Axis lock after being skeptical at first. They are #1 and #1a in my modern folder pile, and sometimes it comes down to the choice of saber grind vs. FFG to decide between the two.

It's that da%$ed axis lock that's to blame. It makes the knife into a play toy. I can't stop playing with them. It's too addictive... :lol:

Good looking knife there John.

Me, I'm just as boring and predictable as ever. Monday through Saturday the Spyderco Military. On Sunday I swap it out for the CASE Kickstart rough black. The Ruger 1911 commander size goes along 7 days a week.

That is a sweet looking Spyderco. For me, in the right front pocket, it's a Benchmade. In the left front pocket, it's a SOG. I may trade one out every so often, but never both at the same time. I always have at least one of these two ( plus a tactical pen) in my possession. :D

My current EDC rotation.

From top to bottom:

Spyderco Ambitious
Finch Runtly
Hogue Microswitch
Benchmade North Fork
Buck Pursuit Pro
Spyderco Para 3
ZT 0456
Buck 112


I'm not carrying a knife today, but the ZT 0456 will likely be tomorrow's carry.

Today I carried a Shamwari. If it’s not this, it’s a CRK or another lefty sham.
