I found that exact knife in the road, got run over many times, I spend two weeks heating it up and prying it open with pliers. It works great now. My edc for 4 years.
I think Ruger has quality control consistency issues; my mini 30 would be so much more fun to shoot if it was consistent & accurate or at least more accurate. Some come off the line fine & some are lemons. I got a lemon.
Benchmade's primary focus when it first got started was the Bali-Song, or butterfly knife. The butterfly logo is representative of their focus on and success in the world of butterfly knives.
Camillus was the first company to get the contract to make the Mark 2 knife in WWII. And they made more of those knives than all the other companies that got contracts later. Union Cutlery changed their name to KaBar with a great marketing strategy that made them the predominant producer of Mark2 knives today but Camillus was the first.
I thought the 45 had a bigger drain. The 57 was good also. But for a charging beast. The 57 may have got you dead. The water just gushed out. Dropping pressure 45 style. The 5.7 may have took 10 minutes to end a creature. Looked good on paper.
Both are good knives and fit for hard use. That said, the Adamas has a crossbar lock that is a little bit too weak for the heavy blade. I get easily flick it open without using the lock.
People complain about the inaccuracy of 7.62x39 ammo... I have owned and shot bolt action guns in 7.62x39 that shot 1/2 inch or under 5 shot groups at 100 yards using cheap steel case ammo... Some of it they didn't like but honestly the majority of it shot excellent!
