Benchmade 319 Proper - Review After 2 Years Of Use (4K) 

Thanks, thats awesome! Have fun using it, definately a great knife to kick of your slipjoint collection! :)

Thanks for the kind words, I'm glad you liked it! :)

thanks man! Means a lot!

Just found out that it's discontinued, lost my proper a couple of weeks back. But luckily found it deep in the sofa the other day 😂. I was deep in mourning over its loss.

thanks man! Appreciate it :)

Thanks man! Glad you like it :)

Awesome choice, and thanks! I got the Bugout 535 GRY-1. Love the knife, but its not legal to carry where I live. I hope benchmade will expand their line of slipjoint knives in the future. The 319 certainly was a great first try!

I think its a great slipjoint, even though a lot of people seem to hate it. If I'd lose it today I would buy it again in a heart beat.

@@TobisTings People just nit pick at small things today and expect everything to be perfect. I'm not gonna cry about the slip strength being weak like a few people have pointed out simply because it's not the type of knife you pry with and stuff. As long as you use it right it's fine. Definitely gonna pick one up when my taxes come in.

Gerald Burns Couldn't agree more! Awesome, I hope you will get a ton of good use out of it! :)

Thanks! :)

thanks man :)

yeah ergos are always subjective and could be improved on this one. Sounds like an awesome project though. Personally I like the softness of the steel. Not too soft, easy to resharpen and not prone to chipping. But again, that's just personal preference ;)

M390 at 56hrc is not better than s30v at 60hrc

You are absolutely right! Just looked it up to make sure. Completely missed that. Thanks man!

Stay tuned! :)

That is a cool color

Yes, got plans for doing that already. Don't know when exactly, but its coming!

That's a tough one! The Lionsteel is (imo) the better looking and the better performing knife overall. However, I much prefer Benchmades S30V steel over Lionsteels M390. The benchmade is fairly easy to resharpen and in my experience holds an edge better. The edge retention on the M390 is a pain to sharpen. So unless you are really good at sharpening your knives and have a sophisticated sharpening system I'd probably recommend the Proper. Also the Proper can be fully disassembled for cleaning and maintenance, so it might just be the better choice in the long run. ... or you could just get both 😅🤷🏼‍♂️

big deal, america is not so great you know
