Best flipper - I'll explain why

Best flipper - I'll explain why
This knife is perfect if you do a few things to tweak it.1. Adjust the pivot so it is really loose2. Add high quality gun oil to the round part of the blade that contacts the axis lock ( flip 10 times)3. Use a rag or paper towel wipe off the excess4. Tighten the pivot til there is no noticeable blade play.********5. Instead of touching the flipper and trying to make it work - put your finger on the frame above the flipper right on top of the frame above the stop pin , press and build up some pressure and slide your finger down the frame and through the flipper and it works like a charm

5.0 out of 5 stars Great every day knife.
Reviewed in the United States on February 14, 2015
Verified Purchase
Really great knife albeit a little pricy, but Benchmade is a premium brand so I knew what I was getting into. The handle is a little on the thick side to hit the thumb studs, but the "flipper" negates the need for the use of the thumb studs. The finger grooves plus the flipper give a very sure grip on the knife when opened, and I even have a good grip in a gloved hand(tight fitting leather glove). The deep carry clip is not as deep as some others and a small amount of the handle is still exposed but I am not really trying to hide this knife so it was not a big issue. The picture on Amazon does NOT do the handle justice, it really looks a lot different if you look up a video on Youtube or see on in person. Very solid and heavy folding knife, I would definitely purchase again.

Great knife very sharp out of box had good handle ergonomics. Now a lot of ppl on here talk about flipping action well one I have flips out very smooth and locks up solid. I have been around knifes for years and used them professionally in the military and yes I served a long time 15 yrs..... and there is nothing wrong with the flippers action ppl that complain must be use to assist open or don't know how to properly use a knife like this. I'm satisfied it's solid has a good blade steel and for my use perfect. So if you want a quality well built knife that rides low in pocket and performs like Benchmade knifes should buy this knife.

Hate to rain on everyone's parade. But to each his own. Just got this tonight and it's on it's way back. For the price my view, and I collect knives is this one is to short, thick, heavy adn the scales to rough. They are really rough and seem to grab at your pocket as you slide it in. It is a tank. It does look nice. I have med to large hands and I can't get a comfortable grip on this to save my life. I was so disappoined.
Had such high hopes but the second I felt it I knew I did not like it. Not sure if maybe the scales were damaged on mine or not. Blade is short but I knew that going into it. It's the handle that I really dislike. If it did not have the finger grooves I might have kept it. I'm not a big guy, 5-9 170, so it's not that I'm a giant by any means. I wear a large or size 9 or 10 glove. This knife is also very heavy and bulky for EDC. And it's a small knife... blade and handle wise. So much heft for such a small knife. To thick, it shows in your pocket, it really prints. If I had paid 80 bucks I might have kept it. Some may love it and I'm glad, sounds like a lot of you do:-) I just ordered the 940 Osborne, the one I really wanted but this one had such great reviews. AMAZON... EXCELLENT as ALWAYS. 2 to 3 days faster than was noted. I LOVE AMAZON:-) Enjoy your Axis Flipper if you like it. Can't go wrong with any Benchmade, we all have different taste and needs... and that is good.

ALSO.... you might want to pay attension to the actual seller address. If you return an item it can get costly. I would not use this seller again. They are in NY and I'm in CA. My bad this time. I feel the knife is defective but I have to pay for all the shipping to and from???? Not cool. This seller charges you for th eoriginal shipping fee even if it was stated as being FREE. Be careful of the fine print. I'm fine with one way but not both.

1.0 out of 5 stars Poor quality, disappointed
Reviewed in the United States on April 28, 2017
Verified Purchase
I was very excited to buy this knife for myself as a birthday present. Definitely a higher end knife for me that would be nice to own, play with and use. When I received the knife, the flipper action wasn't as smooth as I would have thought, but it was ok. Then I noticed the side to side play of the blade. It was very loose. Unacceptably loose for a knife that cost this much money. When I got home I tightened the hex screw, which fixed the side to side play, but destroyed the ability to flip it open or use the axis lock to open it. Really too bad, because it is a nice looking blade. Disappointed in Benchmade's lack of quality.

Not impressed. The holes for the pocket clip were not tapped to be swapped for left handed users. The knife out of the box was not very sharp. The blade was not centered in the knife when closed.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good knife, but doesn't cut well
Reviewed in the United States on October 14, 2014
Verified Purchase
Good knife, but doesn't cut well. I have used this knife to cut old inflatable rubber sponsons and the shape of the blade lacks cutting ability. The knife is rugged as hell(typical tough made Benchmade). But the style of the blade is not the best when using this knife as a work knife, that is unless you are just stabbing or thrusting holes into something. I found the knife to be more then cable as an everyday carry, but it is rather heavy. The knife is a lot thicker then I imagined and it has a really good grip. The problem with that is the handle scales are super grippy and can be overly course at times. The pocket clip allows the knife to ride low in your pocket, but being chrome in color it draws attention, and can at times hinder your ability to draw the knife quickly from your pocket. I also am noting that I had to use a dab of lock tight to secure the main pivot screw, which kept getting looser with more use. After fixing said problem it has performed swimmingly, however I expected way better from Benchmade. Oh yeah, I own over 40 different models from Benchmade so I consider myself a bit of a Benchmade enthusiast. If you need a better work knife I recommend checking out the Presidio. I have all but abused it and it keeps going.

I would pit this knife up against any assisted or full auto knife anywhere! The knife is extremely well made - very smooth action. Open and close easily with one hand (right or left). Flip action is blazing fast with a solid click when it hits home and locks. The lock... Well you'll never ever have to worry about this knife closing on you. Handle is made to fit great regardless of the grip style you use. The pocket clip works amazingly well and even enhances the grip (its reversible). The only caution I have is to use some thread lock on the clip screws once you figure out how you want it mounted - and to be fair I use it on all my knives. I'm actual a hard core fixed blade man myself but I love this knife and carry it every day (along with my fixed blade)!!

Can't go wrong with this knife!!!
