Joe Karp replied to James R. Lucier's discussion Benchmade SERVICE in the group Benchmade Addicts"Sounds good Jim,
I sent my 710-1, 16/250, up for warranty repair for liner replacements to address small dings found right out of the box, and they not only replaced them, the liners were polished and jewelled; then all screws, pivot bolt and clip…"
Joe Karp commented on Keelen Grimm's group Benchmade Addicts"Bjorn; it is hard to learn about Benchmades sometimes. What I will suggest is going to the the company site: www.Benchmadeforum.com and sign in, there is a lot to learn and as nice a bunch of people as are here on Knifecollector, only more…"
Joe Karp commented on Keelen Grimm's group Benchmade Addicts"Good news Bjorn. I suggest folks that favor Benchmades spend a little time on their site, and get to know the products; and any time you and I see a knife advertised as a Benchmade for $20 it's too good to be true. Even the beat up originals go…"
Joe Karp replied to Keelen Grimm's discussion Benchmade Barrage: Assisted or Auto? in the group Benchmade Addicts"Going back to this older post, I don't think that's the way it's turned out. Assisted knives are more popular than ever, from the A/O Axis models to the 'Outburst' and others, the trend is moving rapidly in favor of these…"
Joe Karp commented on Keelen Grimm's group Benchmade Addicts"Hi Bjorn,
That's not real, it's a Chinese facsimile. Benchmade did not make that knife. Hope it didn't cost you much ca$h.

Joe Karp replied to James R. Lucier's discussion Benchmade SERVICE in the group Benchmade Addicts"Sounds good Jim, Benchmade's customer service is the best anywhere around. Nolan is one of my favorite people to deal with up there. I have a number of knives that went up for servicing that came back with parts, blades, and…"
Joe Karp replied to Richard Reed's discussion Whats Your Favorite Benchmade Knife for EDC ? in the group Benchmade Addicts"Congrats Jim, the 581 is a nice knife...welcome to the Benchmade addiction!"
Joe Karp replied to Chris Stookey's discussion Benchmade Knife Reviews in the group Benchmade Addicts"Nice review Chris, the 707 is a great knife in a smaller package!"
Joe Karp commented on Keelen Grimm's group Benchmade Addicts"Thanks Jeremy, the CE Stryker's a 910SCG, very rare. If your life was in jeopardy again I'd toss this one at you in a heartbeat. Have a good one!

Joe Karp commented on Keelen Grimm's group Benchmade Addicts"I like the 910S to the right. I've always been a fan of Tanto blades...here's a pic of my selection:

Nice selection Jeremy, the JuJu is a hard…"
Joe Karp replied to Scott King's discussion Welcome- New iKnifeCollector members"Welcome Andy. I started off with a Buck 110 in the Scouts. I wonder just how many of us started their knife hobby with a Buck knife. Cheers, Joe"
Joe Karp replied to Richard Reed's discussion Whats Your Favorite Benchmade Knife for EDC ? in the group Benchmade Addicts"Quiet over here. Today it's my 580-1102 Barrage with the M390 blade. Absolutely great knife, here's…"
Joe Karp replied to Chris Stookey's discussion Benchmade Knife Reviews in the group Benchmade Addicts"Nice review Chris. The Alias models are worth their weight and are amazing knives. And the fact that Benchmade makes them is even sweeter...need servicing or LifeSharp? They're fully covered."
Joe Karp replied to Russ Brown's discussion Gold Collectors (Discuss, buy sell & trade) in the group Benchmade Addicts"Hi Russ,
Thanks for your reply - as far as these two sites being connected I'd guess THE thing that does is our passion for our Benchmades.
I hope to one day get up to Orggon City. I get the feeling i'm far from the only one…"
