Over priced compared to what?


Spyderco.
Buck
????

the reality is its a pocket knife that has a high probability of getting lost or broken.
The designs seemed nice with good steels, but its not worth the 2-3X premium to me.

If you're going to cut alot on the job... you're going to use a razor blade knife anyways and not waste YOUR time at home sharpening your knife.



Well Buck is junk. But Spydeco is quality. Have you compared apples to apples? Because Spyderco and Benchmade run pretty even price wise. I get the feeling you are comparing apples to oranges. I use a knife everyday at work, From scraping ProSeal, to stripping wires, to whittling wood formers. I sharpen my knife on the job when needed, Not a big deal. Your comments are not realistic. You go from talking about knives to a $1,500,000 pickup. Focus here and bring it back to reality. If you want to use a utility knife or razor blade so be it. But you make a comment that Benchmade is over priced with zero backing evidence. I question you compared to what and you list two brands. One that is worth comparing and the other not. Yet the one you choose to compare it to that is worth comparing is in the same price points. Seems to me you just want to be a squeaky wheel.
