FUKKEN AWESOME- BENCHMADE AFO FOR CHRISTMAS

[bacon ops]

Well, I didn't get it, but my dad did.
This thing kicks so much ass.



Too bad I can't carry it here in TX. :C


I think I'll carry this bad boy in Russia though, for utility purposes, such as cutting apples and oranges only.

Why cant you carry that in TX.

Seems like you could carry a 4 foot folder in Texas.

it's an automatic.

Yeah, our laws allow for 5.5" blades.

Good luck finding a cop who won't hassle you and tell you you can't carry a knife longer than "palm of your hand/driver's license/etc..."

That's awesome! I love my benchmade.

Cops are stupid. I think those that enforce the law should know it.

What I think is even more ridiculous, is that I can walk around with a .45acp pistol in my waistband, and it's legal.

but if I slip a little knife with a spring in its lock into my pocket, it's illegal.

[crunker]

Automatic knives are neat and all, but I'm not sure that I like them, because no matter how much care you treat them with, their springs will degrade over time. IMO, a knife should be the simplest and most reliable tool of any uber1337 tacticool operator.

I've had my 9050 for almost five years now. Great knife, I carried it quite a bit before getting a M16-14ZSF for a beater. Sitting in my truck as I type this.

Yeah, I think I will only carry this knife while I'm in Russia.


Switchblades in TX are still a no no.


I heard rumors that there's a grassroots movement stirring and shaking to make our CHLs more like Florida's, in that prohibited knives will be added to the license.

That would be nice. I carry my Benchmade occasionally because I can, since I am technically on duty 24/7. Haven't seriously looked at any other autos though. With modern pocket folders, a flick of the wrist gives you a knife every bit as quick and convenient as an automatic.
