DLT Service
Thanksgiving for your excellent service. I bought a Benchmade knife for my uncle for his birthday. Paul took the order and shipped it out on the same day, Thursday. My uncle received it on Saturday, his birthday. Thanks for selling American products and providing fast courteous service! Your website is easy to use, too. Patrick

These are perfect upgrades to
These are perfect upgrades to the venerable Griptilian. I lost my older black one and decided to get this new version, very happy with it. Cosmetically its an improvement as well but thats sort of minor in the grand scheme of things.

I really like it but....
I bought my first Griptilian about a year ago because it seemed many people liked it. However, I was very underwhelmed by the handle. I looked into upgrading the handle, but it essentially doubled the price of the knife, and I did feel it was worth it. As I used it I really liked it, but I couldn't get past the cheap feel of the scales.

new Griptilian with G-10 scales AND the upgraded steel. The price seemed a bit high, but close to comparble knives.
The knife is definitely an upgrade compared to the older knife. It just feels more solid, without adding too much weight.
The only thing I find I don't like is the color of the grey scales. I feel like they are try to somehow copy the Sbenza. Grey G-10 just doesn't look as nice as titanium. I think black scales would have looked infinitely better. However, that's just my opinion on the aesthetics of the colors, and I did not factor that into my rating.
I would have given this knife 5 stars, but the price kept me from doing that. $20/30 less would have been perfect.
Amazing improvement over the standard 551!!
The standard 551 is a good knife. But the 551-1 is a great knife. The g10 scales are amazing, the blue liners and barrel spacers accent the knife and make it VERY visually appealing. The knife came drop free smooth and razor sharp out of box. Definitely a win! 5/5
