]]> Comment on Benchmade Folding Knives for Everyday Carry (2026) by granny https://blog.knife-depot.com/benchmade-folding-knives-for-everyday-carry/#comment-598201 Thu, 12 Nov 2026 07:14:00 +0000 https://blog.knife-depot.com/benchmade-folding-knives-for-everyday-carry/#comment-598201 The design of the non-locking slipjoint is right. The blade is 2.82 inches (7.16 cm) long, not 2.49 inches as some say. The handle material varies by model. For example, the standard 318 doesn’t use stainless steel, but Canvas Micarta or G10. More importantly, there is no guaranty that a pocket knife will work with the TSA. TSA rules say that knives with locking blades are not allowed, but agents can use their own judgment and still flag a slipjoint. “Legal in every office building” is also too broad; many government and office buildings don’t allow any kind of knife, even ones with locks.

There are real, observable differences between a longer listed blade and a different steel in a similarly sized closed package. However, edge geometry, heat treatment, lock/ergonomics, and the task itself still determine performance.

Do you think the price difference between the Livewire and the Infidel is fully justified by the CPM MagnaCut steel?

It makes me wonder whether rust resistance matters more than edge retention for most EDC fixed blades, given how often they’re carried close to the body and used for light tasks rather than heavy cutting.

That makes me wonder whether the trade-off in edge retention versus a harder stainless steel is noticeable in everyday tasks like breaking down boxes or cutting cord.

It’s funny how both fields keep pushing materials to their absolute limits, just in completely different ways.

The budget range is also a nice reminder that you don’t need to spend a lot to give something functional and lasting.

]]> Comment on Spyderco vs Benchmade: Which Brand Is Better? (2026) by Jason https://blog.knife-depot.com/spyderco-vs-benchmade-which-brand-is-better/#comment-597120 Mon, 09 Nov 2026 05:40:50 +0000 https://blog.knife-depot.com/spyderco-vs-benchmade-which-brand-is-better/#comment-597120 In reply to Heic Converter.

It is strange how many different models from Benchmade and Spyderco this comparison just completely overlooked.

Spyderco has a bunch of different lock mechanisms, not just the compression lock. In addition to the compression lock, they have button locks, back locks, and a lock that is very similar looking to the Benchmade lock but much stronger that I think they call a bearing lock.

Spyderco also has far more steels than mentioned here. This comparison did not even mention Magnacut or Cruwear, which are some of Spyderco’s most popular steels. I am pretty sure that benchmade has offerings in these steels as well. Spyderco probably has about a dozen more beyond these, and they have probably three to four times as many as Benchmade does.

Some things claimed in this article do not really even make sense. Both Spyderco and Benchmade make slim-profile knives as well as much larger and beefier knives. It does not matter if you are an office worker or a hiker, those companies will have something that is appropriate for your use. Personally, I work in industrial construction and I carry a Spyderco Shaman Salt In MagnaCut steel with all rustproof hardware, because my work knife is sometimes exposed to oxidizing acids.

Benchmade has more automatic knives and I am not sure if Spyderco has any, but other than that Spyderco is a far better knife manufacturer in my opinion. They are better quality with a lower price tag and far more steel options. I currently only own one Benchmade and I have about 12 Spyderco knives…

The slim profile and reversible thumb stud make it super practical for lightweight EDC.
