A request for a new test

Ok all you Benchmader's

It's time to revive this forum and share some more testing.

I know, I know, you all are likely going flat out and then some getting ready for SHOT, but I should hope things calm down enough after the show to do a new test.

The one I would like to see would be the 761, lock strength testing in particular.

I am very curious how the frame lock compares to an Axis lock. I have my notions as to the result, but lack the facilities to test it myself.

Well, that and not wanting to destroy a knife I spent that much money on...

I'd like to see an 808 Loco test. I don't mean paracord and cardboard either. I'd like to see a test where somebody uses it to cut stuff like radiator hoses and snow fence. Or maybe some carpet or something.

I would like that, or tests where they cut pig carcasses.

I reckon in your neck of the woods, folks call it the orange fence put up around a music festival or around a temporary sports field.

No thank you, way too ghetto.

I would hate to see BMK lower themselves to the same level as Cold Steel and their make believe "tests".

Lightning I actually like Cold Steel tests. I like the crazy tests that they do. I like knowing that I can do pull ups on my knife and I can slice through ribs. I just like that better then here comes a seat belt being cut and more rope being cut and here is a mechanical press breaking the lock. Plus I think Benchmade would do better then Cold Steel and it would shut them up.

Here is a great clip of a cold steel blade failing.
