What do you all think of this one?

My question is about the lock: How secure is it and how would it compare to the slide-locks on similiar knives from other companies? I'm sure Benchmade makes sure it is very secure.

  Just by looking at the pictures and specs. Benchmade should have quality build their knives. I wouldn't worry about its action.

  The button seems like a pyramid. It maybe a little bit high(pointy?).  I prefer non coated blade and also the handle material is not my choice.

  Somehow, BM OTF just doesn't catch my eyes (I hope it is just "yet"...)

  Not even a DLC Autocrat?

  I forgot to mentioned that I am not a double edge guy.

  

  The push button definitely looks nicer.

  

  Some of the OTF I felt they are not proportional between the blade and handle. The autocrat is fine.

  I don't want to hold a big handle and once I shoot out the blade and people say, wow such a small tiny dxx.
