Premium Taggedout Models Rip
Just got one of the G-10/S45V versions. Really stoked about it. Size of a Griptilian, weight of a Bugout. So slim and light. Good full hand grip. Thin blade, wide grind, scalpel sharp. Doubt I'll be carrying a Bugout much any more. Pisses me off cuz I just went through three different Spydercos looking for the perfect super lightweight EDC, and now here it is. Fantastic.

Hey Po! Its been a long time since we've seen you around in these thar parts brother!
Thanks for the info. I keep looking at them and have been really wanting to pull the trigger.
Hope to see you around more often!

I got one and just like you said. I almost switch my one of the regular EDC Bugout to this one. I would compare this to the mini CR. It is lighter version of it. But, where should I put the Narrow?

Thanks, guys. I saw these posts in the morning, then went out to the Ventura Farmer's Market. It just so happens there is a good knife store on the same street that carries, among others, Benchmades. Took a look at one of these and liked it. Thinner blade but a taller blade than my MiniCRs, and much lighter. Got the G10. VERY sharp.

Good to see you, Po!
looking forward to hearing what you, arc and the Duderino have to say after using those knives awhile.

Yep. Me too. I wanna know how well they stay sharp!

I just cut down some thick cardboard boxes (the blade flowed through them) and it's still razor sharp.

Great to see Po making a post!
I'm finishing some CR work, then moving to a couple Taggedouts. The CF/Magnacut looks like a great option, with the exception of slot vs thumb stud & the G10/S45VN is a great start for customizing

I picked up the new Orange/Carbon Fiber model. I wasn't sure about SelectEdge for daily carry. This version is CPM Magnacut, so we'll see how the edge holds up.

SelectEdge to me is just a gimmic. It is not practical "upgrade" or "improvement".
How long the edge will last from factory? It won't last once you are sharpening the blade yourself.

/|\ Agreed once I re-sharpen it’ll be called de-selective.
I’m not a fan of coated blades but orange is on bottom of the list.
If you want to see your knife if dropped in the woods use blue handles & glow bead for night hunting Snipes.😉

Yeah, I got two 15536 but I didn't get the fiber one because of the coated blade.

And that's what I love about Benchmade. A seat for every butt!

Ordered the 15535OR-01. Thought it would be worth checking out.
