Benchmade Rescue Hook

Recommended Posts

anyone here carry one or a similar benchmade product? I have a model 6 (the one with the green handle) that i carry and that sucker cuts through everything like butter...



I have the 7 and 8 rescue hook for work use,both are scary sharp. Benchmade is currently working on making a variation to the #8 based on the specifications that I provided to them. I should have a prototype as soon as it's ready.I have no doubts it will be as sharp as all of their other products.

I saw the #8 at a trade show in Malaysia. It seemed a little too small to get a good grip on. The sleeve needed some improvements too as it didn't release very smoothly.

All the other Benchmade knives are awesome though.



The revised version of the #8 they are working on for me will address some of the issues you mentioned. I look forward to seeing what they come up with.

Seems like that is problematical with most of BM's nylon sheaths (as opposed to the hard plastic - I have no experience with those ones).
