After much debate I decided to give in and buy the Benchmade 530. I was extremely surprised when I got it in the mail to find such a great knife inside that blue Benchmade box. The 530 never caught my eye I think because of its looks but after staring at it for a while it is quite a handsome knife. The design is simple but elegant and makes a great gentlemen’s folder but packs the punch of a full on tactical knife. The thinness of the knife is incredible. I carry it every day as and EDC and always forget that it is there. With 154cm blade steel the knife will stay sharp and hold an edge well. I am very impressed with this little knife from Benchmade and encourage all who want something different to check it out. Enjoy.
