\"The<\/a>

The 490 Amicus, new from Benchmade.<\/p><\/div>\n

I have a confession to make. I don\u2019t own a Benchmade<\/a> knife. It\u2019s not because I don\u2019t like them, it\u2019s just a matter of resources and my minimalist mindset. I have only so much money in my bank account and I like to avoid redundancy. Yes, sure, have a backup knife, but avoid a collection. Why? Well, why have stuff that you\u2019re never going to use? Why do I need 10 or 12 pocket knives when two or three will serve me just fine?<\/p>\n

That\u2019s a conversation for a different day. What I mean to say is that my status as a non-Benchmade owner just might change. At SHOT Show 2016 I had the opportunity to pick up and hold the new 490 Amicus<\/a>. To say I was impressed, well, that\u2019s an understatement.<\/p>\n

\"Not<\/a>

Not a bad looking knife, right? \u00a0I love the lines of it. \u00a0Sleek and tactical!<\/p><\/div>\n

The company pitch for the 490 is \u201cthe speed and function of AXIS Assist, the convenience of a flipper.\u201d It\u2019s a pretty good pitch because, well, it\u2019s true. The 490 is a solidly built, drop-point blade that deploys with a simple touch of the flipper \u2014 on the spine of the handle \u2014 thanks to Benchmade\u2019s assisted mechanism known as AXIS Assist. It\u2019s super easy to use (none of the fumbling, difficulty or pain that I experience using a thumb stud), and it locks firmly into place thanks to the integrated safety.<\/p>\n

The steel of the blade is CPM-S90V, a premium stainless, with a 59-61 HRC. Handles are black anodized 7075 T-6 aluminum. It comes with a reversible tip-up deep-carry pocket clip. In short, it\u2019s constructed from strong materials and is perfectly suited for every day carry.<\/p>\n

You can get a sense of how the knife fits in one’s hand. It’s ergonomically sound.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"I'm<\/a>

I’m a big fan of the drop-point style blade.<\/p><\/div>\n

Specs:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Blade Length: 3.25\u201d
\nBlade Thickness: .090\u201d
\nOpen: 7.77\u201d
\nClosed: 4.52\u201d
\nWeight: 2.88oz.
\nHandle Thickness: .48\u201d
\nMSRP: $250<\/p>\n

For someone like myself who carries an automatic, the 490 is a great option because it opens almost as fast and is not as widely banned as autos. See, I can\u2019t bring my auto back to my home state of New York. In Kentucky, where I currently live, an auto is perfectly legal. But in the home of Bloomberg, well, automatic knives are prohibited unless one is hunting, fishing or trapping with a requisite license. The 490 would be a perfect go-to for trips back to the Empire State.<\/p>\n

With a retail price point of $250, the 490 Amicus is at the higher end of the folder market (without considering the various customs that are out there). Is it worth the money? Well, I hope to have one in soon for a review to definitively answer that question. But solely based on Benchmade\u2019s reputation, and from what I saw and what I felt at SHOT Show 2016, it sure seemed like a good buy.<\/p>\n
