Benchmade has awesome customer service. My son, a guy I work with, and I threw our Benchmades in a box on Monday to go back for Lifesharp. Of course we all have backups until the primaries come back again

I have a small scar on my left thumb from a Mini-Grip pocket reach, and another tiny scar on my right ring finger from the first meal I made with a set of Wusthof Classic cooking knives I got around the same time as my Mini-Grip. I'd only ever owned cheap knives and I had no appreciation for how effortlessly sharp high quality steel can cut. There's a Stephen King quote I read a few months ago in a short story collection that made me smile ruefully and rub my thumb's scar, a quote quite analogous to firearms safety: "You use the knife carefully, because you know it doesn't care who it cuts."

Second all above--great service. They will also send you replacement pocket clips--highly recommend the deep carry clip from the 555-1, if you are Mini grip user. I mentioned in another thread (crappy pic below at link) that Benchmade agreed to add their G10 grips to my previously purchased custom S30V minigrip, which weren't available when I placed my original order. They aren't cheap, but are much nicer than the originals, and cheaper than some of the aftermarket options (and do not void warranty). They touched up the edge while they had it, and it is wicked sharp now. Only thing I'd note is that Benchmade does not sharpen serrations, per its website (Spyderco will under its warranty).

I'm clearly a big fan of the 810, probably my favorite Benchmade. Love the ergos, fits me perfectly. The M4 is excellent steel, holds a nice edge for a good long while, and isn't a complete PIA to sharpen; I'd love to see more of it in their catalog.

Ha!
Actually I have carried the Mini Grip every day since you sent it. I ended up Karma-ing out my regular size Griptilian to another forum member.
On a serious note, thanks so much for this random act of kindness. What I think is really cool is that it created a culture of sharing here, and there is now a Karma section of the forum to support it.

Technical question for you guys: Any issues in using some blue loctite on the three clip mounting torx screws?
My clip is kind of coming loose from time to time...I was thinking since I had the blue loctite, just a bit on each would set them in place more.
Thoughts?
