Re: Spyderco or Benchmade...?
Ok your getting advice from benchmadeboy (keep in mind his name) that benchmades are better, possible benchmade fan? Maybe, lol, and advice from rycen (who has the spyderco logo as an avatar (again possible spyderco fan) maybe justa bit...so these responses are biassed...Don't get me wrong these guys love their brands and are faithfull to them and both have their own opinions on what are good useful knives and that is great! But I believe your original question was who has a better reputation for quality, and the answer is both equally, there are just as many benchmade fans who will back up their company as there are spyderco fans and all of them will tell you that customer service and quality control is top notch in both companies...SO, if your thinking about buying a new knife from one of these companies go with whatever you like more as far as designs go...
kitelights post said it all, I am just agreeing with the post...By the way guys (benchmadeboy and rycen, not trying to single anyone out or critizize, just trying to make a point, nothing personal)
by the way benchmadeboy, I love both companies equally but I have to say that I EDC bechmades as well as spydercos and I love my Endura 4, no its not very "normal" looking as you put it, but it does perform just as well if not better than many other knives in its class...so spydercos are practical...at least some of the designs are!
Now........................If we were talking about balisongs (butterfly knives) then benchmade blows spyderco out of the water, lol, but thats another story....:laughing:
