The Benchmade 940-2 Osborne G10 Plain Blade is one of Benchmade's quintessential folding knives and a really popular model.
The Benchmade Osborne 940 features the AXIS locking mechanism which is one of the safest on the market. The blade is a reverse tanto style with ambidextrous thumb studs and is CPM S30V stainless steel.
The handle is the tough and very functional G10 with stainless steel liners and a green anodized Titanium backspacer.
Real quality - real class.

The steel is incredibly smooth and i did not expect such a small knife to pack such power and stay straight, very impressed so far

Waiting for this one to complete my 940 collection and not disappointed, super smooth g10 scales no sharp edges at all apart from the working bit, the green looks superb on and smooth as silk opening but this is why you buy them. God bless Benchmade

Hard to comment and dodge getting tangled in all the soc med hype yadda, yadda. Start with Heinnies - customer for decades and love them - service level is off the scale - that matters.The knife - the world and their dog hype this knife and its hard to strip that out of making an objective decision that suits you. I have professional need of a blade that will be carried multiple 12hour shifts a week, 365. Must work and must be discrete. A Spyderco has been in that place for yonks and frankly there was nothing wrong with it at all. But me too for that Soc Med hyoe getting in your brain! So made up excuse I wanted a slimmer blade depth and tad more length. Agonised because by any standard its a chunk of money - loads of argument that Benchmade generally over priced and I think there is a point in that. BUT... there is a lot of tat out there and expensive tat too! This knife is not tat - so that is a start! Just re-edited this review and vastly shortened. Bit of a cold sweat at the outlay and much over thinking. Packaging on a £180 knife was underwhelming ( does it matter? ) , so mind still disquietened - until I opened it! Impossible to put that sound into a phrase or word - but it was the right sound. I needed no further analysis - blade steel, configuration, handle material, locking mechanism, can you deploy it with a uber cool flick - all that 'gonads'... irrelevant really for 99% of us users rather than knife geeks. But the 'snick' on opening and bank vault solid lock up - instant relief. You'll either know or you wont. But it speaks about everything and it speaks good! Rate it there with a slicked up Browning Hi-Power slamming into battery - but snake hiss more subtle.So, ends up biggest downside is for those ( like me ) that get turned off by hype.For me, it fits the bill and I ve had it all of two hours :-)And back to the start - support good traders with £ spending or we risk losing them - Heinnies are top of the tree.
