Great Knife

This was a birthday gift for my son. He has wanted this knife for a while now. He loves the green color. It operates smoothly. He absolutely loves it!

All purpose

As a slight knife enthusiast, this knife ranks at the top as a must-have for anyone who appreciates the value of having a good knife that's practical in all situations. This knife is a modern timeless classic designed by the late great Warren Osborne and will not let you down. If you're thinking about getting a good knife, get this knife.

Love it

Solid little EDC knife. It's compact, sharp out of the box, and built to handle daily tasks without feeling flimsy. The action is smooth, the grip feels secure, and it disappears in the pocket until you need it. Reliable, practical, and well worth carrying every day.

Hubby Loves It

My husband lost his last Osborne at work. The kids and I bought this brand new one and had it later engraved with his initials and phone number in case he ever lost it again. He loves it and the engraving! Successful Christmas!

A classic EDC knife.

This is a classic EDC folder that only weighs 3oz. It disappears in your pocket.

Best folder ever made!

I had the original 943 but sadly lost it while camping. Bought the 940 and love the upgraded alluminum handle and new blade design. This knife is worth every penny. Thank you Benchmade for making an American blade of the highest quality!

The Perfect Gift

I bought this for my partner after he lost this same model. He was so happy to have it back. The feel and quality are way better than other brands he tried in the interim.

The Osborne 940 is the best knife that Benchmade makes and for that matter, the best knife on the planet

I own 3 940 Osbornes and they are best knives on the market. Benchmade makes the best knives, has the best customer service and the best warranty program on the planet bar none. Benchmade is leaps and bounds beyond the competition. I do not own any other knives from any other company. I only own Benchmade knives because if you want the best, then you have to buy the best and that is Benchmade.

Very good service

This Osbourne is amazing. Blade came perfectly centered and the fit and finish is great!!! I would buy another knife from them in a heartbeat. I contacted them for another pocket clip and they got right back to me. I love buying from Benchmade!

Osborne | Green Aluminum

The knife is lightweight and slender, making it comfortable for daily carry without being bulky love the iconic green aluminum handle, especially because it avoids the look of common, black-handled knives. The knife is built to last

940 Osborne

Purchased this knife at Cowboy Christmas in Las Vegas. Liked the feel of it in my hand. The quality is exceptional. It has great edge retention and is very versatile with pretty much any job I've thrown at it. This has quickly become my favorite EDC knife.

Excellent Knife

This knife is really light weight and super sharp. It feels perfectly balanced between the blade and the handle, too - I noticed this randomly, and it's a bonus. The size of the Osborne makes it perfect for my every day carry, and it looks beautiful. I'm glad I opted for the carbon fiber handle. I've only had it for a few days, but I expect the stainless steel blade to last a long time after putting it through an rough few uses already during the holiday season (including a cutting a thick, stray branch off of the Christmas tree, cutting through rope outdoors, cutting shipping boxes to fit into the recycling bin). The lifetime warranty and service options are quite impressive. Ultimately, this knife is definitely worth the price - it seems like you really get what you paid for with Benchmade.

I'm so impressed!

I am so impressed by my Benchmade folding knife. It stands out immediately compared to my off the shelf knives for its excellent build quality. Every detail feels precise and well-made, with tight tolerances and a refined finish that inspires confidence. In the hand, it feels fantastic-balanced, secure, and comfortable without being bulky, making it easy to control for everyday tasks. The action is smooth and effortless. Opening and closing the knife is quick and natural, with a reliable, one-handed operation that feels both satisfying and dependable. To top it off, the drop point blade design is highly versatile and impressively sharp right out of the box, delivering clean cuts and strong edge retention that truly completes the package.

Awesome knife

This was my first Benchmade product and its miles better than any other knife I've had. Compared to the normal $50ish dollar knifes I've carried in the past I can tell this is going to last forever. The blade is extremely sharp and the blade seems to be extremely hard. The action is super smooth and doesn't seem to get dust or grit in it. I've gotten it really dirty, rinsed it off and it opens like its brand new. The finish on the outside is really durable and the color looks way better in person. Worth it!

Wanted this knife forever

I finally bought myself my Osborne and when I was selling them years ago I remember them as very smooth openers, but mine is a little tough. Almost like its been tightened too much. I'm afraid to loosen it up myself. I hope the stiffness wears out with time. Other than that its perfect.

Top tier blade

I've owned this knife for 7 years. I bought it when my first daughter was born and it's been with me every day since. I've used it on the construction sight, skinning deer, over the camp fire, getting splinters out and everything in between. I've had it come plenty apart in the dryer a year ago and I sent the knife back in pieces and the warranty department for a small fee, replaced all missing parts and re sharpened the blade for me. I will never carry another knife. I plan to hand this knife down to my son when he's old enough to take care of it.

I like Benchmade knives

By Brent L.

This is a great knife. With just a little practice you can open it about as fast as the full auto version. I'd like to see Benchmade put some jimping or something else to give purchase to your thumb when you reach into your pocket, to deploy the knife. The clip needs to be strong, so you don't lose it, or have the knife fall out on its own, which has happened to me. I removed the clip, bent it back, and my favorite knife stays in my pocket again. However, it really takes some effort to pull i...
