People hate on Benchmade pricing and heat treats, but you have to admit, this knife is beautiful.
They made this colours perfect. And BM knows how to make CF scales. Very very nice edc knife.

They did really good on this one Dane! Thanks for checking it out!
Not really a Benchmade fan but I’m not gonna lie I want this one pretty bad. They did a really good job with this one.
That is a beauty I love the scales this is a home run for thanks for sharing Zach
That marbled CF is suweet!

Great first choice!! Start with the best!
I picked up my Mini on KnafSale complete with red Applied Weapons Tech scales. So sweet.
That mini Adamas with carbon fiber would look good with the coated blade to match the thumb studs. Still love the shot show limited with Burgundy scales, wish I had one of those. Thanks for sharing Zach, be safe.

Good call! A subtle coating would pop! Keep your eyes open, I have seen those burgundy micarta ones pop up on Knaf Sale and such. Thanks!
Great video, I've been on the fence on my next knife and this settled it for me. Some places are starting to sell out but you can still find it for 340ish. Appreciate the content!
Just picked one up a month ago beautiful knife a tiny bit of blade I know tighten the pivot screw and still has a tiny bit of play but I like it so much gonna keep it
This is one of the best looking Benchmade knives!

I feel like the Narrows and this Mini Adamas should trade prices.
Really nice knife. I would have put the black blade and linner with black mini deep carry clip. That’s just me. Thanks for showing us I hadn’t seen the linner before. Thanks Zach 😊
I have the og d2 adamas and finally ordered this mini and I couldn't be more stoked. Should be here in 2 days. I love d2 steel and will love magnacut even more I'm sure
The moment I saw this knife I had to have it, for some unknown reason. Got it in today, I was not disappointed. Just an awesome piece of steel. A big upgrade over the original mini, which I will still find plenty of use for.

Looks great! I really like my limited edition with burgundy scales though.
Very nice looking knife, i like the contrast of the black carbon fiber and the flat dark eath pbd coating . But yes i agree with you the hardware kind of stands out a little too much as if it was black it would mach the carbon or may be if the hardware was also flat dark earth. But again really nice piece .....
I totally agree that this knife is just short of a gold class knife. Really appreciate the review, bro. Your review made me pull the trigger on this one. Can't wait till it gets here
Gosh I wish this existed with damasteel blade it would be gorgeous and would be a gold glass imo
Got one of these today. The marbled carbon fiber looks amazing to me

I mean, it really is a gold class. The only things they could have done are a milled clip and swapped the steel for Ti liners. This thing sits perfectly as it is though. Can’t wait to get one!

I got a tan and green one for $260 at REI last week. I love it. The handle fills the palm and blade has a nice round edge. Its a tad heavy to pocket carry compared to my 940. Overall its a solid knife, really pleased with it

It is definitely Gold Class worthy! It should give the MCR a run for EDC champion!
mini adamas, freek, or barrage.... I want assisted so I think my mind is made up. It will be EDC, but I like some heft vs bugout. automatic is not an option for me. I have a northfork already, why I'm thinking something a bit different. Any other mini assisted I should look at?
I had the red shotshow one and loved it bigtime but was offered a trade I couldnt pass up .. Mini Adamas Cuts was better then the beefiness would mke you think... Slices way better then you think.

Would you suggest the full sized Adamas or the Mini for a EDC knife that is going to be used for everything. I like the idea of a full sized for hunting/outdoor purposes but it seems a bit big for carrying around in a pocket often. I haven't handled the full size so I could be wrong about the pocket comment.
