Benchmade Infidel vs Microtech Combat Troodon

Benchmade Infidel Knife OTF Double Action Automatic (3.95" Satin Plain) 3300

Rumors circulated for years about a possible Benchmade OTF knife. Good news Benchmade lovers- the knife has arrived. The Benchmade 3300 Infidel OTF is, to put it mildly, awesome. D2 tool steel double edged blade. Anodized T6 aluminum handle. And a pocket clip for easy carry.

Blade HQ's Benchmade Infidel Review is, to put it bluntly, about time! A few features we really like is the sliding button on the face of the handle, instead of the side as many others have. The milled "stepped" handle design assures that this knife will not be slipping out of your hand.
