Bestech BG05 "Scimitar" G-10 Series

Aug 20, 2018

I have this knife, and might I say, Bestech is killing it in ALMOST every way. I paid 55 for this at a brick and mortar store, which I don't regret because sometimes I get a good deal on a dealer exclusive knife, but for this price here, this is probably the best quality knife I have handled. There is ceramic on all the bearings, including the detent, and the action is fairly good at any under $150 pricetag out of the box. It whips out and closes silky smooth. After rebuilding it (Only rebuild knives if you are experienced or willing to lose the knife until you figure it out) it is damn near drop shut action. The handle is comfy, contoured, and mostly neutral, that and I am a sucker for nicely G10 for some reason. Only problem with bestech, Leftys are excluded, such as myself. I do not regret this or my Rhino, but cannot justify one of their truly great, higher end knifes until they fix that problem.

BenjaboolyDid you have any problem with soft screws/excessive locktite when you took yours apart?

BenjaboolyThat's good news. Been considering a Bestech Beluga in D2 but Kavik and MaxwellDemonic were the ones who had problems with the screws getting stripped.
