Tool of the Week-Pocket Knife

Specifically the Benchmade 806D2 AFCK AXIS.

I've had the knife for about 6 years, I've carried it through 2 combat tours in Iraq and the general harsh conditions that being with Brett on a daily basis entails and this thing has performed admirably.  Nowadays, I use the blade for farm related tasks, cutting bailing wire, breaking off chunks of lime, spot prunnings, etc...  As you can see from the pic on the left, the screws that hold the pocket clip on can get loose and fall out.  This is not a fault of the blade but more a factor of me carrying the blade on my right hand pocket which is also where my M-4 rifle fell on a tactical sling so the  pocket clip took a lot of abuse.  Benchmade warranties their knives for life and will send you replacement parts for as long as you own the knife (I've got a new clip and screw set on the way).  Though the D2 steel model is no longer made the same knife is available with a new type of steel as the 806-901 AFCK, I can highly recommend this knife and this company, they are truly Brett-Proof and thus they are Brett-Approved.
