Thinking about picking up a Benchmade Pardue. Wanted to handle one in person. Does anyone know of a place in the Denver area that stocks and sells Benchmade knives?

I think Sportsmans and the Army Surplus store both do, but I'd probably call first.
There's a bow shop south of i70 on Kipling that has a very nice selection. Owner is a great guy too.Attachment 64362
Irving is right on the money. Try surplus first,,, small biz AND it's just cool.
Thanks, guys.
Is the Army surplus store the one in Arvada?
There is one in Arvada, but I'm talking about the one on Pecos just North of Hwy 36. This is the one with the mall ninjas that work behind the knife counter that Bert and I always make fun of. Nice guys, but classic mall ninja (only with knives). That same Army Surplus store also owns the one down on Broadway. Pretty sure all the big box stores carry Benchmade, because I know I've seen them at the Cabelas and the Bass Pro as well.
Which knife are you looking at specifically? I bought a Pardue up from Cabelas, but I suppose it depends on what variant you are looking for.
Looking for the 530. Unless I don't like it when I get my hands on one. Then might look at a griptilian or mini griptilian.
Cabelas should have the 530, that's where I bought mine. Great EDC option, super thin and comfortable in the pocket. I'll warn you tho, if you are used to bulky or heavy knives, it will feel flimsy. I don't think it's designed for hard use, but it's fine for daily duty.Quote:
