I purchased this knife for my cousin. Had it sent directly to him. He called when he picked it up at post office and said it jumped out of his hand when he pushed the button. So I'm guessing it is snappy. He says it is sweet and he likes it. I was pretty sure he would. It's a benchmade. Another satisfied customer and Blade HQ, you rock.!!
Just Right!!

After carrying the Benchmade Mini Reflex everyday for several years, I decided it was time for a new EDC and boy did I choose the right one for me! The CLA is perfect in size, weight, action and just a beautiful piece of work. If your looking for a new EDC, this one is JUST RIGHT.
Awesome

This knife was a lot of money, for me anyway. But it was worth it. I absolutely love it. Very light and feels great in the hand and pocket. I recommend it. Definitely the best knife I own.
Thanks Benchmade and thanks Bladehq.

I've used the 3550, 2550, AFO 2 and the 5000. This is by far the best Benchmade Automatic Knife I've owned. It's light weight and sturdy. I'd highly recommend it to anyone.
A Great Knife!

Received my Benchmade CLA 4300 from BladeHQ today, and I could not be more pleased with the knife and my purchase. The knife was shipped promptly and arrived in a couple of days. The knife was exactly what I was looking for. Had never seen the knife in person before, so I had to go on reviews available online. I think one of the key selling points for this knife is its weight, or should I say lack there of. At 3.47oz. this is the most I would want to carry clipped to a belt, a pocket or in my pocket. I had considered the Benchmade AFO knife, but the primary drawback I got from the reviews was that knife's heavy weight. That knife weighs in at 5.8oz., which is pretty hefty. The difference being the aluminum handles on the AFO weighs more than the G-10 on the CLA. And I think both knives would serve the same purpose whether it be tactical, survival or EDC. While the aluminum handles would probably hold up being driven over by a car tire, but the G-10 would not. How many times are you going to be in that kind of rough situation. Too often it comes down to weight. Whether hiking or on duty, the less weight you can carry the happier you will be. The blade quality and design is what you would expect from Benchmade. They have made a great knife that will serve you well, without weighing you down.
