The 3550BK Pardue is another great automatic knife from Benchmade. The small size makes it convenient to carry and the black coated pocket clip is a nice touch. The 154-CM spearpoint blade shape of this small auto offers enhanced tip qualities. Push-button automatic blade action snaps out fast. The black anodized 6061 T-6 machined aluminum handles are comfortable and thin. The sliding safety works without a hitch. Overall, the 3350BK is a great choice for everyday carry.
