The Benchmade Griptilian is a true cornerstone in Benchmade’s lineup, earning its place as one of the most iconic knives in the community. Introduced in the early 2000s, it quickly gained popularity due to its innovative design, ergonomic handle, and the reliable AXIS lock mechanism. Designed by the late Mel Pardue, one of Benchmade’s most prolific and respected knife makers, the Griptilian reflects his knack for creating tools that are both practical and enduring. Its enduring appeal rivals classics like the Spyderco Delica and Endura, making it a benchmark for versatility and dependability. The Griptilian is available in various blade shapes, sizes, and materials, which has helped it remain relevant and highly regarded by users across the globe.
What kind of people would write collect and review multitools? Quite simple really- we are designers and do-ers, outdoors types and indoor types, mechanics, doctors, problem solvers and problem makers. As such, we have, as a world spanning community, put every type, size and version of multitool, multifunction knife, pocket knife and all related products to every test we could manage in as many places and environments as there are.
