Shame on Benchmade??

[cmshoot]

Benchmade has always been a 2a supporter. Look at their history. Look at FB, IG, etc. I don't see how this affects gun rights whatsoever.

Wait till ALL the facts come out. Remember fake news

You think the police are lying about this? Why?

I cannot wait to see them at the bladeshow this year.

Benchmade also gives money to democrat candidates...

They support some anti-2a democrat as well. They should have said no thanks to their equipment. Shame on you Benchmade. They will lose sales just like Dicks, Yeti, Daniel Defense, etc.

Sooo, one person giving small amounts of money and we are ready to throw the baby out with the bath water. Makes sense. I'm sure no other companies have left thinking individuals.
