Anyone use one of these as a daily pocket knife? Thoughts on the knife?

I have a hard time spending more than $150 on a pocket knife but have a couple in the $250 range. I don’t think I could ever do $350 but I do have a few custom skinners that are $500 to $650 but they are more like an art piece
The older I get the more I realize there’s a solid spot in the middle that suits me best. Can still get really nice stuff without settling for subpar stuff.

I went with a CLA just because it’s a little bigger that the Calymore

That one at least looks like it's stout. Every BM knife I have picked up is too light and breakable feeling. I like a knife with some heft.

Youd love the adamas. Grossly expensive, but I have one and it is awesome. Holds an edge really well and sharpens very easily. Very solid and definitely hefty. Its heavy.

It was on sale at Cabela’s I think for $260 and I had a GC that paid for most of it. I probably wouldn’t have bought it without having the GC but glad I got it.

I just switched from Case back to Buck because I keep losing them and $30/ea is a little easier to swallow than $75.

The Claymore OTF or the folder? I'm not a fan of Benchmade's Grivory/FRN handles, always feel cheap for what they charge for those knives. Better to get a Griptillian and put a set of AWT scales on it. The DA OTF Claymores are OK, DA OTF's in general are a good EDC option.

Benchmade's entire product line is absurdly priced now.

Does it have a clip on it to secure it on pocket?

All I read was "Benchmade Claymore" before clicking the link. Very disappointed to discover this is about a pocket knife. Very disappointed indeed.

That is true, I remember when Griptillians were $40 - $60, just solid pocket knives. I even have two Benchmade Red Class knives, import-made and under $30, back when they were doing that whole Red, Blue, Black, and Gold Class arrangement.
