Benchmade Infidel

I've been looking at the Infidel for a few years but finally pulled the trigger this week!  It was well worth the wait!  What a beautiful knife and a solid operating OTF!

How does the quality compare to a Combat Troodon? (Yes, I still don’t have one.) Do they have a tanto blade?

The Infidel is solid!  Very minimal blade play and fires hard...I have seen a lot of negative press from reviewers but I don't know why, this thing is pretty amazing!  Unfortunately, no tanto blade shape for this one.  I've handled a Troodon and I would say the two are very similar in weight and feel.  I remember the Troodon I held rattling a lot but this Infidel has zero rattles open or closed.  It is tight!
