Many states and cities cap carried blade length well under 9.50\", and some restrict daggers and large fighting knives specifically. The Benchmade H\u0026amp;K Feint 14120BK is best treated as a home, range, or property tool unless you have confirmed your local blade length rules first.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs 440C good knife steel?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e440C is a proven high carbon stainless steel with strong corrosion resistance and good toughness at moderate hardness. On the Benchmade H\u0026amp;K Feint 14120BK it is run at 58-60 HRC and given a black coating, so it resists rust well and sharpens back easily on ordinary stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is Santoprene and how does the handle feel?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSantoprene is a soft, rubber like thermoplastic that stays tacky in wet or gloved hands and absorbs some shock. The 1.250\" thick handle on the Benchmade H\u0026amp;K Feint 14120BK fills the palm, which matters on a knife this heavy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do you sharpen the Benchmade H\u0026amp;K Feint 14120BK?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWork the long, gently curved drop point edge in sections on a bench stone, keeping a consistent angle and finishing with a light strop. The 440C blade on the Benchmade H\u0026amp;K Feint 14120BK responds well to standard stones and does not require diamond abrasives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere is the Benchmade H\u0026amp;K Feint 14120BK made?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBenchmade builds its own knives in Oregon City, Oregon, but the Heckler \u0026amp; Koch line was a separate licensed program and the Benchmade H\u0026amp;K Feint 14120BK is listed as an import. The H\u0026amp;K line has since been retired.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere can I buy the Benchmade H\u0026amp;K Feint 14120BK?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGoing Gear is an authorized Benchmade dealer and lists the Benchmade H\u0026amp;K Feint 14120BK when stock is available.
