The blade on this knife also shows off a large hole near the handle, which works as a thumb opener. This makes it easier for the left-handed people to use this knife.
Handle:
The Ally has been bestowed with a new single-piece, folded stainless steel handle, which adds to the strength of the knife.

The HK Ally pocket knife houses a mono-lock mechanism, and a removable steel pocket clip. The three holes on the sides of the handle help to cut down the weight of the knife. Thickness of this handle, and of the overall knife, is a just 0.3 inches, which makes this knife fit easily into your pocket and virtually invisible. The handle also has a glass breaker at the end of it.
The Pros
When it came down to making a list of pros for this knife, it couldn’t have been easier. The blade is very sharp, and extremely easy to sharpen as well. It can very easily slip in and out of your pocket, because that is how thin it is. The pocket clip slips on very easily yet stays on tightly. The knife can be opened pretty easily with one hand using just the thumb. And it stays put in its closed position tightly. And it is great for carrying in tight pants or dress pants. Another possible benefit of the HK Ally knife, is that the little glass breaker at the back of it is pretty sharp, and the knife can fit snugly right inside a closed fist with the glass breaker extending out just a little bit. This makes it an excellent hidden tool in a self defense situation.
The Cons
The cons that come along with this knife don’t really affect its working; it all depends on what you use your knife for. The knife sometimes cannot be held at an edge for a long time. The finish on the blade wears off sort of quickly if rigorously used, but you can always get it for servicing to the Benchmade. It’s little bit small and might be tricky to open for people with larger hands. And it might poke into your palm if not gripped properly, but that’s just the issue of caution, which you should have while using a knife.
