Benchmade Adamas 375. Good bad or in between? Any feedback is appreciated thanks.

I like Benchmade, and have used mine on several deer and elk. However, I am underwhelmed with the Adamas 375. The tacti-cool design looks very impractical for a using knife.

Would you be able to make a more practical recommendation?

The model I was referring to is a Benchmark 4 1/2" drop point in 440 stainless. It is a Mel Pardue design I got from the NRA store.
Another knife I use a lot is a Knives of Alaska African skinner, with a partially serrated blade and gut hook. 4 1/4" blade.
I've used a Buck Model 102 for years, and it is still in my hunting box as a back-up, and very useful for filleting out inside tenderloins.
My newest and most latest is a 4" 440 drop point from Real Avid called the Revelation. Holds an edge that will shave a mouse, and has two LED lights in the haft that shine right on the work. Handy for gutting or quartering after dark, even under lights.
All of the above models have the non-slip rubber like grips except the Buck, which has the standard black handle. All have served me well, and seen hard use.
