Your Guide to Benchmade Knives: USA-Made Performance

Why Choose Benchmade Knives?

Benchmade knives stand out for top craftsmanship, innovative design, and premium materials. Benchmade makes every knife in the USA and builds them to last.

Many models utilize high-carbon steels like CPM-S30V or CPM-S90V for their long-lasting sharpness and excellent rust resistance. Benchmade knives feature smooth action and easy-to-use locks. They are a top choice for outdoorspeople, first responders, and everyday users.

Types of Benchmade Knives

Benchmade offers many knife styles for different needs:

  1. Folding Knives: Lightweight and easy to carry, folding knives are great for everyday use.
  2. Automatic Knives: Quick to open, these tactical knives work well for duty and defense.
  3. Hunting Knives: Fixed-blade knives with strong steel for tackling demanding outdoor tasks.
  4. Waterproof Knives: Built for wet conditions with rust-resistant stainless steel.
  5. Tactical Knives: Designed for rugged use with easy one-handed opening.

Whether you need a reliable EDC knife or a rugged hunting knife, Benchmade has a model that suits you.

How to Pick the Right Knife

Choose a Benchmade knife by thinking about your use:

  1. Blade Type: Drop-point blades are well-suited for a wide range of applications. Tanto and clip points are better for piercing.
  2. Steel Type: CPM-S30V knife blades strike a balance between sharpness and durability. CPM-S90V knife steel stays sharp longer but is harder to sharpen.
  3. Handle Material: Materials such as G10, carbon fiber, and aluminum provide a firm grip and lasting durability.
  4. Lock Style: The AXIS® lock offers smooth, ambidextrous use. Other models use button or liner locks.
  5. Size and Weight: Compact knives are suitable for EDC, while larger knives handle outdoor tasks better.
