Benchmade 560BK-1 Freek knife

The Benchmade 560BK-1 Freek stands out as a favored knife model, introducing a groundbreaking combination of two exceptionally durable materials: the renowned CPM-M4 steel and G10 laminate.

Featuring a drop-point blade with a practical usable length of 91mm, the Benchmade 560BK-1 Freek boasts a high flat grind, safeguarded from environmental factors by a robust Cerakote ceramic coating. This coating ensures remarkable abrasion and scratch resistance, enhancing the blade's longevity.

The new 560BK-1 model showcases a blade crafted from high-carbon CPM-M4 tool steel, hardened to an impressive 62-64 HRC. With elevated levels of molybdenum, vanadium, and tungsten, this steel offers exceptional sharpness retention and unparalleled hardness, albeit requiring meticulous sharpening and maintenance.

Facilitating effortless one-handed deployment, the double-sided peg caters to both right- and left-handed individuals. The knife employs the Axis-lock mechanism, renowned for its robustness and user-friendly operation in folding knives.

Enhancing user experience, a thumb ramp on the blade's spine ensures secure thumb support during knife operation. The ergonomically profiled facings, crafted from black-gray G10 laminate, are intricately milled to enhance grip and security.

Adding a touch of uniqueness, red inserts (liners) and polished spacers, adhering to the same color scheme, accentuate the model's aesthetic appeal. Additionally, a steel clip, configurable for both left- and right-side carry, completes the handle design.
