Features of the Benchmade 431BK-1 Redoubt Folding Knife:
- D2 Tool Steel: The 90mm blade is made from high-quality CPM-D2 steel, hardened to 60-62 HRC. This steel variant provides exceptional wear resistance, long-lasting sharpness, and ease of sharpening.
- Tanto Profile: The blade’s Tanto profile, coated with Cerakote®, enhances corrosion resistance and gives the knife a distinctive military look.
- Axis Lock Mechanism: The double-sided Axis Lock offers reliable safety and durability. It is easy to operate for both right- and left-handed users and is resistant to dirt.
- Grivory Handle: The handle is crafted from Grivory, a glass-epoxy laminate known for its lightweight, high mechanical strength, and resistance to chemicals and temperature fluctuations. The aggressive texture ensures a secure grip.
- One-Handed Operation: The blade can be swiftly deployed with one hand using the double-sided thumb studs, while phosphor bronze washers ensure smooth movement.
- Lanyard Hole: A hole in the handle allows for attaching a lanyard or decorative paracord.
- Discreet Carry: The high-set clip provides convenient pocket carry.
The Benchmade 431BK-1 Redoubt features a Tanto profile and a 90mm blade with Cerakote® coating for added protection and a tactical appearance. The Axis Lock mechanism ensures secure blade retention, and the Grivory handle offers both comfort and durability.
