The Benchmade Auto Adamas is a rugged out-the-side automatic knife built for users who demand fast deployment, uncompromising strength, and dependable performance in high-stress environments. Engineered with premium materials and Benchmade’s precision-driven design approach, it delivers the kind of reliability expected from a hard-use tool designed for real-world conditions.
Its 3.8" CPM-MagnaCut stainless tool steel drop point blade is built for exceptional toughness, edge retention, and corrosion resistance. Finished in gray Cerakote, the blade gains added durability while reducing glare and maintaining a subdued, tactical appearance. A partially serrated edge enhances its versatility, making it especially effective for cutting rope, webbing, cord, and other fibrous materials, while still retaining a plain edge section for controlled slicing and precision work. The drop point profile ensures balanced performance for piercing, slicing, and general utility tasks.
As an out-the-side automatic, the Auto Adamas provides rapid blade deployment paired with Benchmade’s AXIS lock system for secure, confidence-inspiring lockup. The result is a mechanism that combines speed with strength, giving users fast access to a blade that remains firmly locked during demanding use.
The handle is built from textured Desert Tan G-10 scales over skeletonized stainless steel liners, creating a strong yet weight-conscious structure. The aggressive texturing ensures a secure grip in varied conditions, while the internal liner construction reinforces durability for hard-use applications. An ambidextrous stainless steel pocket clip offers flexible carry options and keeps the knife ready for immediate access when needed.
At 5.11" closed and weighing 6.17 ounces, the Auto Adamas delivers substantial capability in a compact automatic platform that’s built for serious work. Every detail reflects Benchmade’s commitment to precision engineering and field-ready performance. Proudly made in the USA, it’s a tool designed to perform when it matters most.
