The Benchmade Claymore is built around a 3.89" drop point blade crafted from 154CM stainless steel, delivering strong edge retention and dependable toughness for hard-use cutting tasks. A black Cerakote coated finish adds a low-reflection surface while enhancing corrosion resistance and wear protection in demanding environments. The blade’s profile is designed for versatile utility, handling slicing, piercing, and general field work with consistent control.
This is an out-the-side automatic knife equipped with a push-button deployment system that fires the blade with authority and locks it securely in place once open. The mechanism is engineered for speed and reliability, giving you fast one-handed access when it matters most. The locking system is solid and confidence-inspiring, designed to hold up under repeated use without compromise.
The handle is built from textured black Grivory, offering a lightweight yet durable grip that stays secure even in wet or gloved conditions. An ambidextrous stainless steel pocket clip allows for flexible carry options, while a lanyard hole adds additional retention possibilities. At 5.01" closed and weighing just 2.97 ounces, it carries comfortably without sacrificing strength or readiness.
