Rescope your kill kit with a fixed blade built to handle the demands of serious big game processing. The Benchmade SlipRidge Fixed Knife combines premium materials, purpose-driven ergonomics, and field-ready versatility in a compact package designed to become a core component of your backcountry gear loadout. With its dark stabilized wood handle and satin MagnaCut blade, this SlipRidge delivers rugged performance with a refined look that stands out in the field.
The 3.7-inch drop-point blade is crafted from MagnaCut stainless steel and hardened to 60-62 HRC, giving it an excellent balance of toughness, edge retention, and corrosion resistance. Its satin finish keeps the blade looking clean and professional while the high tip and generous belly provide the cutting geometry needed for processing large game. Benchmade's SelectEdge ultra-fine edge sharpening process further enhances the blade's cutting performance, giving you a precise edge for controlled field work. Despite having enough blade length for substantial cuts, the SlipRidge remains nimble enough to maneuver through tighter areas where precision matters.
A dark stabilized wood handle gives this SlipRidge a distinctive combination of natural character and rugged durability. The ergonomic design helps prevent the knife from rolling in your hand while providing maximum control during demanding cuts. A deep finger choil improves handling security, while contoured pinch points give you the ability to choke up on the blade for more precise work. The ambidextrous design makes the knife comfortable to handle from either side, adding practical versatility when conditions or cutting positions change.
The SlipRidge comes accompanied by a modular OD Green Boltaron sheath that offers flexible carry options in the field. The sheath weighs 2.689 ounces and provides a durable home for the knife when you're moving through the backcountry. The complete kit also includes a 440C stainless steel Trackpoint gut hook finished in Rust Orange Cerakote, giving you a specialized cutting tool alongside the primary blade.
Measuring 8.11 inches overall with a 0.114-inch blade thickness, the SlipRidge weighs 7.945 ounces before adding the sheath. It's substantial enough for demanding field use without becoming unnecessarily bulky. From its MagnaCut steel and SelectEdge treatment to its stabilized wood handle and modular sheath system, every part of this knife is purpose-built for hunters who expect their gear to perform when it counts.
