Everyday, whether at work, at home or at play, you are presented with options. Options to accept complacency or the opportunities to search out a better way. And so it is with knives, the option to have the best tool for the job.Too often people take their choice of knives for granted when the reality is that if they took the extra time to learn the true differences, it could translate into extra time and money saved over the long haul.Easier access, enhanced edge retention, durability, and higher standards of manufacturing qualities equate to enhanced performancemore value for the money.Like most things, knives have evolved over the years. Its well worth your while to take some time to seek out the modern advantages.There are some very important considerations when it comes to selecting and purchasing a knife. The alternative could mean frustration with a dull knife, or it could mean regret of something more serious. The choice is yours.whatsInAknife?STRONGER. BETTER.SAFER.

And to make certain it never fades, we established the Benchmade Custom Design Team. Its founded on the premise of a high regard for the individual custom knife maker who pours their genuine passions, and given talents into making unique realities one piece at a time. To them, it goes beyond earning a living, its an opportunity to express their own interpretations of cutting edge design.Benchmade has perfected a collaboration of efforts with these rogues of conformity, tapping into the newest in locking mechanisms, progressive designs, and the latest in materials. Ultimately, this intellectual exchange transpires into something special in the form of a Benchmade knife.THE DESIGNERSMeL PARDUe Theseni orteammember,Melhasbeengri ndi ng sparks,maki ngkni vesandcreati ngafol l owi ngfor 20-pl usyears.Hi sstyl ehasacl assandsi mpl i ci tyal l i tsown.TheParduecol l aborati onsof fergreatuti l i ty totheeverydaykni feuserwhi l eatthesameti me presenti nganupscal edi sti ncti on.Lessi sdefi ni tel y morewi thMel sdesi gns.BiLL McHenRY & JASOn WiLLiAMS I trunsi nthefami l yBi l landstepsonJasonspend thei rdaysmaki ngexqui si tepi ecesofartwi than edgeoni t.Thei rdedi cati onandtal entscompl i ment oneanotherverywel l ,andhavel edtoseveral noteworthyi nnovati onsi nthekni femaki ngworl d.

But its the mechanics of motion that happens in the process, which can make the difference between ordinary and extraordinary. Is the knife easy to actuate, can the knife be opened with one hand, is it ambidextrous, and will it be reliable when you need it most? These are all essential considerations when it comes to knife mechanics.Benchmade offers several mechanisms, from patented exclusives including the unparal-leled AXIS, to more traditional lock back designs.

Which blade steel is best? Just a couple of the questions we are asked when people see our knives, and the answers come down to this Benchmade uses a variety of modern materials specially selected for their superior performance characteristics.We strongly believe that if youre going to put this much effort into designing a custom quality cutting tool, then it only makes sense to build it of the materials which compliment its form and enhance its function. And in some instances its more than just selecting a certain material, its what we do to it to bring out the extra edge which sets us apart from everyone else. Bottom line, we would much rather overbuild a knife than risk the alternativewe thought you would like that, too.
