This premium version has a Ægir pattern Damasteel reverse Tanto blade, aqua anodized bolsters and Arctic Storm Fat Carbon scales with additional Gold Class details listed below.

Brand new, direct from Benchmade Knives. 

Blade: Scaled down to a sub-3 inch length, the utilitarian reverse Tanto blade profile is sturdy enough to handle most of your daily cutting tasks. Smooth, ambidextrous dual thumb stud operation offers fast, one-handed access, while the high saber grind and top swedge deliver well-balanced performance. Stunning Damasteel Damascus provides plenty of visual appeal with modern performance.

Handle: Contoured Arctic Storm Fat Carbon handle scales pair with aqua anodized bolsters for a striking look, ergonomic comfort and a lightweight, durable handle with a versatile, neutral design. A gold-plated floating back spacer complements this high-class piece while the ambidextrous AXIS lock delivers smooth operation with reliable, rock solid lockup for safe use.

Carries via a reversible stainless-steel mini ‘Split Arrow’ clip.

Damasteel: A modern pattern welded stainless Damascus, Damasteel combines two modern stainless steels — RWL34 and PMC27. Folded in unique patterns, the finished steel is acid etched to create the eye-catching designs seen on the blade. Offering the high hardness and corrosion resistance of RWL34, Damasteel has similar performance to CPM-154.
