The 319-1 Proper model by Benchmade Knives is a throwback to traditional pocket knives with, of course, their modern touch. This slip joint design is an excellent every day carry size perfect for sliding in your pocket or pack. Built with contoured red G10 handle scales and premium S30V blade steel.

Brand new item direct from Benchmade Knives, USA.

The Blade: A very useful sheepsfoot style on the 319 crafted from edge retaining CPM S30V stainless steel and given a classic satin finish. The length comes in just under three inches featuring a plain cutting edge and simple nail nick opener towards the end of the front flat. The modern touches include an upper swedge grind and a jimped thumb ramp for a bit more control. This is a non-locking blade that operates on bronze washers and is held open/closed with a strong backspring. 

The Handle: A useful, comfortable contoured construction with this piece built from skeletonized stainless liners and attractive red G10 scales. G10 is one of the most popular handle materials in the knife world today. All is secured using torx screws with a nice lanyard hole at the end allowing the user to apply his or her own personal touch to the knife. 

The 319-1 Proper Red does not include a pocket clip.
