Benchmade 980SBK Turret Olive Drab G10 Black Serrated S30V Tactical AXIS Lock Folder

The Benchmade Turret is a new AXIS Lock equipped, Black Class folder that blends every day utility with tactical functionality to offer a robust cutting tool you will want to carry everywhere. Olive Drab G10 scales are contoured and textured for comfort in the hand and offer a nice change of pace from "tactical black" while the saber ground, drop point S30V blade gives you plenty of cutting power to get the job done when and wherever you are. This version comes with a black, poly-ceramic Cerakote finish, partially serrated edge blade.

Brand new directly from Benchmade Knife Co.

Blade: A black Cerakote coated blade delivers optimal slicing performance with a high saber grind for durability and subtle top swedge for enhanced piercing. The partially serrated section rips through fibrous materials with ease. Dual, black thumb studs and the AXIS lock mechanism provide smooth, ambidextrous operation and fast deployment. S30V blade steel offers a good balance of toughness, corrosion resistance and edge retention for every day use.

Handle: Full, black oxide coated, stainless steel liners form the foundation for the rock solid, ambidextrous, AXIS lock mechanism and G10 handles. The Olive Drab G10 handle scales are contoured and textured for optimum comfort and security with a subtle dual guard that locks the knife in the hand. The handles are open construction for ease of cleaning and maintenance with black barrel spacers for a tactically subdued knife. The smooth AXIS lock delivers strength and reliability for hard use and adverse conditions.

Carries via a reversible, tip-up, black oxide stainless steel pocket clip.

CPM-S30V: A martensitic, powdered stainless steel with high levels of wear and corrosion resistance. Its chemistry promotes the formation and even distribution of vanadium carbides, which are harder and more effective at cutting than chromium carbides. This gives it a very refined grain, further improving the sharpness and toughness. S30V is a great, all around steel with high levels of performance.
