Benchmade Redoubt Combo CPM-D2 Folding Knife - Black
A folding knife crafted for daily carry (EDC), featuring a partially serrated blade with a Drop-Point shape. Manufactured from CPM-D2 tool steel and hardened to 60-62 HRC, the blade is further enhanced with a Cerakote coating for superior corrosion resistance. Effortless one-handed deployment is achieved through a double-sided thumb stud. Secure blade lockup in the open position is provided by the reliable Axis Lock mechanism. Ergonomic handle scales, made from lightweight Grivory polymer, ensure a comfortable and durable grip.
CPM-D2 tool steel
Crafted from CPM-D2 steel, the blade delivers outstanding abrasion resistance and extended edge retention. High levels of carbon and chromium provide excellent wear resistance. Developed through the powder metallurgy process (CPM), the steel features a uniform, fine carbide structure that enhances toughness, minimizes the risk of chipping or cracking, and allows for easier sharpening compared to conventional D2 or other steels of similar hardness.
Drop-Point blade, flat grind, Cerakote coating
The drop-point blade is crafted to enhance tip durability, making it ideal for outdoor and EDC applications that demand robust piercing capability coupled with superior blade control.
The Redoubt model is equipped with a partially serrated blade and a flat grind (Flat Grind) for greater resistance to wear and chipping. A highly scratch-resistant Black Cerakote coating is applied to the blade, delivering extra protection against corrosion and minimizing glare.
Contoured scales, non-slip texture
Ergonomically shaped handle scales crafted from lightweight Grivory polymer offer reliable durability. Enhanced with a non-slip texture and augmented by jimping in the finger-rest zone, the handle ensures a secure grip, minimizing the risk of your hand slipping during knife use.
A springy, steel clip in the tip-up carry position guarantees comfortable everyday portability, enabling secure attachment to your belt or pocket edge. The clip is positioned on the right side. An integrated hole at the end of the handle accommodates a cord or lanyard for added utility.
Axis-lock mechanism, copper washers
User protection is guaranteed by the reliable Axis-Lock system, which offers exceptional resistance to mechanical stresses. Enhanced-thickness copper washers contribute to outstanding structural strength and longevity, ensuring maximum safety and stability even during demanding tasks.
