CPM MagnaCut - the next generation steel in the Benchmade 18050 Intersect knife
Head with a usable Drop Point profile is 68 mm long, made of super steel CPM MagnaCut manufactured using powder technology. The main difference between CPM MagnaCut steel and other stainless steels is the amount of chromium. The elimination of chromium carbides from the steel's composition has resulted in a fine microstructure, making CPM MagnaCut much easier to sharpen compared to steels with similar wear resistance.
CPM MagnaCut combines the strength of CPM-4V, the corrosion resistance of CPM-20CV, the retention of CPM-CruWear/ CPM-4V, and an impressive hardness of up to 62 HRC, making it now considered one of the best steels in the world for use in factory-made knives.
The blade has a Stonewashed matte finish (abrasive stone bath), which effectively masks any scratches or abrasions on the blade caused by use.
The top edge of the blade is almost entirely covered with a transverse notch, which makes it easier to maneuver the blade when doing work that requires precision.
Comfortable grip of Benchmade 18050 Intersect knife
The handle on the 18050 Intersect knife was made of material Santoprene in deep blue. This fully hygienic rubber-textured material prevents the knife from slipping out of your hand and ensures safe operation even with wet or dirty hands.
In the back of the ergonomically profiled handle there is a hole for attaching a rope or paracord, thanks to which you will secure the knife from accidental loss, being, for example, on a boat.
To carry the knife safely, there is a injection-molded sheath made of thermoplastic material with high resistance to damage, temperature and moisture. The case is equipped with a special attachment clip, which makes it easy to trounce the knife in the sheath to pockets, belts, backpacks and other hiking equipment.
Benchmade 18050 Intersect multi-purpose knife is an excellent choice for those looking for a very lightweight tool made of premium materials and water-resistant.
