Benchmade - 273GY-1 Mini Adamas Folding Knife
Benchmade 273GY-1 Mini Adamas is a smaller version of the Adamas tactical knife designed by respected knifemaker Shane Sibert.
Tactical folder made of ultra-hard CPM-Cruwear 63-65 HRC steel
Following the upgrade, the Benchmade 273GY-1 Mini Adamas features an ultra-hard CPM-CruWear steel blade, G10 laminate liners, and the proven axis lock thus creating a handy tool with a durable and reliable design.
The latest crucible Industries LLC tool steel - CPM-Cruwear hardened to a hardness as high as 63-65 HRC. With excellent wear resistance and strength, CPM-Cruwear can be described as a steel with twice the performance of the original D2 steel. The new formula has been enriched with vanadium, tungsten and molybdenum additives, which give the steel exceptional wear resistance and allow for high hardening. When choosing a knife made of such steel, it is worth getting a diamond sharpener, as sharpening with a standard ceramic whetstone can be very labor-intensive and inefficient.
Head
Wide wedge drop-point with a length of 82 mm,covered with a gray cerakote coating, which protects against minor scratches and emphasizes the tactical nature of the knife. The blade has a sturdy tip and a flat grind, which guarantees smooth cutting and easy penetration. The head at its widest point is as large as 3.5 mm thickness.
The back section of the ridge was raised and transverse cutters were made on it, allowing the finger to rest steadily while working. Such parameters guarantee the functionality and durability of the knife and make it suitable for demanding tasks.
Reliable mechanisms and sturdy handle
The blade can be conveniently and quickly unfolded with one hand using the double-sided peg, which is convenient for both right and left-handed people.
Benchmade's flagship mechanism, the double-sided Axis-lock, valued for its immense mechanical strength, resistance to dirt, and ease of use for right- and left-handed users, is responsible for safe operation.
The Benchmade 273GY-1 Mini Adamas has g10 plastic facings made with precise 3D technique. The glass-epoxy laminate used is characterized by light weight, high mechanical strength, resistance to water, temperature change, and the action of many acids and solvents.
Contoured shape combined with transverse milling and srough texture plastics provide excellent knife grip and user comfort. Semi-open handle design makes it easy to keep the knife clean.
Discreet carrying of the knife in the pocket is made possible by high-set clip with the possibility of mounting on both sides of the handle.
