Ideal for everyday use

Benchmade Bailout 290BK Immunity is a military-style EDC knife accented by a blackened Wharncliffe profile blade. The knife uses a blade made of high-quality CPM-M4 tool steel hardened to a hardness as high as 62-64 HRC. Thanks to the high content of molybdenum, vanadium and tungsten, the high level of carbon has been balanced, resulting in excellent sharpness retention and tremendous hardness.

Sharpening such steel is difficult and time-consuming, and regular care of the blade must also be remembered. In return, however, the user gets a tool whose aggressive cutting and extremely long maintenance of working sharpness perfectly compensate for the mentioned inconveniences.
The head has been coated with a black Cerakote coating, which has very high abrasion resistance, also protects steel from corrosion.

Benchmade knife with AXIS Lock - guaranteed safe operation

The blade can be conveniently unfolded with one hand, thanks to a double-sided peg (made of anodized aluminum), allowing right- and left-handed people to comfortably operate the knife. The head lock is of course AXIS-lock, benchmade's flagship mechanism, valued for its immense load resistance, insensitivity to dirt and ease of use.

Military handle

Thanks to the use of facings made of durable CNC-machined aluminum, construction of the knife is extremely lightweight (65 g) and much more durable. Contoured handle provides a secure and safe grip while working.
Wide clip with the option to translate (left/right), also allows the knife to be carried in a pocket or tactical accessory.
