Benchmade - Benchmade 537GY Bailout Folding Knife

The Benchmade 537GY Bailout is a very lightweight and rugged "black class" tactical knife featuring a CPM-3V powder steel tanto blade, an aluminum tang and enlarged Grivory plastic liners.

Tactical Tanto made of high quality CPM-3V tool steel.

Benchmade Bailout has a typically tactical design, highlighted by the black color scheme of the blade and facings, as well as the shape of the blade. The knife uses an 86 mm blade with Japanese tanto profile, made of high quality CPM-3V tool steel.

The shape of the wedge used provides increased tip strength while maintaining high cutting performance.

The CPM-3V grade with its parameters approaches the properties of premium S7 and A9 steels and is an excellent alternative to A2, D2 and CPM M4. Unlike classic powder steels, CPM 3V is not stainless steel, so it is worth taking proper care of the blade and maintaining it regularly.

The head has been coated with a gray DLC coating, which has very high abrasion resistance, also protects steel from corrosion. The blade can be conveniently unfolded with one hand, thanks to the use of a double-sided peg (made of anodized aluminum), thus allowing right- and left-handed people to operate the knife comfortably.

Reliable mechanisms and comfortable handle

The head lock is, of course, the Axis-lock, the flagship mechanism of the Benchmade brand, valued for its tremendous load resistance, insensitivity to dirt and ease of use.

Thanks to the use of enlarged, grivory plastic facings, the design of the knife is extremely lightweight (58 g) and can be used comfortably with gloves or people with larger hands.

Non-slip texture of the handle and its widening at the base provide a firm grip on the knife, and prevent your hand from moving while working. Wide clip with the option to translate (left/right), allows you to carry the knife in your pocket or tactical gear.

The handle is finished with an aluminum insert, which can act as a hook for a rope or a head for hammer blows.
