Benchmade 940 Osborne is a popular EDC knife with a blade made of the renowned CPM-30V powder steel and profiled anodized aluminum cladding.

The Model 940 designed by Warren Osborne is undoubtedly one of the most famous knives in the world. It owes its success to its light and functional design and the use of high-quality materials that guarantee reliable and satisfactory operation.

Premium grade steel

The knife has a satin-finished blade, 86 mm long , made of American  CPM-S30V stainless steel .

Crucible Industries S30V powder steel is hardened to an optimal hardness of 58-60 HRC , which is why it maintains high sharpness for a long time, has high mechanical strength and is also resistant to corrosion.

Thanks to the high content of vanadium carbides, the steel is characterized by high impact strength and abrasion resistance, as well as excellent cutting properties. The blade is covered with a layer of black Teflon, which protects the blade against minor scratches.

When choosing a knife made of hard steel, you should buy a diamond sharpener, because sharpening with a standard ceramic whetstone can be very time-consuming and ineffective.

Utility blade

The wide blade with a tactical reverse-tanto profile has a matte satin finish (polishing) that perfectly matches the titanium cladding. Thanks to the use of a durable point, a flat grind and a cutting edge with a gently rounded line, the knife penetrates easily and has excellent cutting properties.

The thickness of the blade at its widest point is 3 mm, which is a compromise between the durability and functionality of the knife in everyday use.

Convenient to unfold

The blade can be conveniently and quickly unfolded with one hand using a double-sided pin, which is convenient for right and left-handed people.

Reliable lock

The flagship Benchmade mechanism, a double-sided Axis-lock, is responsible for operational safety, appreciated for its enormous mechanical strength, resistance to dirt and ease of use for right- and left-handed users.

Modern materials

The knife has cladding  made of anodized 6061-T6 aircraft aluminum, which is attached to steel liners that are responsible for the stiffness and durability of the structure. 

One of the main advantages of aluminum, apart from durability and the possibility of precise processing, is its low weight, which is necessarily related to the comfort of carrying and using the knife.

The profiled handle is wider at the base, which makes the knife comfortable to hold and the hand does not slip onto the blade while working.

This model uses blue anodized spacer sleeves, which contrast effectively with the dark color of the knife and undoubtedly attract the attention of every knife enthusiast.

Reversible clip

The knife can be carried discreetly in your pocket thanks to a standard embedded clip that can be mounted on both sides of the handle.
