CPM MagnaCut - the new generation steel in the Benchmade Mini Auto Adamas folding knife
The folder has an 82mm long blade, made of CPM MagnaCut super steel produced with 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 as much as 64 HRC, making it now considered one of the world's best ste els used in factory-made knives.
Armored head in Benchmade knife
The wide drop-point blade, 82 mm in length, is coated with a gray Cerakote coating, which protects against minor scratches and emphasizes the tactical nature of the knife. The blade has a strong stock and a flat grind, which guarantees smooth cutting and easy penetration. The head at its widest point is as much as 3.5 mm thick.
The back section of the ridge is raised and transverse cutters are 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 locking mechanism in Mini Auto Adamas
Benchmade's flagship mechanism, the double-sided Axis-lock, valued for its immense mechanical strength, dirt resistance and ease of use for both right- and left-handed users, is responsible for safe operation. Releasing the automatically engaging lock slider opens the blade. To further secure the knife from opening or folding, we can use an additional dorsal locking slider.
Solid handle
The Benchmade Mini Auto Adamas features lightweight and highly durable carbon fiber liners, which are attached to gold-colored steel liners, responsible for the rigidity and strength of the design. The handle is characterized by a striking appearance, as it is in shades of gray and black, which perfectly match the gold elements of the design. One of the most important advantages of carbon fiber, in addition to its striking appearance, of course, is its minimal weight.
Convertible clip
Discreetly carrying the Benchmade Mini Auto Adamas knife in your pocket is made possible by the high-set clip, which can be mounted on either side of the handle. The gold-colored clip blends perfectly with the striking handle.
