Benchmade 495 Vector is a classic edc folder, equipped with a spear point blade made of CPM-S30V steel , a double lock and a flipper for quickly unfolding the blade with one hand. The Benchmade 495 Vector is a large folding knife that is perfect for both everyday urban use and light field work. The 91 mm long blade is made of CPM-S30V powder steel hardened to a hardness of 58-60 HRC . This type of steel is characterized by high hardness, corrosion resistance and a high content of carbides, which ensures long-term excellent sharpness. The blade has a spectacular spear-point shape , in which a strong tip and a decorative false blade stand out. The blade with a symmetrical profile provides very good penetration, has high stress resistance and good cutting properties. The knife blade can be quickly unfolded with one hand, using a flipper that can be conveniently operated by right and left-handed people. Thanks to the use of the Axis Assist system , all you need to do is press the pin slightly, the internal spring will automatically do the rest of the work for you. The Benchmade 495 Vector has two locks , a standard axis mechanism and an additional security that protects against accidental unfolding of the knife, e.g. when carrying. Profiled G10 laminate linings are attached to full steel inserts , which are responsible for the strength and rigidity of the structure. Non-slip texturing of the handle ensures a solid and comfortable grip of the knife. The open design makes it easy to clean the knife and reduces its weight. Discreet carrying of the knife in the pocket is ensured by a high-set clip, with the possibility of transferring it to the other side.
