Benchmade Adamas OD Green G10 MagnaCut Folding Knife
The Benchmade Adamas OD Green G10 PE (Plain Edge) is an uncompromising, full-size tactical folding knife built for demanding use by military personnel, first responders, outdoor enthusiasts, and professionals. Within the Benchmade lineup, the Adamas series sets the standard for maximum mechanical strength and fracture resistance. This model combines advanced CPM-MagnaCut powder steel with a wear-resistant Flat Earth Cerakote finish. With a total length of 22.7 cm and a weight of 185 grams, this knife is designed for heavy-duty cutting and twisting tasks where standard folding knives fall short.
The substantial drop-point blade measures 9.7 cm in length and combines effective cutting geometry with a thick, dimensionally stable tip. CPM-MagnaCut steel (hardened to 60–62 HRC) offers an exceptional balance between toughness, service life, and superior corrosion resistance. The Flat Earth Cerakote ceramic coating protects the blade surface from scratches and chemical exposure and eliminates annoying reflections during use.
The handle is made of wear-resistant OD Green G10, mounted on solid, full-length stainless steel liners. This internal skeleton construction ensures structural rigidity under heavy lateral loads. For locking, the knife relies on the proven AXIS Lock (Crossbar Lock). The blade opens smoothly via the double-sided thumb stud and locks securely without play. Thanks to the symmetrical design of the lock and the reversible deep-carry clip, the knife is fully ambidextrous.
Benefits for the Target Audience
- High-quality CPM-MagnaCut steel: Offers excellent resistance to chipping, long-lasting edge retention, and very high resistance to corrosion and rust.
- Solid full-size dimensions: With a total length of 22.7 cm, the knife provides maximum leverage and control, even when wearing heavy-duty work gloves.
- Full-length steel liners: The load-bearing steel plates inside the G10 handle scales prevent twisting and deformation under heavy cutting pressure.
- Protective Cerakote coating: Reduces friction, protects against salts and moisture, and gives the knife a non-reflective tactical look.
- Reliable AXIS Lock: The hardened cross-pin locks the blade securely in place. The knife can be opened and closed with one hand without putting fingers in the path of the blade.
- Weather-resistant handle: The OD Green G10 scales with ergonomic finger grooves provide a firm grip in wet, muddy, or cold conditions.
Instructions for Use and Operation
- Opening and Closing: Press your thumb against the double-sided thumb rest to quickly rotate the blade into the open, locked position. You can also pull the AXIS Lock pin backward with your thumb and index finger and swing the blade open or closed with a smooth wrist motion.
- Carrying: Carry the knife using the reversible deep-carry clip on your pants pocket, belt, or gear bag (tip-up carry).
- Maintenance: Thanks to the corrosion resistance of MagnaCut and Cerakote, the knife requires minimal maintenance. Simply rinse off dirt, mud, and gunpowder residue with water, dry the knife, and periodically apply a drop of precision oil around the pivot point and the AXIS Lock springs. Resharpening is best done with diamond or ceramic sharpening stones.
