HELLO!
Welcome to Benchmade. Whether you are already one of our

many esteemed Benchmade customers or, checking us out

what we have to offer you. As you thumb through — know that
the multi-talented and highly dedicated team of Benchmade
employees put heart and soul into every knife built. That ’s not
the easy way— that is the Benchmade way.
Each year brings many great new products from Benchmade

and this year is no exception. For starters, the new Nitrous™
assist opener mechanism gets things moving in a hurry, and in
patented Benchmade fashion. I am also pleased to introduce
our newest custom design team member Bob Lum whose
designs offer a “hole” new look to the line up. And to round it
out, some customer favorites have been specially retooled to
shake things up a bit.
Whatever your specialty cutlery needs, I realize you have

many choices when it comes to purchasing knives. Know that

610 RUKUS ®
615 mini-RUKUS ®
BLACKWOOD design
Back by popular demand, the Rukus

is anything but small. Big on form,
function and that “wow” factor. The
Rukus is certainly a crowd pleaser. And
for 2007 we roll out a little brother, in
the Mini-Rukus. Both are Blackwood
designed with the power of AXIS®
mechanics. Both use a two-part handle
assembly with the ability to semi-
customize the handle scales as you see
fit. If you are big on performance and
style, the Rukus and Mini-Rukus are
certainly worth their weight!

pardue design
Improve your “gripping” power… Built
on the overwhelming success of the
Griptilian folders, the fixed blade design
can hold its own. Molded handle scales
with “grippy” soft rubber inserts are a
nice combination applied to a proven
handle shape. The drop-pointed, full-
grind blade packs more utility than you
will ever need no matter how far you
venture off the path. Look to
the Grip to fix your outdoor
knife demands.

will it be reliable when you need
it most? These are all essential
considerations when it comes to
knife mechanics.
Benchmade offers several
mechanisms, from patented
exclusives including the unparal-
leled AXIS, to more traditional
lock back designs. It all comes
down to your level of desired
function.
Locking Mechanisms &

ASSEMBLies
AXIS ®
Another patented Benchmade exclusive, the Rolling

Lock utilizes a sizable, notched lock-pin which secures
against the blade tang when engaged. To disengage,
a spring actuated thumb button on the right handle
side is drawn back to rotate the lock- pin and free the
blade. InDraft, a patented exclusive, is a combination
of a slotted liner and a pin in the blade tang working in
tandem to generate an inward inertia when closing the
blade. This results in one of the safest blade detents
available today.
LEVITATOR ®
A patented Benchmade exclusive, the knife handle
scale/liner is cut to create a spring system which is
used to leverage a lock-pin in and out of a notch in the
tang of the blade. This spring/pin system effectively
locks the blade both in the open and closed positions.
A patented Benchmade exclusive, AXIS has been turning (See picture on page 52)
heads and winning fans ever since its introduction. A
100-percent ambidextrous design, AXIS gets its function
from a small, hardened steel bar which rides forward
and back in a slot machined into both steel liners.
The bar extends to both sides of the knife, spanning
the liners and positioned over the rear of the blade.
It engages a ramped, tang portion of the knife blade
benchmade.com 51
OPTIMISER ®
MODIFIED LOCKING-LINER
Another patented Benchmade exclusive, which
“optimizes” the knife mechanism if the user chooses
to do so… A steel torsion bar running the length of the
inside handle spine is secured in place and contacts a
surface area of the blade tang. As the blade is closed
the torsion bar is tensioned against the blade tang,
then as the user rotates the blade open to a 30-degree
angle, the torsion bar takes over and continues the
blade opening process on its own. The huge advantages
to the Optimiser design over other similar concepts,
is that the blade must be rotated open to beyond a
30-degree angle, which offers added user control. And
even more amazing, the Optimiser can be added or
removed at the discretion of the user and the knife/
mechanism still functions normally. The choice is yours.
BILT® System
The basic principle is an integral locking bar within the

knife liner being stress bent, enabling it to spring into
position behind the rear tang of the blade when the
blade is opened. The locking bar wedges against the
rear of the blade, locking it open until you physically
push it clear and close the blade (locking-liners are A patented Benchmade exclusive, the BILT System

the best of both, and we offer it in a variety of knives.

MONOLOCK positions a stop bar parallel to and in direct line with
the blade at the upper back or rear tang of the blade to
lock the blade open. Basically, as the blade is rotated
open, the spring tensioned, center pivoted stop bar
tracks around the circular portion of the blade tang
until it drops or locks into the notched out tang. And to
release the lock, the exposed portion of the stop bar in
the handle back is depressed into the handle, pivoting
the stop bar out, releasing the locked blade. This style
of mechanism requires two hands to safely close the
blade although you may still easily open the blade
single-handed if desired.
NITROUS™
The monolock mechanism is basically a locking-liner on

steroids. The knife liner is one in the same as the knife
handle, and thus it is designed and made to function
as the locking mechanism. Subsequently, a thicker
material is used to provide enough surface area to be a
functional handle, and in turn creates a larger surface
area to lock the blade with. If executed properly, the
monolock design rates very highly in strength and
function.
LOCK BACK
Another patented Benchmade exclusive, the Nitrous

boosts the blade with ease. As the blade is closed the
two torsion arms which run the length of the handle
liners are secured in place and make contact with the
blade tang. As tensioned against the blade tang, the
user rotates the blade open to a 30-degree angle, the
torsion arms take over and continue the blade opening
process on its own. The huge advantages to the Nitrous
design over other similar concepts, is that the blade
must be rotated open to beyond a 30-degree angle,
which offers added user control. The choice is yours.
