Benchmade 865BK-01 Mini Bedlam

The Benchmade 865BK-01 Mini Bedlam is a fierce looking tactical folder, pared-down in size for more practical daily carry while keeping the tactical look and feel of its full-size counterpart. Boasting premium CPM-S90V blade steel with a graphite Cerakote finish, the upswept scimitar blade shape (Plain Edge) is optimized for hooking and slicing. The layered coyote/black/OD green G-10 handle with black finish hardware is designed for a strong and secure hold for bigger cutting tasks and quick movements, and it’s aggressively textured with detailed milling, serrations, and a chamfered backspacer, providing a unique and superior grip texture that flows with the curvature of the handle. Complete with a reliable manual AXIS (Cross Bar) lock mechanism, and a black finished tip up pocket clip.

CPM-S90V Steel: CPM-S90V steel is well known for its wear-resistance. According to Crucible, S90V is used in plastic feed screws, valve components, nozzles, slitters, cutters, gear pumps, pelletizing equipment, bearings, and other hard use parts. In the knifemaking world, S90V is legendary for its near perfect edge-retention. It is close to impossible to dull a blade made of CPM S90V. That being said, you need the patience of a saint to sharpen it, however infrequent that may be. S90V is in the upper echelon of knifemaking “super steels”, as is evident by the hefty price tag that accompanies the knives to which it adorns.
