Benchmade 18060BT-01 Adira

There is no need to change something that works – but you can always update the style. The Benchmade 18060BT-01 Adira™ is the dark variant of Benchmade's popular Adira from their well-regarded Water Series. This folding knife is developed specifically to withstand harsh, wet marine environments. Whether you are a commercial fisherman, a passionate angler or an active boater, the Adira is built for everything from preparing bait and cleaning fish to quickly cutting heavy lines and rope.

CPM-MagnaCut® steel with blue Cerakote® coating

At the heart of the Adira is an uncompromising choice of materials that makes rust a thing of the past:

• Highly stainless MagnaCut® steel (60-62 HRC): The blade is made of CPM-MagnaCut steel. By chemically removing chromium carbides from the microstructure, this steel offers very high corrosion resistance that exceeds practically all other steels available, while holding an excellent edge.

• Cerakote® Blue Titanium finish: The 98.6 mm drop-point blade is protected by an advanced blue/dark Cerakote® coating that gives strong protection against wear and salt water, while giving the knife a crisp maritime look.

• Blue PVD details and paracord lanyard: The design is completed by blue PVD-coated details on the hardware and a practical grey paracord lanyard at the end of the handle for extra security while working.

Non-slip Tempest Gray Grivory® handle for wet hands

When the waves are high and everything is wet, your grip must be completely reliable:

• Tough Grivory handle: The ergonomic handle in Tempest Gray is made of light, very dimensionally stable Grivory polymer. The handle has deep texturing that gives a secure grip even when your hands are covered in water, slime or fish oil.

• Good weight balance: Despite the large, robust blade of almost 100 mm, the folding knife weighs just 119.92 g, making it comfortable to carry and work with for long periods.

AXIS® Lock and fully Ambidextrous

The knife has Benchmade's well-known AXIS® Lock. The steel bar across the frame locks the blade mechanically and solidly, so the open knife feels as strong as a fixed blade. The lock allows fast, smooth one-handed operation. As the mechanism runs across the frame and the included Deep Carry pocket clip is reversible, the Adira is fully Ambidextrous and works equally well for right- and left-handed users.

The knife is Made in USA in top quality and is a solid investment for anyone who refuses to let their gear limit them on the water.
