Benchmade 141SBK Nimravus Tanto 4.5" BK1 Combo Blade, Black Aluminum Handles, Black Sheath

The sleek, the Benchmade Nimravus signifies Benchmade's first fixed blade offering in a long period. The Nimravus was styled by designer Allen Elishewitz to appeal to Benchmade customers which wanted a lot of the exact same features, materials and styling traditionally found with Benchmade folders except in a fixed blade format. While you can see it has a great utility blade shape, and can perform equally well within a diverse selection of uses. But not a geometric Tanto shape, this modern idea design is among the best configurations available today.The 4.5" full-tang blade is ground from 154CM stainless steel and features a false edge that lightens the knife without sacrificing idea power. The Blades are BK1 coated - Benchmade's proprietary knife coating offering excellent deterioration resistance, which exceeds the ASTM-117 requirements for saltwater deterioration resistance. BK1 is a poly-ceramic layer (a blend of polymers and porcelain). It's thinner than the prior blade coating BT2, has equal to or better corrosion resistance (surpassing the ASTM salt squirt standard) and unlike BT2 has much better wear resistance because of the ceramic. Additionally they usually have integrated a few good indexing notches when you look at the spine for sure-grip knife control.One of the most important features of any fixed blade should be the sheath, and this one is no exception. The sheath may also be carried inside, or outside, the waistband. The versatility associated with the knife and its sheath design allows for carry and employ in almost any application that warrants a tough, mid-sized fixed blade.
