The Benchmade 537SGY-1 Bailout is a folding tactical knife from the "black class" series, equipped with a CPM-M4 steel tanto blade, aluminium hammer and anodised aluminium sheath.The Benchmade Bailout has a tactical design, accentuated by the distinctive shape of the blade and the military colours of the aluminium sheath. The knife features a Japanese tanto profile combination blade made from tough CPM-M4 tool steel.Premium steelThe CPM-M4 tool steel is high carbon, hardened to 62-64 HRC hardness. CPM-M4 is a corrosion sensitive carbon steel, so don't forget to maintain the blade properly and regularly.When choosing a knife made of this hard steel, you should use a diamond sharpener, which will facilitate and speed up the sharpening process.Tactical bladeThe tanto blade and the combination blade (partially serrated) provide easy penetration, smooth cutting and a wide range of applications.The blade is coated with a grey Cerakote thermosetting paint which has high wear resistance and protects the steel from corrosion.Easy to unfoldThe blade can be opened conveniently with one hand using the double-sided dowel (anodised aluminium). This method allows right and left handers to comfortably open the blade and use the knife without removing gloves.Reliable lockThe blade lock is a reliable shaft lock, the flagship of the Benchmade brand , which is appreciated for its high load resistance, dirt resistance and ease of use.Lightweight sheathThe knife is equipped with green anodized 6061-T6 aluminum, which is fixed to steel liners responsible for the rigidity and strength of the structure. One of the advantages of aluminium, in addition to its durability and the possibility of precision machining, is its light weight, which inevitably makes the knife comfortable to carry and use.The non-slip texture of the liners and the flaring at the bottom of the handle make the knife firm and comfortable in the hand, regardless of its size. The wide, high-mounted clip, which can be reversed (left/right), allows the knife to be carried discreetly in a pocket or tactical gear.The handle is equipped with an aluminum insert and a carbide tang that acts as a glass breaker and allows hammer strikes.TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONSSheet informationBlade profile TantoSteel hardness [HRC] 62-64Blade lock type AXIS® lockKnife type foldingBlade type thumb typeSteel type carbon - CPM®M4 Additional informationClip for transportCase material metal - anodised aluminiumCorrosion resistance averageDull resistance very highCut type flat Application (normal use)EDC,tacticalDimensionsTotal length [mm] 205Blade length [mm] 86Length after folding [mm] 120Blade thickness [mm] 2.3Weight [g] 76WarrantyGuarantee period Lifetime manufacturer's warranty
