Art with an Edge, Legendary Innovation
Benchmade’s collaboration with Bill McHenry and Jason Williams—renowned custom knifemakers with watchmaking roots—has produced some of the most iconic designs in modern knife history. Responsible for the creation of the game-changing AXIS lock on the original 710 in 1999, McHenry and Williams continue to embody their philosophy of “art with an edge on it.” This large folder features a stylish recurve drop point blade crafted from mighty M390 stainless steel with a stonewashed finish, paired with a lightweight black 6061-T6 aluminum handle. Easy to carry, dependable, and steeped in history, this knife is a testament to Benchmade’s pursuit of lasting innovation.
