Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the Adamas stronger than other folding knives?
The Adamas uses thicker blade stock at 0.160 inches, reinforced liners, and tough G10 handle scales. This construction creates one of the strongest AXIS lock folders Benchmade produces, designed specifically for hard-use applications.
Is the MALICE clip compatible with standard MOLLE gear?
Yes, the deep-carry MALICE clip is designed to integrate with MOLLE webbing systems on plate carriers, chest rigs, and tactical packs. The clip is reversible for tip-up carry and positions the knife for quick access.
How does D2 steel perform for tactical use?
D2 is a tool steel that holds an edge well and resists wear. Heat-treated to 60-62 HRC, it provides good edge retention for cutting tasks while remaining tough enough for hard-use applications. It requires more effort to sharpen than stainless steels but delivers superior performance.
Does this knife come with a sheath?
The 275BK includes a Cordura sheath in addition to the MALICE clip system, giving you multiple carry options for different mission requirements.
What is the warranty on Benchmade knives?
Benchmade provides a limited lifetime warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship. Their LifeSharp service also provides free sharpening and maintenance for the life of the knife.
