Description: The Benchmade 980SBK Turret is a heavy duty folder that is sure to be a tactical standard for years to come. Quality materials combined with Benchmade's famous AXIS lock make for a folding knife that is in it for the long haul! We have first production models #559 and #564.
The blade is made from CPM-S30V stainless steel. CPM-S30V is an American-made and developed premium grade stainless steel created especially for knives. It is a powdered metallurgical steel with a uniform carbide distribution and clean steel properties. This gives the blade superior corrosion resistance, toughness, and edge retention to conventionally processed steels. Dual ambidextrous thumbstuds make one-handed opening and closing a breeze.
Benchmade's AXIS lock system provides effortless one-handed opening and closing. Milled grooves in the handle improve grip while adding a modern flair to the design. The liners, hardware, and screws have all been black coated. Includes a reversible deep carry pocket clip mounted for tip-up carry.
