Benchmade Osborne 940-1 – Stonewash CPM-S90V Reverse Tanto Edge Blade – Carbon Fiber Handle – Blue Back Spacers - Black Tactical Pocket Clip & Hardware - AXIS Lock Manual

Benchmade, a very well-known US-based knife manufacturer, offers a huge number of products that all make for a great pocket knife. From fixed blades, to automatics, to their signature AXIS-lock manuals, Benchmade’s growing list of options continues to impress. Us at SRKT agree that Benchmade offers one of the largest number of solid everyday carry pocket knives. If you find yourself using your blade multiple times throughout the day, and don’t have a Benchmade yet, you should certainly try one out, as they make a model for everybody.

Everyone knows about the Benchmade Osborne. Designed by the world-famous Warren Osborne, the Osborne is considered by many as the #1 best everyday carry pocket knife of all time. Featuring Benchmade’s signature AXIS manual lock allowing for incredibly easy one hand opening and closing with either hand, the Benchmade Osborne is great for nearly everyone. On top of that, the Osborne design comes in the classic full-sized version and the more lightweight mini version. If you own an Osborne, you simply have good taste in knives.

This model Osborne, 940-1, comes with an upgraded carbon fiber handle with a splash of colors coming with the blue finished barrel spacers. The carbon fiber on the Osborne 940-1 is one of the best patterns of CF we’ve personally seen around the market. The reverse tanto blade, featuring premium CPM S90V steel and a plain edge, is finished satin, but depicts a stonewash look. Many will call the blade satin, but to us it looks like a classic stonewash. The pocket clip and hardware are all finished black, other than the stainless AXIS lock. This model Osborne bridges the gap between everyday user knife and a classy-collector’s knife. For the tactical workman or the gentleman alike.
