Product Description

The Benchmade Casbah Auto is a compact automatic folder built on Benchmade's AXIS Lock platform — side-button deployment with a 3.40-inch CPM-S30V drop point and a glass-filled Grivory handle that keeps the weight down to 2.45 oz for buyers who want automatic-speed EDC in a package that carries like a lightweight manual.

The blade is CPM-S30V with a black DLC coating and plain edge. CPM-S30V delivers solid edge retention and corrosion resistance in a steel that's easy to touch up at home — a practical choice for an automatic that will see daily use rather than occasional carry. The drop point profile keeps the tip strong for utility tasks while the plain edge handles everything from box cutting to food prep cleanly. Black Grivory (glass-filled nylon) handle scales are lightweight, resistant to moisture and solvents, and rigid enough to give the AXIS Lock a stable platform. Deployment is via a side-mounted button; the AXIS Lock closes ambidextrously one-handed with no blade exposure on the stroke.

Note: Automatic knives are restricted or prohibited in some states. Verify your local laws before purchasing. Ships same or next business day from Knifeworks in Columbia, Louisiana.
