Product Description

The Benchmade Claymore 9070SBK-1 is the ranger green Grivory variant of the serrated 9070 Claymore folder — D2 tool steel with a black coating, serrated drop point blade, and ranger green handle for buyers who want the Claymore's hard-use steel with serrated bite for cordage and synthetic materials in a field-appropriate color.

The blade is D2, the high-carbon high-chromium tool steel used across the Claymore family — exceptional wear resistance and edge retention compared to fully stainless production steels, at the cost of regular oiling and drying to prevent surface oxidation. The black coating reduces reflectivity and protects the blade surface between maintenance cycles. The serrated edge handles rope, webbing, and synthetic materials efficiently under pressure. Ranger green Grivory (glass-filled nylon) handle scales give this variant a field and outdoor aesthetic distinct from the cobalt black Grivory of the 9070SBK. AXIS Assist deploys via thumb stud with spring assistance — not an automatic, legal where automatics are restricted.

Ships same or next business day from Knifeworks in Columbia, Louisiana.
