Answers to the most common questions about the Benchmade Mini Claymore Auto Serrated Ranger Green (9071SBK-03).
How does the Mini Claymore compare to the full-size Claymore?+
The Mini Claymore (9071SBK-03) features a 3.00" CPM-D2 blade, a 4.18" closed length, and weighs just 2.56 oz, making it noticeably more compact and lightweight for easy pocket carry compared to the full-size Claymore (3.60" blade, 5.00" closed, 3.50 oz).
How does the automatic deployment and safety switch function?+
The Mini Claymore features a side-opening push-button automatic system. Pressing the button fires the blade open rapidly via an internal coil spring. An integrated red-indicator slide safety on the handle spine prevents accidental activation when engaged.
What is CPM-D2 steel?+
CPM-D2 is Crucible's powder metallurgy version of conventional D2 tool steel. The CPM process creates a uniform carbide distribution, significantly improving toughness, wear resistance, and edge retention while making it easier to sharpen.
