Benchmade Seven Ten 710-25: Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to the most common questions about the Benchmade Seven Ten 25th Anniversary Edition (710-25).
What is the significance of the Benchmade 710 pattern?+
Designed by Bill McHenry and Jason Williams, the original Benchmade 710 was the very first folding knife to feature Benchmade's AXIS Lock. The Seven Ten 710-25 commemorates 25 years of AXIS Lock innovation with modernized materials and refined aluminum construction.
What steel is used for the Benchmade 710-25 blade?+
The 710-25 uses Böhler M390 powder metallurgy stainless steel hardened to 58–61 HRC. M390 is widely recognized as a premium super steel, offering outstanding edge retention, high wear resistance, and extreme corrosion resistance.
What are the benefits of a recurve blade shape?+
A recurve blade features a subtle 'S' curve along the cutting edge. This profile draws material into the cut for enhanced slicing leverage during heavy-duty cutting, cord trimming, and detail slicing.
How does the AXIS Lock work?+
The AXIS Lock uses a hardened steel crossbar that slides forward into place over the blade tang when opened via the dual thumb studs. It provides a rock-solid, fully ambidextrous lockup that allows smooth one-handed opening and closing.
Where is the Benchmade 710-25 made, and what warranty covers it?+
The Benchmade Seven Ten 710-25 is proudly made in Oregon City, Oregon, USA. Benchmade backs the knife with a Limited Lifetime Warranty and free LifeSharp lifetime tuning and sharpening service. Knifeworks does not warranty this product independently.
