The Benchmade 3400BK-1 Autocrat is a spring-loaded OTF knife, featuring a CPM-S30V steel blade, and a G-10 milled laminate handle. The Benchmade Autocrat is a modern OTF (out of front) automatic knife, designed for everyday use, and enthusiasts of proven military solutions. Tactical head The knife has a slim dagger profile head , made of American CPM-S30V stainless steel hardened to 58-60 HRC . The blade has two cutting edges and a strong hilt, so it penetrates easily and has good cutting properties. The head is coated with black Teflon , which partially protects the blade from scratches and corrosion and emphasizes the tactical nature of the knife. Immediate readiness for action The blade is unfolded by sliding the mottled slider forward, folding only requires reversing the slider in the opposite direction. The whole process is instantaneous and, most importantly, very safe, as the blade is locked in as many as 3 places after unfolding. High level of safety We also do not have to worry about accidental unfolding of the blade, it is ejected only after the slider is fully and consciously moved. The button has aggressive milling, so the knife can also be operated with gloves . The mounting screws and the slider have a blue finish (anodizing), which contrasts strikingly with the black color scheme and emphasizes the modern character of the knife. Comfortable handle Comfort and ease of handling the knife is ensured by a handle made of milled G-10 laminate in green . The grip has a profiled shape, its surface has been knurled, which guarantees excellent grip to the hand and prevents the knife from slipping. The Benchmade 3400BK-1 Autocrat has a high-set clip (with the possibility of flipping it to the other side), making it easy to discreetly carry the knife in a pocket and attach it to a belt or backpack.
