Adamas Fixed Blade Knife Black from Benchmade is specially designed for tactical and military use where great demands are placed on the knife’s versatility for the most demanding tasks. A new era of Adamas has arrived redesigned to be stronger than ever before. The blade is made of CPM-CruWear steel with a “Cobalt Black” finish which offers increased corrosion resistance and durability at the front and center of the blade. The sheath has been redesigned to attach with MALICE CLIPS allowing users to carry the knife on a MOLLE or standard belt. Adamas offers an air-hardened non-stainless tool steel that has improved toughness and wear resistance even compared to steel types such as D2 steel. The knife’s CPM-CruWear material has vanadium which forms extremely hard vanadium carbines. These strengthen the edge retention of the knife together with tungsten and molybdenum which help to increase the working hardness without reducing the toughness of the material. Maintenance of the knife Regular maintenance helps make your Benchmade Knife yours for life. If you choose to sharpen your blade yourself you should avoid grinding wheels and other powerful machines. All steel regardless of price and quality can rust over time so it is important to keep your Knife dry and lubricated. If stains or rust occur a metal polish will often take care of it. Avoid dishwashers but instead make sure to hand-wash your Benchmade Knife under warm water only with washing-up liquid and dry thoroughly.
