The Benchmade Adamas represents the pinnacle of tactical folding knife engineering, earning its name from the Greek word meaning "unconquerable." Designed by renowned custom knifemaker Shane Sibert with input from military personnel who needed something tougher than standard tactical folders, this legendary series delivers uncompromising durability across three distinct formats.
The Adamas series offers the full-size Benchmade 275 for maximum capability, the compact Mini Adamas 273 for easier everyday carry, and the ultralight Benchmade Adamas Fixed Blade for those who prefer fixed blade reliability. Each model features premium blade steel delivering exceptional edge retention and wear resistance even under brutal conditions.
The signature AXIS Lock mechanism provides rock-solid blade security with proven durability. In strength testing, this mechanism withstood 1,717 inch-pounds of force before controlled failure, demonstrating why military personnel and first responders trust their lives to this overbuilt design. Textured G10 handles ensure confident grip control in any conditions, from wet environments to gloved operation.
Built to handle serious abuse while remaining surprisingly practical for daily tasks, the Adamas bridges the gap between tactical necessity and everyday utility. Whether you choose the full-size model for maximum blade length or the Mini Adamas for discrete carry, you're getting a knife genuinely engineered for situations where failure isn't an option.
