Benchmade Knives

Founded in California in 1988, Benchmade started as the Pacific Cutlery Corporation with small with limited resources and had to learn to maximize every step of the knifemaking process to yield the best results. It's paid off for the company beautifully. Benchmade is now one of the top knife manufacturers in the world today.

Benchmade currently operates a technically advanced facility in Oregon City, Oregon where it uses state of the art manufacturing equipment to create high quality knives of many different sorts from folders to fixed blades.

The marriage of modern technology to the traditional knowledge of custom knifemaking techniques makes Benchmade knives unique in the world of knives. Benchmade pocket knives, along with other types of Benchmade folding knives, are considered some of the best available today.

Benchmade creates knives in four main classes, each for special purposes:

• Red Class Benchmade knives are designed for everyday use by average people
• Blue Class knives are designed for those demanding high quality and affordability
• Black Class knives are designed for professionals dealing with life and death situations and are perfect for Law Enforcement, Emergency Services and the Military
• Gold Class knives incorporate artistic and custom design elements and rare materials for knife collectors and hobbyists

Benchmade makes several knives under the Red, Blue, Black and Gold Classes in addition to its HK line - folders geared for survival and personal defense - and its NRA Outdoors line - featuring a wide variety of outdoor, pocket, hunting and personal safety knives.
