Back in black and built for action — the Benchmade 551SBK Griptilian® is a workhorse with serious credentials. Designed by Mel Pardue, this everyday legend combines comfort, control, and strength with a part-serrated CPM-S30V stainless steel blade, a durable Grivory® handle, and the rock-solid AXIS® Lock. A knife you can rely on day after day, whether you’re on the job or off the grid.
Big jobs demand a blade that won’t fold under pressure. Cheap knives dull fast, slip in hand, and let you down when you need them most.
✔️ CPM-S30V Stainless Steel – 88 mm drop point blade with black coating and part-serrated edge
✔️ AXIS® Lock – Smooth, ambidextrous, and secure operation
✔️ Grivory® Handle – Lightweight yet durable, engineered for control
✔️ Versatile Use – Cuts rope, heavy materials, and daily tasks with ease
✔️ Made in USA – Quality craftsmanship with Benchmade’s lifetime support
A folding knife that balances rugged strength with all-day carry comfort — the Griptilian® is ready for whatever work or adventure throws at you.
Confidence in every cut. Reliability in every task.
