The Benchmade Bedlam is probably one of the most Iconic Knives Benchmade has ever created. This Automatic knife is a First Production Run Knife, and its number is 088/500. The Bedlam boasts a large 4" upswept clip point blade that closely resembles a scimitar because it was originally designed for the security forces of ancient kings. This Black Class automatic comes with textured G-10 handle scales and Benchmade's patented auto AXIS locking mechanism--providing quick action and a solid lock up. Additional features include a small thumb ramp with jimping on the blade for precise cutting measures and a back spacer that protrudes enough to form a pointed strike pommel that can certainly double as a glass breaker. This model, the 8600BK, features a black finished blade made up of 154CM stainless steel and the pocket clip is designed for tip up carry only but is eligible for left or right hand carry options. Made in the USA.
