Benchmade Vector – 3.60″ CPM-S30V Satin Spear Point Blade, Black G10 Handle – 495

Product Description

The Benchmade 495 Vector is a full-size manual folder built around a 3.60-inch CPM-S30V spear point — a symmetrical blade profile with a centered tip that delivers equal strength and geometry on both the top and bottom edge, favored by buyers who want a clean, purpose-built folder that carries its size without looking tactical.

The blade is CPM-S30V, satin finished with a hollow grind. CPM-S30V holds a working edge through months of daily use, resists corrosion without a coating, and sharpens easily at home — the right steel for a full-size EDC that gets used. The spear point’s centered tip is stronger than a drop point at the same blade length and provides a balanced geometry for both slicing and piercing tasks. Black G10 handle scales are rigid, moisture-resistant, and textured for a secure grip without being aggressive. The Liner Lock secures the blade open; the thumb stud deploys one-handed.
