Benchmade Knife Lowden Crater Blue Aluminum Folding Knife

Sleek, modern, and fast. Inspired by the symmetry and circular pommel of traditional daggers, we're driving into flippers once again with a compact and fidgety new addition in the 491 Lowden™. Featuring the AXIS® Lock flipper mechanism for a smooth, snappy deployment, the 491 wields an M390 spear-point blade built for a fine, long-lasting edge. Outfitted with lightweight, milled Crater Blue anodized aluminum handle scales which offer a palm-filling grip, along with a new deep-carry pocket clip and FDE accents, the Lowden™ is an ultra-modern flipper built for performance and style.

Product Features

• Spear-Point Blade - Known for its symmetrical shape and strong tip designed for piercing performance. Traditionally, spear-points are double-sided, but those knives are more specifically referred to as daggers.
• M390 Stainless Steel Blade - A super-performance, powdered-metal blade steel with exceptional edge retention and corrosion resistance. Takes a very fine edge.
• 6061-T6 Aluminum Handle - Exceptionally tough, yet lightweight. Aluminum can be anodized in many colors and milled with fine detail. It also naturally resists corrosion.
• Manual Axis Lock Flipper Opening Action - The blade is manually deployed into the open position by pulling back or depressing the flipper tab.
