Celebrating the 25th Anniversary of AXIS lock technology — first introduced in 1999 on the Benchmade model 710 — the new SEVEN | TEN brings back that same large frame and ample cutting power, featuring a stylishly practical drop-point, recurved blade forged of exceptional Fafnir Damasteel. The 710-241 has a premium 6AL-4V Titanium handle with milled aluminum inserts, and FDE PVD-coated thumb studs, backspacer, and pivot rings. Our Gold Class anniversary variant, inspired by its original designers, Bill McHenry & Jason Williams, is the first design Benchmade has ever resurrected, and a guaranteed crowd-pleaser.

Key Features:
- BLADE STYLE. RECURVE DROP POINT. The subtle S-shape of the cutting edge results in a sweeping curve, providing an ample belly in the forward portion of the blade that's good for slicing.
- BLADE STEEL. DAMASTEEL FAFNIR. PREMIUM STAINLESS DAMASCUS (58-60 HRC). With alternating layers of RWL34 and PMC27 alloys, this powder metal 'Damascus" steel mixes excellent toughness and corrosion resistance with a decorative pattern revealed by a hand-dipped acid etching process.
- HANDLE. 6AL-4V TITANIUM. Strong as steel with half the weight. This aerospace-grade super-material is challenging to machine, but well worth the effort. We source our titanium in the USA.
- OPENING ACTION. MANUAL. “Manuals” must be opened 100% from the closed position to the open position by the user
