Benchmade Meatcrafter is a professional hunting knife made of CPM-154 steel, which was created for trimming game, filleting, precise cutting and boning meat. Designed as a hybrid construction that combines the high cutting properties of skinning knives with the straight and flexible blade found in boning knives. Thanks to this, the Benchmade Meatcrafter is a universal tool that is ideally suited to both the handling wild game as well as in the home and outdoor kitchen tasks.
The Benchmade Meatcrafter is a lightweight fixed blade knife with a full tang design. Knives made of one piece of steel (full tang) are much more resistant to damage and breakage, which is why they are commonly used for heavier tasks by hunters, survival and bushcraft enthusiasts and soldiers. The knife has a thin blade (2.3 mm) with a length of 154 mm, made of hard CPM-154 powder steel with a hardness of 58-61 HRC. CPM-154 is a high carbon, chromium and molybdenum stainless steel that provides the perfect balance of corrosion and wear resistance, strength and toughness These properties make CPM-154 the perfect material for a hunting skinning knife, kitchen knife and outdoor knife .
The knife has a tapered Trailing Point blade. A distinctive feature of such a blade is a slightly raised tip above (or in line with) the back of the knife. The flexible blade modeled on oriental scimitars has a blade with a clearly exposed belly, which affects great efficiency and ease of cutting. Thanks to the 28° SelectEdge™ technology (14° per side), the knife has a thin, perfectly sharp cutting edge that perfectly copes with precise cutting, slicing, filleting and boning of meat. As a result, the Meatcrafter guarantees extremely clean and precise cuts and means that we put much less force into the work.
The handle of the knife is made of rubberized Santoprene material, which, thanks to its non-slip properties and texturing, ensures a secure grip even when wearing gloves. On the back of the handle, a transverse milling was made, which creates a stable point of support for the fingers. This simple convenience allows for comfortable and accurate operation of the knife, which is crucial for the hunter when gutting the game. The profiled grip has lateral grooves and a lanyard attachment.
The set with the knife includes a sheath made of thermoplastic Boltaron. The sheath is very resistant to damage, temperature changes or moisture and will allow you to safely carry and protect the knife from damage. The sheath is compatible with the Tek-lok mounting buckle.
