If you’re looking for a classic gentleman’s knife with modern features and materials, the Benchmade 601 Tengu Flipper is a solid and snappy option. Designed by Jared Oeser, this classy flipper knife was designed to take your everyday carry’s style above and beyond while still providing you with top of the line cutting performance. The 2.77″ blade features a modified tanto shape made out of premium CPM-20CV steel. This metal has a hardness rating of 59-61 HRC, making it able to retain an edge for much longer than regular steels. In the handles, you’ll find contoured G-10 scales for a smooth, but comfortable grip. A liner lock holds the blade securely while in use, and when you’re done with it, you can fold it closed and store it in its double-stitched leather pouch, included with the knife. Premium materials, a beautiful design, and a classy sheath make this gent’s knife a solid addition to any EDC.
