The Benchmade Gravitator is one dangerous looking knife—3.5″ long blade and measures 8.28″ overall. The Gravitator series was designed by renowned knife maker, Mike Snody, and, although today the Gravitator is already discontinued, it remains as one of Benchmade’s all-time classics.
The modified Wharncliff blade, which is also available as part serrated, is made from 154CM stainless stell that is 1.45″ thick. The blade’s hardness is rated at Rockwell 58-60, and also has two thumb studs for left or right-handed opening, as well as a notched thumb rest. “Snody” is etched on the opposite side of Benchmade’s logo.
The handle is black G10, measures 4.77″ closed and has G10 bolsters. It has dual titanium liners and locks. A pocket clip for tip down carry is included and is also removable.
Model #: BM-425S
If you can still find one, these knives sell for around $100-130.
