At roughly 2.45 oz it carries easily, and the partially serrated edge makes it the practical pick if you cut a lot of rope, webbing, or strapping.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe plain forward section still handles slicing and detail work, while the serrations keep biting through fibrous material long after a plain edge would start to slip. Deployment is a side-mounted push button, and the deep-carry clip reverses for left or right hand tip-up carry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3.40\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Steel:\u003c\/strong\u003e CPM-S30V stainless\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Style:\u003c\/strong\u003e Drop point, combo edge (partially serrated)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Finish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black coated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black textured Grivory with stainless steel liners\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Push-button automatic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.45 oz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePocket Clip:\u003c\/strong\u003e Reversible deep-carry, tip-up\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Made in the USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat is an automatic knife?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn automatic knife, sometimes called a switchblade, deploys its blade under spring pressure when you press a button or slide. The Benchmade 4400SBK Casbah is a side-opening push-button automatic: press the button in the handle and the 3.40\" CPM-S30V blade snaps open and locks. That is different from an assisted opener, which still needs you to start the blade moving by hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eAre automatic knives legal to carry?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAutomatic knife laws vary by state, county, and city, and some places restrict blade length or ownership rather than banning automatics outright. Federal law also limits interstate sale of automatics. Check your current local and state laws before carrying the Benchmade 4400SBK Casbah, since it is a true automatic knife.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhy choose the combo edge on the Benchmade 4400SBK Casbah?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Benchmade 4400SBK Casbah uses a partially serrated combo edge, which is the better choice if you regularly cut rope, cord, webbing, or strapping. If you mostly do clean slicing, the plain-edge Benchmade 4400BK Casbah is easier to maintain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWho can buy an automatic knife?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt depends on where you live. Many states allow any adult to purchase and carry an automatic, while others limit sales to military, law enforcement, or emergency personnel. Going Gear ships the Benchmade 4400SBK Casbah in accordance with applicable federal, state, and local restrictions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat steel is the Benchmade 4400SBK Casbah?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Benchmade 4400SBK Casbah uses CPM-S30V stainless steel, a powder-metallurgy blade steel known for strong edge retention and good corrosion resistance. Being stainless, it does not need the oiling routine a carbon tool steel would.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat is LifeSharp and is it included?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLifeSharp is Benchmade's free lifetime sharpening and reconditioning service. Send the Benchmade 4400SBK Casbah back to Benchmade and they will clean, oil, adjust, and re-sharpen it to a factory edge.
