Frequently Asked Questions
Why is the Benchmade Griptilian so popular?
The Griptilian platform balances size, weight, ergonomics, and the famously smooth AXIS lock, and the Benchmade Mini Griptilian 556SBK distills that formula into a lighter, office-friendly 2.91" format that disappears in a pocket while still handling real cutting work.
What steel does the Benchmade Mini Griptilian 556SBK use?
The Benchmade Mini Griptilian 556SBK uses American-made 154CM stainless steel hardened to 58-60 HRC, a proven Benchmade workhorse steel with a great balance of edge retention, easy sharpening, and corrosion resistance. The black coating adds extra protection.
What handle material does the Benchmade Mini Griptilian 556SBK have?
The Benchmade Mini Griptilian 556SBK features a black Noryl GTX handle, a tough glass-reinforced polymer that keeps the knife extremely light at 2.56 oz while providing a textured, secure grip.

Yes. Benchmade's LifeSharp service provides free factory resharpening for the life of the knife, and Benchmade's technicians can properly service the partially serrated edge on the Benchmade Mini Griptilian 556SBK.
Is the Benchmade Mini Griptilian 556SBK made in the USA?
