Benchmade Osborne 940S – The Iconic 940 with a Combo Edge
The Benchmade 940S Osborne takes the classic 940 formula, a satin CPM-S30V modified reverse tanto blade over a slim green anodized 6061-T6 aluminum handle, and adds a partially serrated combo edge for rope, webbing, and other fibrous cutting jobs. Designed by Warren Osborne, the 940 family is highly regarded as one of the most quintessential EDC folding knives of all time. The AXIS lock is fully ambidextrous, with dual thumb studs and a reversible tip-up pocket clip.
