The Benchmade Axis Stryker II 909SBK is the black, partially serrated tanto version of the classic Allen Elishewitz Stryker folder. It features a 3.57" 154CM combo-edge tanto blade with a low-glare black coating, an ambidextrous AXIS lock, and textured black G10 scales, giving you both clean push cuts and aggressive serrations in one hard-use tactical knife.
Overview
The 154CM combo tanto blade is hardened to 58-60 HRC and combines a plain forward edge with a serrated rear section for cutting rope, webbing, and other tough materials. The reinforced tanto tip is built for piercing. Dual thumb-studs open it from either hand, and the AXIS lock holds firm until you retract the spring-loaded bar. At 8.29" open and 4.72" closed, the Benchmade Axis Stryker II 909SBK weighs about 4.38 oz.
