The **Benchmade Proper 318-1** is the first-ever slipjoint made by Benchmade. You open this gentleman’s knife with two hands and it doesn’t lock: it has a slipjoint. Ideal as a stylish gentleman’s knife you can use to peel an apple or cut a nice piece of steak. Also good to know: you can legally carry a slipjoint with you in many places in Europe.


The blade has a classic style. The contours are nothing like the rest of the modern Benchmade range. The clippoint blade you see here might remind you of the classic Barlow style traditionals. In terms of steel Benchmade chose CPM S30V steel. A modern powdered type of steel, specifically designed for high-end pocket knives. Within the category of slipjoints you won’t come across that many pocket knives with such great steel. In addition, enthusiasts will definitely appreciate that Benchmade has enhanced the Proper with a stop-pin that prevents the spring from closing. A definite improvement.


The handle is made from red G10. An incredibly strong and light-weight material. The deep-red colour is very stylish.

General information

We always measure the blade height at the highest part of the blade.

Blade height

We always measure the blade length ourselves. This is the length of the blade from the tip to the front of the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade length

value_blade_length_edge

The length of the cutting edge is measured from the tip to the start of the edge. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Cutting edge length

We always measure the blade thickness at the thickest part of the blade. Often just before the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade thickness

value_closed_length

We always weigh a product as bare as possible. Knives and axes always without their sheath, lights (if possible) without their battery. For knife sets we measure the entire weight. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specifications.

Weight

value_steel_hardness

We measure the sharpening angle ourselves. This value is the angle per side.  So 20º means that the total angle of the edge is 40º. Please note that knives are almost always sharpened by hand, even in factories. This value is therefore only an indication of a single tool measured by us. You are always free to choose your own sharpening angle. [Learn more about sharpening angles](/en/ct/sharpening-angles-explained.htm).

In terms of grind we are talking about how the complete blade thickness extends into the edge. Want to learn more about grinds? [Read all about grinds on knives](/en/ct/knife-grinds.htm).
