Benchmade 748 Narrows Folding Knife, M390 Satin Blade, Gray Titanium Handles
Benchmade
Designed by British knifemaker Mike Read and named after his Internet forum moniker “Pie in the Sky,” the Spyderco PITS was a truly unique non-locking folding knife. Its precision-machined solid titanium scales featured integral spring arms joined by a hardened pin. The pressure of this mechanism stabilized the knife’s blade in the open position and was reinforced by the user’s grip. This limited-edition Sprint Run resurrection of the PITS showcases a full-flat ground blade crafted from Böhler-Uddeholm M390 particle metallurgy stainless steel. This high-performance alloy offers very high wear and corrosion resistance yet remains extremely easy to sharpen. Both the blade and handle of this remarkable knife feature handsome stonewashed finishes, and a reversible deep-pocket carry clip provides a choice of left or right-side tip-up carry.
