Benchmade 275GY-1 ADAMAS® Knife

{"reviews":[{"id":7593376,"locale":"en_US","rating":5,"title":"Great in the hand","text":"Out of the pouch, this knife is perfect in a pocket and feels great in the hand, open or closed. All the workmanship is solid and precise, like you would expect from Benchmade. Handle is smooth textured but it holds well with the very well placed jimping. Opens and closes smoothly and locks tight. Cuts like a dream and holds its edge really well. I have long, thin hands and this knife fits well, with room to spare. I’ll find out if it is as durable as my other Benchmade knives this Winter. I’ll never retire my old ones but this is my new EDC pocket carry.","textLength":561,"csFlag":false,"inappropriateFlag":false,"reviewedFlag":false,"autoModerated":false,"published":true,"incentivized":false,"upVotes":0,"downVotes":0,"orderId":null,"dimensions":[],"responses":[],"tags":[],"media":{"photo":[],"video":[],"audio":[]},"user":{"nickName":"Patrick M.","firstName":null,"lastName":null,"emailAddress":null,"externalId":null,"city":null,"state":null,"country":null,"ageRange":null,"badge":null,"shopperProfiles":[]},"reviewedDate":null,"purchaseDate":null,"dateCreated":"2025-11-28T00:00:00-05:00","customData":[],"incentiveType":null,"campaign":null,"deviceFingerprint":null,"topics":[{"name":"edge sharpness","score":0.48},{"name":"blade steel","score":0.4},{"name":"durability","score":0.44},{"name":"pocket carry","score":0.58},{"name":"everyday carry performance","score":0.41},{"name":"handle comfort","score":0.51},{"name":"cutting performance","score":0.53},{"name":"construction quality","score":0.54},{"name":"pocket clip","score":0.42}],"syndication":{"sourceName":"Benchmade","siteUrl":"https://www.benchmade.com/","logoUrl":"https://images.turnto.com/site/syndicationlogos/4208_LH48.png"},"catalogItems":[{"sku":"3973-275GY-1","title":"Benchmade 275GY-1 ADAMAS® Knife","url":"https://www.scheels.com/p/3973-275GY-1","category":"hunting-knives-tools-tactical-knives","reviewCount":85,"ratingCount":85,"averageRating":4.8,"ratingBreakdown":{"1":1,"2":3,"3":0,"4":3,"5":78},"active":true,"attributes":[]}]},{"id":7593375,"locale":"en_US","rating":5,"title":"The Axis Lock Fortress: Benchmade Adamas First Impressions","text":"I. The First Grab \nThe Benchmade Adamas arrives not as a folder, but as a commitment. This knife is proof that Benchmade believes in the concept of \"overkill\"—and frankly, we appreciate the dedication. If your day job involves more than just slicing tape, or if you simply prefer your tools to feel like they could survive a small orbital collision, the Adamas is checking the boxes and then incinerating them.\nII. Unboxing & Presentation\nThe moment the Adamas hits your palm, you understand why the shipping weight was higher than expected. It’s big and heavy, immediately recalibrating your expectations for pocket carry. The heft is reassuring, but let's be honest—it makes you feel more manly because it demands respect. It barely fits my medium-sized hand, but it fits, which means the ergos are aggressive and purposeful, not designed for the dainty work of a gallery opening.\nIII. The Tactile Report (Action & Feel)\nThe action on this particular unit is a masterclass in modern tolerance stacking. Despite the massive size of the blade, the heavy-duty Axis Lock engages smoothly without requiring a break-in period. This is the quality distinction: a knife built this tough shouldn't feel rough from the factory. It opens with an authoritative, deep thunk—the sound of a vault door closing on cheap pretenders. The handle scales (G10) feel secure but not pocket shredding and the nice coating is uniform and robust across the blade, suggesting it’s ready to face the abuses of the real world.\nIV. Precision Check \nBenchmade didn't choose the steel; they chose a mission profile. This blade features Cruwear, a high-performance, air-hardening steel that puts maximum toughness at the absolute forefront. It’s a deliberate trade-off, prioritizing resistance to chipping and catastrophic failure—the things that matter when you are relying on a tool deep in the weeds—over vanity edge retention. The geometry respects this choice. The massive stock, combined with the utterly bomb-proof Axis Lock, ensures that the knife’s structure is equal to its heavy-duty materials. There is zero play, just the relentless confidence of a truly integral design.\nV. Tech Specs & Context\nThe sheer volume of the Adamas ensures that the 4-inch-plus blade never feels compromised. The generous HRC rating achieved by Cruwear ensures that while the knife isn't dainty, its working edge is formidable. This knife isn't trying to be discreet; it’s staking its claim as the go-to fixed-blade alternative for those who need a folder that hits like a sledgehammer.\nVI. The Early Verdict\nThe Adamas is the knife equivalent of driving a tank to a street fight—it’s unnecessary, wildly excessive, and profoundly satisfying. It earns its weight and its reputation by delivering uncompromising toughness right out of the box, with an action that defies its own rugged intentions. This knife doesn't ask permission; it takes charge.\nWho is this for? The user who treats \"toughness\" as a core metric and needs a folding companion capable of serious abuse. It is the perfect blend of technical precision and unapologetic brute force.","textLength":3107,"csFlag":false,"inappropriateFlag":false,"reviewedFlag":false,"autoModerated":false,"published":true,"incentivized":false,"upVotes":0,"downVotes":0,"orderId":null,"dimensions":[],"responses":[],"tags":[],"media":{"photo":[],"video":[],"audio":[]},"user":{"nickName":"David L.","firstName":null,"lastName":null,"emailAddress":null,"externalId":null,"city":null,"state":null,"country":null,"ageRange":null,"badge":null,"shopperProfiles":[]},"reviewedDate":null,"purchaseDate":null,"dateCreated":"2025-11-28T00:00:00-05:00","customData":[],"incentiveType":null,"campaign":null,"deviceFingerprint":null,"topics":[{"name":"edge sharpness","score":0.5},{"name":"blade steel","score":0.62},{"name":"pocket carry","score":0.72},{"name":"everyday carry performance","score":0.6},{"name":"construction quality","score":0.47}],"syndication":{"sourceName":"Benchmade","siteUrl":"https://www.benchmade.com/","logoUrl":"https://images.turnto.com/site/syndicationlogos/4208_LH48.png"},"catalogItems":[{"sku":"3973-275GY-1","title":"Benchmade 275GY-1 ADAMAS® Knife","url":"https://www.scheels.com/p/3973-275GY-1","category":"hunting-knives-tools-tactical-knives","reviewCount":85,"ratingCount":85,"averageRating":4.8,"ratingBreakdown":{"1":1,"2":3,"3":0,"4":3,"5":78},"active":true,"attributes":[]}]},{"id":7593374,"locale":"en_US","rating":5,"title":"The Adamas","text":"If you want a knife that will be buried with you.
