Benchmade 315 Successor Slipjoint Pocket Knife — M390 Satin, Crater Blue Aluminum Handle
type: Product
description: The pocket knife is one of the oldest tools in human history. The Benchmade 315 Successor asks what it looks like when you build one with no compromises. The answer is a slim, 2.28 oz slipjoint folder that carries like a gentleman's knife, cuts like a premium EDC tool, and uses steel that most folding knives twice the price can't match. The 2.56" drop point blade is M390 stainless steel, hardened to 58–61 HRC and finished with a satin polish. M390 is a powdered metallurgy super steel from Böhler-Uddeholm — renowned in the knife world for combining outstanding edge retention, exceptional corrosion resistance, and good toughness in a package that takes a razor edge and holds it. Benchmade further sharpens it to their 14° SelectEdge geometry, a factory edge angle that dramatically reduces cutting effort on push cuts and slicing tasks compared to the standard 20° bevels found on most production knives. A minimalist nail nick keeps the blade clean and uncluttered — no thumb hole, no thumb stud, no aggressive texturing — just a traditional opener that fits the character of the knife perfectly. The handle pairs Crater Blue anodized 6061-T6 aluminum scales with an Ash Gray aluminum bolster — a two-tone color combination that gives the Successor a distinctly modern aesthetic while nodding to the classic gentleman's pen knife tradition. At 0.432" thick, this handle is genuinely slim, and the 3.7" closed length means it disappears into a front pocket without bulk or fuss. The slipjoint mechanism features a solid detent with a tactile, satisfying half-stop — the traditional "walk and talk" that generations of pocket knife users have carried as a feature, not a bug. The included black leather sheath with removable pocket clip gives you four distinct carry options: clip on the sheath, clip on the knife, or either configuration without the clip. It's a carry system that adapts to how you live. Proudly made in the USA and backed by Benchmade's LifeSharp service. SPECIFICATIONS Mode…
