Directly derived from military specifications, this folding knife is designed to replace a fixed blade in the most demanding operational situations. To ensure maximum reliability, extremely robust materials, increased thicknesses, and a solid and secure back lock opening/closing system have been used.

A manual safety lock ensures maximum protection during use, drastically reducing the risk of accidental closure. When inserted in the closed position, it also prevents the knife from being immediately used against the operator in the event of theft.

Materials and workmanship
All components are machined from solid blocks using high-precision CNC machines, while assembly, adjustment, and sharpening are carried out by hand. The blade is made of N690 cobalt stainless steel, known for its high mechanical strength, great cutting ability, edge retention, and excellent corrosion resistance. It has a flat grind and a hardness of 58 HRC.

The scales are made of Anticorodal, an aluminum alloy that is highly resistant to stress and oxidation. The tang, made of hardened N690, acts as an effective emergency glass breaker. Screws, pins, and clips are made of burnished stainless steel, while the blade, lever, and tang are protected by Testudo treatment, which is highly resistant to abrasion and oxidation. The scales are black anodized.

Designed by master knife makers Bill McHenry and Jason Williams, the original 710 model marked a turning point by introducing the innovative AXIS® Lock system, which redefined industry standards. Twenty-five years later, Benchmade celebrated its legacy by introducing the new 710-25 SEVEN TEN, the first platform to integrate the evolution of the AXIS® Lock, optimized to ensure even longer opening/closing cycles and greater structural reliability.

The knife's architecture echoes the distinctive features of its predecessor, with a curved blade made of M390 steel, known for its high balance between edge retention and corrosion resistance. The black anodized 6061-T6 aluminum scales, with spacers and FDE inserts, provide strength and a technical, modern look. This full-size folder represents the meeting of the tradition of an icon and Benchmade's latest engineering developments, designed for collectors and users who demand benchmark performance.
