Benchmade's Triage
Utility Knife is a
triple-combo utility tool that features a knife, safety cutter, and glass breaker
in one great package.
The blade on the knife has no point
on the tip and very little belly, used primarily in applications where slicing
is the main requirement, and a point is not needed or would get in the way. The
lack of point helps prevent the rescuer from inadvertently injuring a victim
who is being cut free from something restrictive. The blade is comprised of
durable N680 steel, which has excellent corrosion resistance.
The safety cutter is crafted out of a
440C, is easy to resharpen, and features the AXIS design. The ambidextrous
design is a welcome feature, and the Carbide glass breaker will get the job
done in no time.
