Detailed product description
Benchmade Dacian 203-04 – a bushcraft gentleman with a denim touch
The Benchmade Dacian 203-04 is a knife that brings together classic and modern elements, not only in functionality but also in design. It combines premium CPM MagnaCut steel, a precisely shaped blade, and an exceptionally comfortable blue denim Micarta handle – the result is practical, reliable, and aesthetically unique.

The matte finish gives the blade a subtle, non-reflective look – ideal for discreet work or field use.
The ergonomic denim Micarta handle fits the hand perfectly, provides a secure grip in all conditions, and feels modern without being flashy. The package also includes a premium leather sheath with a Boltaron insert, allowing for safe and comfortable scout carry.
