Detailed product description
Benchmade Tactical Triage 917SBK Folding Knife
From the very first encounter with the Benchmade Tactical Triage 917SBK, it is clear that this is no ordinary folding knife. This model was designed specifically for rescue and security professionals—firefighters, paramedics, police officers, and soldiers—who need a reliable tool in crisis situations. The Triage 917SBK combines the features of a modern folding knife with integrated rescue functions, making it a multifunctional and practical tool ready for rapid response.
The knife features an ergonomic G10 handle that is durable, lightweight, and provides a secure grip even when wearing gloves or in wet conditions. The blade made from premium CPM-S30V steel offers long edge life and corrosion resistance, while the black Cerakote finish gives the knife a tactical look and even greater wear resistance. The integrated seatbelt cutter and carbide glass breaker add practical functions that can prove decisive in rescue operations, car accidents, or other emergency situations.
Thanks to the ambidextrous AXIS® Lock, the knife is safe and allows quick deployment for both right- and left-handed users. The low-profile tip-up pocket clip ensures discreet and comfortable carry, whether on a belt or gear. The Benchmade Tactical Triage 917SBK is therefore an ideal combination of robustness, multifunctionality, and compact design, suitable not only for professionals but also for outdoor enthusiasts who appreciate quick readiness and versatile use in demanding environments.
