Overview
Like an outstretched talon, the 213BK-2601 Kitsari™ strikes an aggressive posture with a concave edge more often seen in tactical knives and karambits, drawing material into the apex for efficient slicing. The blade is composed of a super steel known as Z-12Ultra PM™, a powdered tool steel with exceptional edge retention and toughness at high hardness.
Clad in durable black G10 handle scales, milled with a radial pattern and accented by Flat Dark Earth PVD-coated hardware, the Kitsari™ is a thin, lightweight EDC with formidable presence. Adapting tactical design into daily utility, Benchmade’s first hawkbill knife blurs the line between precision cutting tool and force of nature.
