Product Description
The Benchmade Claymore 9070BK is a lightweight, hard-use automatic knife built for professionals, first responders, and everyday carry enthusiasts who demand fast deployment and dependable performance. Developed in response to overwhelming demand for a plain-edge version of the original Claymore, this model retains the same rugged construction and powerful automatic action that made the series an instant favorite.
Its 3.6-inch drop point blade is crafted from CPM-D2 tool steel and finished with a durable Cobalt Black Cerakote® coating, providing excellent wear resistance, edge retention, and corrosion protection. The versatile plain edge excels at slicing, utility work, and precision cutting, while the push-button automatic mechanism delivers instant one-handed deployment. An integrated safety lock prevents accidental activation during carry.
The textured black Grivory® handle keeps weight to a minimum while providing a secure grip in wet or dry conditions. Stainless steel liners add strength, and the reversible deep-carry pocket clip allows discreet tip-up carry for left- or right-handed users. Whether you’re on the job, in the field, or carrying it every day, the Claymore 9070BK is engineered to perform when it matters most.
Note: Automatic knives are subject to federal, state, and local laws. It is the buyer’s responsibility to ensure compliance with all applicable laws before purchasing.

About brand
Benchmade Knife Company, Inc. set-up shop in Clackamas, Oregon in 1990 (originally founded in California in 1988). The initial knives primarily consisted of the Bali-Song knives, using a combination of outside vendors and inside processing to build finished products. And like most companies, starting out meant scarce money and big plans, using second hand equipment and limited resources.
Soon, a natural born fortitude and an undying passion to make it right and make it Benchmade, prospered into significant growth. As the product line grew so did the in-house capabilities. We began to acquire new machines and technologies including the first of several lasers, making Benchmade the first knife manufacturer to have such equipment in-house. Open minds and positive attitudes would lead to several more industry firsts over the course of the next several years.
This was only the beginning of Benchmade's breaking of new ground in the manufactured knife markets by using non-traditional materials and modern manufacturing methods in not only building knives better but, inevitably building better knives. The Designer Series was first introduced in 1991 with several custom designs being manufactured. By tapping into the custom knife makers' knowledge and combining it with our manufacturing expertise we were more readily able to offer more contemporary knife designs and innovations to the knife users.
Consecutive years of aggressive growth led to the next logical step in 1996 when Benchmade moved into its own 35,000 sq. ft. facility. A contemporary styled building complete with all of the modern equipment and amenities necessary to manufacture what has become recognized as a higher standard of specialty cutlery.
Today, Benchmade Knife Company, Inc. manufactures knives for a loyal and ever growing following of knife users. As we move into the 21st century we are poised for even more exciting opportunities, innovations and ongoing total world-class quality. Here at Benchmade we employ a simple philosophy- 'Make it cool, make it solid, make it happen and definitely make it Benchmade.'
