Product Description
The Benchmade Infidel 3300BK is one of the most iconic out-the-front (OTF) automatic knives ever produced. Designed by Bill McHenry, the Infidel combines Benchmade’s precision engineering with a rugged double-action automatic mechanism for lightning-fast deployment and retraction. Built for military, law enforcement, first responders, and discerning collectors, it has become a benchmark for premium OTF knives.
Its 3.91-inch double-edge dagger blade is crafted from D2 tool steel and finished with a durable black coating for exceptional wear resistance and tactical styling. The precision-machined 6061-T6 black anodized aluminum handle is lightweight yet incredibly strong, providing a secure grip while housing the smooth, dependable OTF mechanism.
The ambidextrous thumb slide allows for rapid one-handed operation, while the integrated cleaning port helps maintain reliable performance in demanding environments. A removable deep-carry pocket clip and MOLLE-compatible sheath complete this premium American-made automatic knife.
Note: Automatic knives are subject to federal, state, and local laws. It is the buyer’s responsibility to ensure compliance with all applicable regulations 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.'
