Product Description
The Benchmade Model 7 Hook BM7BLKW is a compact, professional-grade rescue hook designed for quickly cutting through a variety of fibrous and flexible materials. Its specialized hook profile makes it particularly well suited for cutting webbing, straps, rope, paracord, leather, and similar materials.
The 0.50-inch hook blade is made from 440C stainless steel with a black oxide coating and is hardened to 58–61 HRC. The rescue-hook/strap-cutter design provides a controlled cutting edge while keeping the tool compact and easy to handle.
The large handle features a black vinyl coating that provides a secure grip and allows for multiple grip options depending on the application. At only 1.60 ounces and 4.30 inches overall, the Model 7 is easy to incorporate into a professional or emergency gear setup.
A black MOLLE-compatible soft sheath is included, providing convenient carry and multiple attachment options.

Knife-Depot Take
The Benchmade Model 7 Hook is a purpose-built tool rather than a conventional knife. Its compact rescue-hook design provides a controlled way to cut through webbing, straps, rope, and other fibrous materials, while the lightweight construction makes it easy to keep with emergency or professional gear. The MOLLE-compatible sheath and multiple grip options add practical versatility to an already compact design.

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.'
