Product Description
Originally developed for an elite military dive program, the Benchmade H2O Fixed Dive Knife is purpose-built for professional divers, water rescue teams, military personnel, and marine enthusiasts who require uncompromising performance in harsh aquatic environments.
The N680 Austrian stainless steel blade is specifically chosen for its exceptional corrosion resistance, making it an outstanding choice for prolonged exposure to fresh or salt water. Heat treated to 57–59 HRC, the blade provides an excellent balance of toughness, edge retention, and ease of maintenance. The sheepsfoot blade profile offers outstanding control while minimizing the risk of accidental punctures, making it ideal for cutting rope, webbing, fishing line, nets, and other materials encountered underwater.
The ergonomic rubberized overmold handle delivers a secure, non-slip grip even when submerged or while wearing gloves. A durable injection-molded plastic sheath provides positive retention and multiple carry options, ensuring the knife is always secure yet instantly accessible.
Designed and manufactured in the USA using premium Austrian blade steel, the H2O Fixed Dive Knife is built to perform when failure isn’t an option.

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.'
