Benchmade Prototype Shootout D/A 3.5" OTF Automatic / Black CF-Elite / Flat Earth PVD CPM Cru-Wear

This is a Prototype from September 2021

The Shootout is a Benchmade OTF automatic knife with some seriously great attributes. It features a lightweight CF-Elite handle with a reversible pocket clip, and a CRU-WAER super steel blade with a PVD finish.

While it's not an issue for all, for others, symmetry is a must. We're happy to report that the Benchmade Shootout has a centered blade, not offset like many OTF knives.

Features:

• Tanto style blade made from CPM CRU-WEAR carbon steel with a flat earth colored PVD finish.
• Thumb slide opener for snappy opening and closing action.
• CF-Elite handle with a carbide glass breaker.
• Reversible deep-carry pocket clip.
