Benchmade Adira 18060BT-01 Folding Knife, CPM-MagnaCut Drop Point, Tempest

The Benchmade Adira 18060BT-01 is a purpose-built folding knife designed for demanding use in wet environments. The 3.88″ drop-point blade is made from CPM-MagnaCut stainless steel, a high-performance alloy known for its balance of edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness — well-suited for tasks like bait prep, line cutting, and general waterside work. This variant features a Cerakote Blue Titanium finish over the blade and a Tempest Gray Grivory handle, offering both corrosion protection and a secure grip in wet conditions.

The Adira uses Benchmade’s AXIS locking mechanism, which provides a reliable, ambidextrous lock-up and allows for smooth one-handed opening and closing. The plain edge blade and included pocket clip make it practical for everyday carry, whether you’re on the water, in the field, or running a camp kitchen. At 4.23 ounces, it carries enough substance for heavy cutting tasks without adding unnecessary bulk.

Benchmade backs the Adira with their LifeSharp service, which covers free re-sharpening to factory edge for the life of the knife, along with cleaning, oiling, and adjustments. For buyers who depend on a working edge in the field, that kind of long-term serviceability adds real practical value.
