The toughest just got more pocketable. The Benchmade 273GY-1 Mini Adamas is the compact, EDC-friendly evolution of the legendary Adamas platform — a tank-like tactical folder that upholds every bit of the rugged reliability tradition set by its full-sized predecessors, now in a trimmed build that's nimble enough for daily carry without compromising a single element of what makes the Adamas the most trusted hard-use folder in the Benchmade lineup.

Designed by Shane Sibert, the Mini Adamas was built from the ground up for operators, law enforcement professionals, and serious EDC users who need a knife they can trust their lives with. The 3.25" drop-point blade is crafted from CPM-CruWear — one of the toughest, hardest, most wear-resistant blade steels available today, heat treated to an exceptional 63-65 HRC. CruWear is a high-alloy tool steel with a unique composition that delivers a perfect combination of extreme edge retention, outstanding toughness, and wear resistance that far surpasses traditional stainless steels. The Tungsten Gray finish keeps the blade non-reflective and purpose-driven. Heavy spine jimping and a thumb ramp give your thumb a secure, fatigue-free purchase for maximum blade control under stress.

The textured black G10 handle scales are built for grip — aggressive texturing that stays confident in wet, cold, and high-stress conditions, providing a secure purchase that holds through whatever the task demands. A full-length steel liner and thick handle construction give the Mini Adamas its characteristic tank-like feel without the bulk of the full-size. MOLLE compatibility and a lanyard hole make this knife as adaptable to tactical kit as it is to a daily carry pocket. The AXIS Lock mechanism provides smooth, ambidextrous one-handed operation and rock-solid lockup. A reversible deep-carry tip-up pocket clip completes the package. Proudly made in the USA and backed by Benchmade's LifeSharp lifetime sharpening service.
