The Benchmade 940 Osborne stands as one of the most iconic EDC designs ever created. Designed by Warren Osborne over two decades ago, this revolutionary folder features a distinctive reverse tanto blade that provides exceptional piercing capability and edge retention. The original 940 combines green anodized aluminum handles with CPM-S30V steel, while premium variants like the 940-1 upgrade to carbon fiber and S90V steel for enhanced performance.
Available in both full-size and Mini configurations, the Osborne series features Benchmade's AXIS Lock for smooth, ambidextrous operation. The 945 Mini maintains the same beloved reverse tanto blade geometry in a scaled-down package perfect for compact carry. Choose from multiple handle materials including aluminum, G10, and carbon fiber across various models. Each American-made Osborne is backed by Benchmade's lifetime warranty and LifeSharp service.
