Pin It

The 3550 features a 2.9" 154CM stainless steel spear point blade and is available in plain or combo edge. The handle is 6061-T6 aluminum and is nicely contoured so that it seems even thinner than it’s actual .375 thickness making it the perfect knife for unobtrusive undercover use. It’s light weight and black stainless steel pocket clip also allow it to be clipped nearly anywhere you need it for maximum access as a back up.

 

Benchmade has discontinued the 3550 series and replaced it with the 3551 series, which features a number of improvements including a stronger lock, multiposition pocket clip and skeletonized design:
