Benchmade Claymore
The Claymore is Benchmade's tough, affordable automatic. The 9070 and Mini 9570 are push-button side-opening autos, and the 3370 and 3375 are double-action out-the-front (OTF) dagger versions.
All use CPM D2 steel and Grivory handles. Automatic knife laws vary, so check yours before buying.
