Benchmade Knife Company, Inc. set-up shop in Clackamas, Oregon in 1990 (originally founded in California in 1988). With a natural born fortitude and an undying passion to "make it right" and "make it Benchmade", Benchmade prospered into a significant knife manufacturer. Open minds and positive attitudes led to several industry firsts over the course of the next several years.

This was only the beginning of Benchmade's breaking of new ground in the manufactured pocket knives markets by using non-traditional materials and modern manufacturing methods in not only building knives better but, inevitably building better pocket knives. The Designer Series was first introduced in 1991 with several custom designs being manufactured. By tapping into the custom knife maker's knowledge and combining it with their manufacturing expertise they were more readily able to offer more contemporary pocket knife designs and innovations to the knife users.

Today, Benchmade Knife Company, Inc. manufactures pocket knives for a loyal and ever growing following of knife users. As they move into the 21st century they are poised for even more exciting opportunities, innovations and ongoing total world-class quality. At Benchmade they employ a simple philosophy- "Make it cool, make it solid, make it happen and definitely make it Benchmade."
