The **Benchmade Aileron 737** is a cool pocket knife, designed by Steve Tarani. He was asked to design a knife for pilots. A knife that can be opened with one hand, but also easily with two. More importantly, the question was if the knife could also be opened while wearing gloves. After all, with many knives you simply don't have enough grip over the blade while wearing gloves. A thumb hole is often added which can be used with bare hands. Benchmade and Tarani came up with a great solution: a laser texture.



This texture has been added to the blade with a laser. The result is a piece with a lot of grip, just before the thumb hole. As if it is enhanced with sandpaper. As such you can always easily open the knife regardless of the circumstances.



The handle on the Benchmade Aileron is made from G10. Again to make sure you have enough grip while wearing gloves. Tarani made sure that the end of the handle is a little slimmer because your pink and ring finger are shorter. Towards the front of the handle it becomes wider and wider to make room for your index and middle finger.



CPM S30V was chosen for the blade. It retains its sharpness well and is nice and stainless. When opened the Benchmade Axis lock will neatly keep the blade in place.

General information

We always measure the blade height at the highest part of the blade.

Blade height

We always measure the blade length ourselves. This is the length of the blade from the tip to the front of the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade length

value_blade_length_edge

The length of the cutting edge is measured from the tip to the start of the edge. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Cutting edge length

We always measure the blade thickness at the thickest part of the blade. Often just before the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade thickness

value_closed_length

We always weigh a product as bare as possible. Knives and axes always without their sheath, lights (if possible) without their battery. For knife sets we measure the entire weight. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specifications.

Weight

Dimensions & weight

value_steel_hardness

The hardness in Rockwell C for a knife is always according to the manufacturer's specifications. When a manufacturer specifies a value of 56-58HRC, for instance, we always note the highest value, i.e. 58HRC.

We measure the sharpening angle ourselves. This value is the angle per side.  So 20º means that the total angle of the edge is 40º. Please note that knives are almost always sharpened by hand, even in factories. This value is therefore only an indication of a single tool measured by us. You are always free to choose your own sharpening angle. [Learn more about sharpening angles](/en/ct/sharpening-angles-explained.htm).

Sharpening angle

In terms of grind we are talking about how the complete blade thickness extends into the edge. Want to learn more about grinds? [Read all about grinds on knives](/en/ct/knife-grinds.htm).
