Built sturdy with full liners and outfitted with a textured carbon fiber bolster and black G10 handle housing a strong, corrosion resistant CPM-MagnaCut blade with a black Cerakote finish, the palm-filling, all-black P.S.K.™ includes rapid and reliable AXIS Assist actuation with integrated spine safety and a dedicated striking choil at the base of the blade for fire starting with a ferro rod. If you like to carry an auto outdoors but are restricted by your region, the 593BK-01 P.S.K.™ is the perfect alternative for efficient and ambidextrous one-hand deployment.
Features:
- Designed with purpose and built to last, the PSK sets a high bar for durability and performance matched only by our promise that it will be yours, for life.
- Laser-cut from sheets of high-grade steel, every Benchmade blade is ground, beveled, and finished with uncompromising precision. We mill and machine handles in-house to the most exacting specifications, and every knife is hand-assembled and sharpened by highly trained technicians bringing to bear over thirty years of manufacturing excellence in our state-of-the-art factory in Oregon City, Oregon.
- Drop-Point Blade: Drops of the spine to the tip. Tip height is typically below the center line on the blade
- CpM-MagnaCut Stainless Steel (60-62 HRC): A new approach to stainless tool steel that eliminates chromium carbides from the microstructure. The result: a combination of properties with similar toughness and edge retention to non-stainless steels like CPM-CruWear and CPM-4V, with the addition of excellent corrosion resistance and strength.
- G10 Handle: Multiple layers of resin-laminated fiberglass make G10 incredibly durable, rigid, and resistant to the elements.
- Assisted Opening Action: “Assists” have a spring that encourages the blade into the open position once the user pushes the blade manually beyond a certain point.

Use & Care
Proper care and regular maintenance help make your Benchmade knife yours, for life. Here are some tips for keeping your Benchmade in peak condition:
• All steel, regardless of price and grade, can eventually rust, so it’s important to keep your knife dry and lubricated. If spotting or rust occurs, semi-chrome metal polish will often take care of it.
• Dishwashers can cause serious damage that is not covered under our warranty, so make sure to hand-wash your Benchmade under warm water with dish soap only, and dry thoroughly.
• Remember, knives are cutting tools, and you should never use your knife as a pry-bar, screwdriver, chisel, or punch, unless the knife is designed explicitly for those purposes.
• If you choose to sharpen your blade yourself, avoid grinding wheels and other high-powered machinery.
• Handle, pivot, and pocket clip screws may require occasional adjustment using T6 & T10 Torx drivers. We recommend applying a small dab of releasable thread-locker as needed.
