Benchmade SlipRidge Fixed 15650
The Benchmade SlipRidge Fixed 15650 is designed as the core cutting tool for a serious big-game hunting setup. Its lightweight fixed-blade construction combines a premium MagnaCut® stainless steel blade with a stabilized wood handle engineered for control during demanding field work.
Benchmade designed the SlipRidge Fixed specifically as a hunting workhorse for big game processing and field dressing. The 3.7-inch drop-point blade provides enough length for processing larger game while remaining agile enough for more precise cutting tasks.
3.7-Inch MagnaCut Drop-Point Blade
The SlipRidge Fixed features a 3.7-inch MagnaCut® stainless steel blade hardened to 60-62 HRC.
Its drop-point profile combines a high tip with a large belly, providing a versatile cutting shape for field dressing and processing game. Benchmade enhances the MagnaCut blade with its SelectEdge® ultra-fine sharpening process for precise cutting performance.
The blade receives a satin finish and measures 0.114 inches thick.
Stabilized Wood Handle
The 15650 features a dark brown stabilized wood handle designed to provide maximum control while helping prevent the knife from rolling in the hand.
A deep finger choil provides additional security, while contoured pinch points allow the user to choke up on the knife for more precise cutting work.
The traditional appearance of the stabilized wood also gives the SlipRidge Fixed a classic hunting-knife look while retaining a modern high-performance blade.
Built for Big Game Processing
Benchmade specifically designed the SlipRidge Fixed for hunting, field dressing, and big game processing.
The knife measures 8.11 inches overall while weighing only 3.613 ounces. That combination provides hunters with a capable fixed blade without adding unnecessary weight to a hunting pack or kill kit.
Modular Boltaron Sheath
The Benchmade 15650 includes an OD Green Boltaron® sheath.
The modular sheath provides multiple carry options and is MOLLE compatible. Benchmade also designed the SlipRidge system to accept an optional gut hook attachment, allowing hunters to configure their field setup around their needs.
Part of the Benchmade SlipRidge Collection
The 15650 SlipRidge Fixed is designed to integrate with the other tools in Benchmade’s SlipRidge Collection, including the 15090 SlipRidge folding knife and SlipRidge Hook.
This gives hunters the ability to build a coordinated processing kit using dedicated tools from the same product family.
