The Morpho 51 is Benchmade's flagship G-10 bali-song butterfly knife. It was originally marketed as an EDC butterfly when it was released in 2009 and it quickly set the standard for lightweight butterfly knives. The 51 is a full size knife with an overall length of 9.4" but Benchmade kept the weight at 3.3 oz. with titanium liners and G-10 scales. The slim handle is perfectly balanced and the G-10 texture provides excellent grip security without being too abrasive. It's outfitted with a crowned spear point blade made from D2 steel. This tough steel will hold on edge for a long time and is perfect for a daily use bali. A low profile titanium pocket clip finishes off the design and solidifies the Morpho 51 as the essential EDC balisong. In addition to the standard black/blue G-10 model, the 51 is occasionally available in Blade HQ exclusive variations like orange , blue, and green (pictured below). Or if you'd like something a little more customized you can find a host of handle and blade variants from the fine folks at Flytanium . Benchmade has been making the best butterfly knives in the game for over 30 years. Pick up a Morpho 51 today and see what all the hype is about!

Benchmade Warranty ╋

From Benchmade as of July 2020:

"Each new Benchmade knife is packaged with written documentation of the Benchmade Lifetime Warranty. Benchmade Knife Company, Inc. warrants to the original owner that Benchmade knives purchased from authorized dealers will be free from defects in materials and workmanship. Benchmade will, without charge, repair or replace at our (Benchmade's) option, any knife purchased from an authorized dealer and returned for warranty work by its original owner that is found to be defective by Benchmade."

LifeSharp Service:

There's never a dull moment with a Benchmade... That's right! We will gladly re-sharpen your Benchmade knife to a factory razor sharp edge (service does not apply to any serrated portion of the blade). If you prefer us to sharpen your blade, or if you may have neglected to maintain your edge for a while, simply ship your knife to us. We'll not only sharpen it, but we will also inspect the knife for any warranted repairs and "tune" the knife for optimum performance.

We understand that our customers may want to modify their Benchmade knife to meet their own expectations. A modified knife will void the Lifetime Warranty, but we will still offer a limited version of our LifeSharp service to these modified knives. Specifically, we will not inspect, clean, repair or replace any parts for a modified knife as we do with our standard LifeSharp Service. We will only sharpen the blade (excluding aftermarket blades) and return the knife to the owner.
