From Benchmade:
Benchmade is proud to announce the new Limited Edition Artist Series. The first installment of this exciting series is a collaboration with artist Casey Underwood, featuring his artwork on four styles of the 15085 Mini Crooked River. Balancing artistry and function, these knives highlight four different iconic fish species and the environments in which they thrive. Double-sided blade laser markings displaying a brown trout, largemouth bass, steelhead and tarpon, along with laser markings along the bolster (first time a Benchmade knife has featured markings on the bolsters). Casey’s artwork, coupled with the timeless aesthetic of the Mini Crooked River’s design creates a truly show stopping piece. BUT this is a limited run with only 300 of each style being produced.
$350; Only 300 units of each style will be produced.

A portion of proceeds from each apparel piece sold will be donated to the Backcountry Hunters & Anglers organization, as we aim to raise awareness for the protection of the waters and wilds inhabited by Oregon’s salmon and elk populations.
