The Benchmade 515 Rant, designed by Mel Pardue, is a durable and versatile fixed-blade knife built for practical use. It features a 4.5-inch drop point blade made from D2 (older model, switched to 440C). The black Santoprene handle provides a secure and comfortable grip, even in wet conditions. Measuring 9.11 inches overall and weighing 7.16 ounces, the knife is well-balanced for extended use. It comes with a black leather sheath with a belt loop for easy carry. Though discontinued, the Benchmade 515 Rant remains popular among collectors and outdoor enthusiasts for its quality craftsmanship and practical design.
