Benchmade's 8 Rescue Hook provides unparalleled rapid response cut ability with a design that allows for much safer deployment.

The Benchmade 8 Rescue Hook combines a modern elongated, versatile design with durable edge quality. The stainless steel hook features a long strap cutter with a black powder coat finish.

The initial cut force required by this hook is less than a quarter of that of the competition. It may not seem like much, unless it’s your arm that’s broken. The overall edge retention highlights that even after 500+ cuts, the 8 Rescue Hook is still cutting noticeably easier than the competition.

The rescue hook features a larger handle area for greater reach, leverage, and grip, even when wearing heavy gloves. The hook comes with a black MOLLE® compatible soft sheath.

Benchmade's emergency hook cutters are made to save lives. They are proven in the lab, on the highway, and on the field of battle. Don’t trust your life to anything less than a Benchmade.
