A remarkably well-preserved example of the early Benchmade/Ernest Emerson CQC7 collaboration, complete with its original blue Benchmade box and original factory paperwork.
This USA-made CQC7 features an ATS-34 partially serrated tanto blade, black G-10 handle scales and the distinctive early Benchmade and Emerson markings. Both the blade finish and pocket clip remain exceptionally clean with no visible finish wear.
