The Rukus

The Benchmade 610 Rukus is a discontinued folding knife known for its large size and robust construction.

Key features:
Size: It's a large knife, described as a "mega folder". The blade length is 4.25 inches, and the closed length is 5.95 inches.

Blade Steel: Typically uses S30V stainless steel, which is known for its excellent corrosion resistance and edge qualities.

Handle: Features a handle made from a combination of Micarta and G10, providing a comfortable grip.

Locking Mechanism: Utilizes Benchmade's AXIS® lock, which is ambidextrous and known for its strength.

Ergonomics: The handle design, including finger grooves and
jimping, is well-liked by many for providing a secure grip, especially for those with larger hands. However, some have found the handle to be less ergonomic compared to other Benchmade models due to its relatively straight shape.
