Anodizing Notes:
Green is the hardest color to anodize, this color can vary on single parts to full sets from a Blue Green to a Yellow Green color.
I
have almost perfected it and I will try my best to keep the color as
consistent as possible within any set purchased as many things affect
it.
Like ambient temperature, age of chemical mix, length of time anodizing, voltage, pre-cleaning procedure, voltage contact etc.
(I am often re-doing it a few times to get it right, or wasting parts
or throwing away parts in the process, it can easily take around 2 hours
per set to get right)
Green
is also very hard to capture on a photograph as it's true color may
look different under different lighting conditions or on different
angles.
or
even on different screens when being viewed. The green anodizing color is around the Pantone 339 Green color.
Please
take this a general color range only. As in real life it looks brighter
due to titanium's metallic surface reflecting through the color
This color is also NOT guaranteed to match any stock Benchmade aluminum scales or standoffs.
Additional Titanium 940-1 parts: If wanting the Full Parts Set (screw set / standoffs / pivot set / axis lock bar / thumb stud set) it is best
to order
ALL the 940-1 parts at the same
time. So it will be in the same anodizing batch and match much better than if ordered at a later date.
* By placing an order for this GREEN part you are accepting there could be a variation in color to what is pictured.
INSTALLATION WARNING:
THE BENCHMADE AXIS LOCKING SYSTEM IS QUITE FIDDLY TO TAKE APART AND RE-INSTALL.

THESE SPRINGS AS THEY ARE VITAL FOR A FUNCTIONING AXIS
LOCK.
THERE WILL ALSO BE A SLIGHT COMPROMISE IN BLADE OPENING SMOOTHNESS FROM THE
TITANIUM PART RUBBING ON THE BLADE TANG AREA. POSSIBLY LUBE OR POLISHING THE
TANG CAN HELP. THE AXIS LOCK BAR COMES ALREADY POLISHED TO A SMOOTH SURFACE.
BY PURCHASING THIS ITEM YOU ARE AWARE OF THE ABOVE MENTIONED AND THAT DAMAGE
OR THE
POTENTIAL FOR MISSING PARTS COULD OCCUR AS A RESULT OF TAKING OUT THE
ORIGINAL AXIS LOCK BAR. YOU ALONE WILL BE TAKING FULL RESPONSIBLY FOR ANY SUCH
DAMAGE OR LOSS. (THE BENCHMADE WARRANTY MIGHT NOT COVER THESE TYPES OF
MODS)
IF YOU ARE NOT CONFIDENT IN TAKING APART AND PUTTING YOUR KNIFE BACK TOGETHER
(OR IF ANYTHING ELSE GOES WRONG), IT IS BEST NOT TO BUY THIS ITEM.
Once you have received a colored titanium product. It may appear to have lost color once touched,
this is only just the oil from your hands. If the oil has been cleaned off the color will come back.
