Same proven design. Just easier to carry.

With a 2.91” CPM-S30V sheepsfoot blade and a lightweight Grivory handle, it’s built for everyday use without taking up extra space.

It’s simple, reliable, and easy to carry anywhere.

A Proven Design, Scaled Down

The Mini Griptilian keeps what works.

• Same dependable platform as the full-size version

• More compact overall footprint

• Easier to carry in smaller pockets

It’s a natural fit if you like the Griptilian but want something lighter and smaller.

Sheepsfoot Blade

The sheepsfoot blade focuses on control and everyday usability.

• Straight edge for clean, precise cuts

• Blunt tip for safer use

• Ideal for daily tasks

It’s one of the most practical blade shapes for EDC.

CPM-S30V Steel

The blade is made from CPM-S30V, offering:

• Strong edge retention

• Good corrosion resistance

• Proven, reliable performance

It’s a steel that continues to hold up over time.

Grivory Handle

The black Grivory handle keeps the knife lightweight and durable.

• Impact resistant and tough

• Lightweight for all-day carry

• Textured for a secure grip

It’s built for real use, not just looks.

AXIS Lock System

Benchmade’s AXIS Lock delivers:

• Fully ambidextrous operation

• Smooth one-handed opening and closing

• Reliable, secure lockup

It’s one of the easiest locking systems to use day to day.

Built for Everyday Carry

The Mini Griptilian is designed to go anywhere.

• Compact and lightweight

• Easy to carry without bulk

• Versatile for a wide range of tasks

It’s the kind of knife you don’t have to think about, just carry and use.

Made in the USA

Benchmade manufactures the Mini Griptilian in Oregon City, Oregon, maintaining tight control over materials, heat treatment, and assembly.

Why This One Stands Out

The Mini Griptilian takes one of the most trusted knife designs out there and makes it even more accessible for everyday carry.

If you want a compact, USA-made knife with a proven track record, this one delivers.
