Product description
Rare and Discontinued Doug Ritter Mini Griptilian Folding Knife
The Doug Ritter Mini Griptilian is a compact yet capable folding knife, designed with Benchmade's renowned craftsmanship. Featuring a premium S30V steel blade and the reliable AXIS lock mechanism, it’s perfect for EDC or collection.
Condition: This knife is in decent pre-owned condition. The S30V blade still holds an edge but shows signs of sharpening from previous use. The scales, in a boldly awkward and vibrant bright yellow, add a unique touch that’s hard to miss. When I first acquired the knife, it was in rough shape, thoroughly deep cleaned the AXIS lock mechanism, and applied gun oil. After reassembly, it now fires like a champ, with smooth and snappy action, zero blade play, and excellent lockup.
This is a high-quality blade showcasing the impeccable craftsmanship Benchmade is known for. With its fidget-friendly design and reliable performance, it’s a joy to use. For those seeking a custom touch, replacing the scales would transform this knife into an invaluable, rare, perfectly crafted mini fidget flipper. Please refer to the photos for a detailed view of the actual knife being sold.
Restored and cleaned, this knife is ready for its next chapter.
