The **Benchmade Leuku 202** is a robust Leuku-style bushcraft knife. The Leuko is traditionally from Scandinavia where it is an all-round outdoor knife. It is used for bushcraft tasks, but also for hunting or for odd jobs around the house. This Benchmade Leuku is a very modern interpretation of this classic.

 This Benchmade Leuku is a slightly larger version of the famous Benchmade Puukko.

 Benchmade has gone to great lengths to turn this Leuku into a very robust knife. The wooden handle was replaced by the Santoprene. This is a rubber-like plastic that can take a few blows. Moreover, it is very comfortable in hand. It offers you enough grip even in wet circumstances. The subtle texture of the handle contributes to this.

 The blade is made from CPM 3V. And with good reason. That is one of the toughest and most robust type of steels at the moment. This steel can easily handle heavy-duty use. In addition, it retains its sharpness well and is relatively easy to sharpen. It is also important to know that CPM 3V is not 100% stainless. Salt, acids and moisture can leave you with some discolourations or even corrosion. But with normal use and maintenance this should not be a problem.

 Where traditional Leuku's often have a full scandi edge, Benchmade has provided its Leuku with a grind that looks like it. You will find a secondary edge at the end.

 You can safely carry the Benchmade 202 Leuku in the included leather sheath. This is equipped with a fairly wide belt loop, with a second belt loop that also serves as a "dangler" This makes it easier for you to squat or sit down when you carry the knife on your belt. The sheath is enhanced with a loop to make sure you can add a firesteel.

Excellent couteau ! Esthétisme minimaliste au service du pratique. On pas peur de l'utiliser et de l'abîmer ! Très bon achat.

Schönes Messer, top Stahl, gute Verarbeitung!
Wie sich der relativ „gefühlt“ weiche Griff im Einsatz verhält, wird die Zeit zeigen.

Am Übergang von Griff zur Klinge ist das Santoprene Material nicht ganz fest anliegend, so dass dort Feuchtigkeit evtl eindringen kann. Der Thermorun von Fällkniven sitzt dort vollflächig verklebt an der Klinge.

Nichts desto trotz ein formschönes Messer, das super in der Hand liegt. Scheide ist in Ordnung.

Bel coltello nel complesso, ma affilato male. Fa fatica a tagliare la carta!

Everything about this knife is fantastic, but the handel feels a bit thin, when gripping the knife extra tight. During normal use it feels pretty nice

Very light and nimble knife. Good price for this steel. Throws good sparks

General information

We always measure the blade height at the highest part of the blade.

Blade height

We always measure the blade length ourselves. This is the length of the blade from the tip to the front of the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade length

We always measure the blade thickness at the thickest part of the blade. Often just before the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade thickness

value_handle_length

We always weigh a product as bare as possible. Knives and axes always without their sheath, lights (if possible) without their battery. For knife sets we measure the entire weight. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specifications.

We like to highlight what use the manufacturer had in mind, or what we believe the knife is suited for

Best use

This concerns the type of edge [Want to learn more about a serrated versus a plain edge](/en/ct/pocket-knives-difference-plain-edge-serrated.htm)?

Type of edge

molle_compatible

MOLLE is a mounting system that allows you to attach sheaths and other accessories to backpacks. With this specification we indicate whether a product is already MOLLE-compatible by default. [Want to learn more MOLLE](/en/ct/what-is-molle.htm)?

MOLLE-compatible

We measure the sharpening angle ourselves. This value is the angle per side.  So 20º means that the total angle of the edge is 40º. Please note that knives are almost always sharpened by hand, even in factories. This value is therefore only an indication of a single tool measured by us. You are always free to choose your own sharpening angle. [Learn more about sharpening angles](/en/ct/sharpening-angles-explained.htm).

Sharpening angle

In terms of grind we are talking about how the complete blade thickness extends into the edge. Want to learn more about grinds? [Read all about grinds on knives](/en/ct/knife-grinds.htm).
