The Benchmade CLA Composite Lite Auto is a lightweight automatic folder with a satin 154CM drop point blade and a G10 handle (Benchmade part no. 4300-1). Its plain edge and drop point profile make it a versatile everyday blade, and the automatic action opens the knife at the push of a button. A reversible tip-up pocket clip lets you set it up for left or right carry. Benchmade builds it in the USA. For EDC users who want an automatic with a proven steel and a slim profile, it fits the role.
