Benchmade: Crafting Custom Knives with Threekit
Benchmade just set the bar - again - for incredible customer experience and post-order efficiency with their Custom Knife Program.
Challenge
For many knife enthusiasts, Benchmade represents the pinnacle of knife craftsmanship, fusing style with substance.
Now, with Benchmade's latest Custom Knife Program, they have yet again demonstrated how knives can be a personal and important reflection of their owner.
We were thrilled to watch the incredible customer experience and story that Benchmade Knives rolled out. With Benchmade and Threekit you can now design a custom Benchmade knife exact to your specifications.
The Experience is Amazing
Starting with the selection of a knife model – and Benchmade doesn't hold back. They offer over 10 stunning models to customize. From the famed Bugout® – the quintessential everyday carry knife – to the exquisite custom single table knife, there's something for everyone.
Once you've settled on a model, it's time to delve into the details. Pick your preferred handle, decide on the blade type, and get ready to witness the magic.
Thanks to Threekit's industry leading Visual Commerce platform, Benchmade offers an unparalleled buyer experience. Buyers can engage with their knife design in breathtakingly vivid 3D, rotating and examining every minute detail.
Want to see your knife in a different color or material? Or perhaps you want to add a personal touch with an icon or a bit of text? These customizations are not just possible; they're effortless.
For those who want a bit of inspiration Benchmade introduced an "inspo" feature — a curated list of starting designs — and a "Shuffle" tool that creates random designs, guiding buyers towards their ideal knife.
