Taken from Benchmade Knives material section. This helps explain the composition of both materials.

Quote
CARBON FIBER- A contemporary, premium composite of thin strands of carbon tightly woven into various weave patterns, then set in resin, which is most commonly clear but can be color tinted. It offers great looks and is fairly strong for its minimal weight.


Quote
G10- An extremely durable makeup of layers of fiberglass soaked in resin, then highly compressed and baked. Impervious to moisture or liquid and physically stable under climate change. Most commonly black, but is available in various colors, too. Benchmade was the first knife manufacturer to use G10.
