Following the acclaimed update of the Mini Barrage, the full-size variant of this ever-reliable workhorse EDC finally gets its due. Refining an original Warren Osborne design, the palm-filling 581-03 Barrage gets work done with milled blue canyon Richlite handle scales, a CPM-S30V stainless steel drop-point blade with flat dark earth anodized thumb studs, and Benchmade's rapid-release AXIS Assist mechanism with integrated spine safety. When carrying an auto is not an option, pocket this powerful tool.
AXIS Assist
Easily opened, quickly, and with one hand; this evolution of the AXIS includes a spring that helps to fire the blade into the open position once the user pushes it beyond a certain point manually. The AXIS lock also has the added benefit of "suck-back," which encourages the blade to stay in the closed position. AXIS Assist knives also feature integrated safety lock systems.
