Frequently Asked Questions
What blade steel does the Benchmade Volli 1000001S use?
The Benchmade Volli 1000001S uses CPM-S30V stainless steel hardened to 58-60 HRC, a premium American powder steel that balances edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance for everyday carry.
What is a combo edge on the Benchmade Volli 1000001S?
The Benchmade Volli 1000001S has a combo edge, meaning the 3.26" drop point blade is plain toward the tip and partially serrated toward the handle. The plain section handles precise slicing while the serrations bite through rope, straps, and cordage.
What is AXIS-Assist on the Benchmade Volli 1000001S?
AXIS-Assist pairs Benchmade's ambidextrous AXIS lock with a spring that helps drive the blade open once you start it with the thumb stud. The Benchmade Volli 1000001S opens quickly and one-handed from either side, and the AXIS lock secures the blade for right or left hand users.
