The Benchmade Barrage 580BK is one of the most popular assisted opening knives Benchmade has ever made. 154CM stainless steel takes a keen edge and resists corrosion, and the AXIS Assist action is fast, ambidextrous, and secured by an integrated safety switch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat makes the Benchmade Barrage unique?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Benchmade Barrage 580BK combines the AXIS lock with spring-assisted opening, a pairing few production knives offer. Either thumb stud fires the blade, either hand can close it, and the safety locks the knife closed for carry. It is a Warren Osborne design built in the USA.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the Benchmade Barrage 580BK an automatic knife?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. The Benchmade Barrage 580BK is spring-assisted, not automatic. You begin opening the blade with the thumb stud and the spring completes the motion, which keeps it legal in many areas that restrict automatic knives. Knife laws vary, so check your state and local regulations before carrying.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes Benchmade still sharpen the Barrage 580BK?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. Benchmade's LifeSharp service will clean, tune, and resharpen the Benchmade Barrage 580BK free for the life of the knife, even though the model is discontinued.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere is the Benchmade Barrage 580BK made?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Benchmade Barrage 580BK is made in the USA at Benchmade's facility in Oregon City, Oregon.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere can I buy the Benchmade Barrage 580BK?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eGoing Gear is an authorized Benchmade dealer.
