The textured black Valox handle with steel liners keeps the knife around 4.2 oz, and the all-black build makes it a natural for duty and tactical carry.

The Benchmade Barrage 583BK is one of the most popular assisted opening knives Benchmade has made, and its black-coated tanto blade adds a stronger tip and a low-glare finish to the proven AXIS Assist action.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat makes the Benchmade Barrage unique?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Benchmade Barrage 583BK combines the AXIS lock with spring-assisted opening, a pairing few production knives offer. Either thumb stud fires the blade and the integrated safety locks it closed in the pocket. It is a Warren Osborne design built in the USA.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is a tanto blade?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA tanto blade has a flat main edge that meets a second angled edge at the tip, creating a strong, reinforced point built for piercing tough materials. On the Benchmade Barrage 583BK that tanto geometry is ground from black-coated 154CM stainless steel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the Benchmade Barrage 583BK an automatic knife?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. The Benchmade Barrage 583BK 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 automatics. Knife laws vary, so check your state and local regulations before carrying.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes Benchmade still sharpen the Barrage 583BK?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes.
