It pairs a 3.11\" satin CPM-S30V drop point blade with Benchmade's AXIS Assist mechanism and integrated safety, wrapped in a dark gray Grivory handle with a black Versaflex overmold for the Boost line's signature dual durometer grip. At 3.31 oz it disappears in a pocket while still opening with a satisfying assisted snap. Benchmade has discontinued the Boost line, and this page stays current for owners and collectors.

The satin CPM-S30V drop point rides in a 4.07\" closed handle for a 7.18\" overall length, a compact footprint that stays legal to carry in more places than larger folders.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat steel does the Benchmade Mini Boost 595 use?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Benchmade Mini Boost 595 uses CPM-S30V, an American made premium stainless steel hardened to 58-60 HRC with a strong balance of edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is the difference between the Benchmade Mini Boost and the Mini Barrage?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBoth are compact AXIS Assist folders, but the Benchmade Mini Boost 595 uses the Boost line's dual durometer Grivory and Versaflex overmolded handle and a 3.11\" S30V blade, while the Benchmade Mini Barrage 585 uses hard Valox or G10 scales and a 2.91\" blade. The Mini Boost gives more grip texture and reach, and the Mini Barrage runs slightly smaller and more traditional.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the Benchmade Mini Boost 595 an automatic knife?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. The Benchmade Mini Boost 595 is an assisted opening knife. The AXIS Assist mechanism completes the opening after you start the blade with the thumb stud, and an integrated safety keeps it closed in the pocket. Assisted openers face fewer legal restrictions than automatics in most areas, but always check your local laws.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is a Blue Class Benchmade knife?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBlue Class was Benchmade's label for its everyday carry models, and the Benchmade Mini Boost 595 was part of that tier before Benchmade retired the class system. Like all Benchmade knives, it was made in Oregon City, Oregon.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes LifeSharp cover the Benchmade Mini Boost 595?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. Benchmade's LifeSharp lifetime service covers the Benchmade Mini Boost 595 even though the model is discontinued. Benchmade will clean, tune, and factory resharpen it for free.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere can I buy the Benchmade Mini Boost 595?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Benchmade Mini Boost 595 is discontinued, so remaining stock is limited and secondary market prices vary. Going Gear is an authorized Benchmade dealer and stocks current compact Benchmade folders such as the Bugout and Mini Barrage that fill the same EDC role.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Benchmade","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52876873072960,"sku":"BEN-595","price":157.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0807\/8953\/7088\/files\/8D45A641-BB0C-4A79-9C11-EEB0AD758C24.jpg?v=1785256094","url":"https:\/\/goinglights.com\/products\/benchmade-595-mini-boost-3-11-in-satin-cpm-s30v-blade","provider":"Going Lights","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
