Overall length is 7.18\" open and 4.07\" closed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat does BK mean on the Benchmade Mini Boost 595BK?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe BK suffix on the Benchmade Mini Boost 595BK describes the blade, not the handle. The 595BK carries a black coated CPM-S30V drop point on the same gray Grivory and black Versaflex handle as the standard Mini Boost 595.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat steel does the Benchmade Mini Boost 595BK use?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Benchmade Mini Boost 595BK uses CPM-S30V premium stainless steel at 58-60 HRC. The black coating adds glare reduction and extra corrosion protection over S30V's already reliable stainless performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the Benchmade Mini Boost 595BK an automatic knife?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. The Benchmade Mini Boost 595BK is an assisted opening knife. The AXIS Assist mechanism finishes the blade's travel after you start it with the thumb stud, and an integrated safety keeps it closed. Assisted openers face fewer restrictions than automatics in most places, but always verify your local knife laws.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is a Blue Class Benchmade knife?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBlue Class was Benchmade's everyday carry tier, and the Benchmade Mini Boost 595BK shipped under that label before Benchmade retired the class system. It was built in Oregon City, Oregon like every Benchmade.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes LifeSharp cover the Benchmade Mini Boost 595BK?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. Benchmade's LifeSharp lifetime service covers the Benchmade Mini Boost 595BK even though it is discontinued. Benchmade will clean, adjust, and factory resharpen the knife at no charge.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere can I buy the Benchmade Mini Boost 595BK?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Benchmade Mini Boost 595BK is discontinued, so remaining stock is scarce and secondary prices vary. Going Gear is an authorized Benchmade dealer and carries current compact Benchmade EDC folders such as the Mini Bugout and Mini Barrage.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Benchmade","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52876879855936,"sku":"BEN-595BK","price":166.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0807\/8953\/7088\/files\/595bk_agency_1000x1000_1.jpg?v=1785256119","url":"https:\/\/goinglights.com\/products\/benchmade-595bk-mini-boost-3-11","provider":"Going Lights","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
