Benchmade Mini Barrage 586BK Folding Knife
The Benchmade Mini Barrage 586BK is a compact assisted-opening folder and the design that introduced Benchmade's AXIS-Assist mechanism. It combines a 2.91" black-coated 154CM drop-point blade with a two-tone black G10 handle, aluminum bolsters, and stainless steel liners. An integrated spine safety locks the blade closed, while the AXIS-Assist spring snaps the 586BK open with a quick push of the thumb-stud.
