Product Description

The Benchmade 585 Mini Barrage is the compact version of the 580 — same AXIS Assist mechanism, same black Valox construction, scaled down to a 2.91-inch blade for buyers who want assisted-opening speed in a package that fits a smaller hand or a front pocket without bulk.

The blade is 154CM stainless, satin finished with a hollow grind. 154CM is a reliable, easy-to-maintain workhorse alloy — it holds a working edge through regular use and sharpens without much effort, which makes it the right choice for a folder that gets carried and used rather than displayed. The drop point keeps the tip strong and the belly curved for utility tasks. Black Valox (glass-filled nylon) handle scales are lightweight and moisture-resistant with enough texture for a secure grip. At 2.65 oz the Mini Barrage carries noticeably lighter than the full-size 580 while the AXIS Lock still delivers the same ambidextrous, one-handed close.

Ships same or next business day from Knifeworks in Columbia, Louisiana.
