The Barrage is the first to feature the AXIS Assist. They offer quick, one-handed manual assist opening and can be operated equally with either hand. Intended for Everyday use, our Barrage family has a standard clip type with a reversible tip-up clip position. The Mini Barrage 585 has a lanyard hole. Specifications: Designer: Osborne | Mechanism: AXIS-Assist | Action: Assisted-opening | Blade Steel: 154CM (58-61 HRC) | Blade Length: 2.91" (7.39cm) | Blade Thickness: 0.100" (2.54mm) | Open Length: 6.91" (17.55cm) | Closed Length: 4.00" (10.16cm) | Handle Thickness: 0.57" (14.48mm) | Weight: 3.40oz.

Built for precision with a design that has helped it maintain its top status for years, the Benchmade Mini-Barrage 585 has a blade that arrives razor-sharp, and its LifeSharp sharpening service sweetens the deal even further. If you cover shipping costs, Benchmade will return the edge to factory specifications throughout the life of the knife. The handle fits in the palm well and tucks easily into a pants pocket. Pocket clip carry is modular; you can wear it on either side. An assisted opening system, deployable by either hand, reliably pulls the blade to ready status. One can safely lock the blade in the closed position while carrying it in a pocket or purse.
The Mini-Barrage 585 is pricey, but you will undoubtedly realize its value over a long lifespan, especially with Benchmade's LifeSharp service. However, the initial investment may be too much if you are someone who easily misplaces items like this. Also, its slightly down-sized stature will be noticeable for heavy tasks and frequent usage. It is better than our other top award winner but is still a little more compact than ideal for super-extended use. Any bigger pocket knife will likely be too heavy to carry daily and everywhere. As long as you aren't using it for hours and hours a day and as long as you can keep track of it long enough to realize the investment, the Mini-Barrage earns our strongest endorsement. This is the knife we recommend most for everyday carry.

 Can we choke? Not really. I wouldn't suggest that this is very sharp for here. So to release, we'll pull on both sides of this access lock. So we'll pull this position and it is spring loaded

 Hello! Here I have a mini barrage from Benchmade. It's number is 585. This knife was sent to me for review. Let's take a look at it

 This knife was sent to me for review. Let's take a look at it. So these holes here and the emblem there, let's get that. You can see the emblem there

 Very forgiving belt clip. And there is a spring lock here. So this is in the open position. You're going to push down this way and push up for the locking position

Benchmade Mini Barrage 585 review

 Hello! Here I have a mini barrage from Benchmade. It's number is 585. This knife was sent to

 me for review. Let's take a look at it. So these holes here and the emblem there, let's

 get that. You can see the emblem there. There's a pocket clip either side. Knife tip up. Very

 forgiving belt clip. And there is a spring lock here. So this is in the open position.

 You're going to push down this way and push up for the locking position. And then so there's

 an access lock. Here's a thumb stud. You can see it is locked in place. It will not deploy.

 So this will go towards the jimping. Press down and pull. So it is very close to the jimping

 and it will open. I am very unfamiliar with Benchmade's Valox material. They also offer

 this in a G10. And this feels like a G10. But since I have no experience with the Valox,

 there is no way I can tell you what the huge difference is. So ambidextrous

 thumb studs. Let's see, can we do this? Thumb stud here. I'm holding it like that on the belt clip,

 sort of. Whoa! Super nice. Good edge. Good point. There's a clip on this. Very well

 sanded clip. And the user of this has not really done anything other than EDC it

 for the past 10 years. Very good edge retention. Incredible. Can we choke? Not really. I wouldn't

 suggest that this is very sharp for here. So to release, we'll pull on both sides of this access

 lock. So we'll pull this position and it is spring loaded. You can see that I'm letting go

 and there's the snap. So you will not be able to flick it closed. Let's see if we can do a reverse

 flick. So I guess thumb stud here. Not a lot of material. Nope. Nope. There we go.

 Huh. Well, I guess you need practice for that. Very gorgeous knife. Made in America. And there's a

 balance. Let's see. The balance is somewhere about right here. Let's check it out. Here? Maybe?

 Here? Maybe? Slightly? Nope. I didn't balance that. Just about where the access lock is.

 It's a beautiful grind. And really nice grip. I don't know how much larger.

 I don't know. My fingers just like slide in these grooves right here. What is this other side for?

 Oh, like box. Like to cut a box or to tape. Nice. Very ergonomic. Excellent.

 So from my limited research, I found this to be about $155 as the base from Benchmade.com.

 And they don't necessarily make this exact grind anymore, but they do still sell this and it goes

 up from $155. You want a very reliable quality knife. This is high recommendation. Thank you

  Other than the clip, the knife itself is rock solid. Great assisted opening mechanism.

Excellent Knife - Just Wish The Clip Was Stronger

 That way, it does not ever fall open on its own. I carry my barrage in my pocket often and usually don't lock the blade shut with the switch on the knife, but it's probably a good practice to do. I've never had a problem though.  I'm not a huge fan of the plasticy scales (sides of the handle) that come with the knife, but I'd much rather have a stellar blade and locking mechanism than worry about the feel of the handles

 The axis locking mechanism is superb and holds the blade firmly in place with very little wiggle. With a pull on the release mechanism the blade is easy to close, and the way the release is positioned, it ensures your fingers are away from the blade as it's closing. But be careful as with any good knife -- it is sharp!!  The axis-assist open works very reliably and swiftly. As you use the thumb stud to push the blade out of the knife, it crosses a threshold (of about a centimeter open) where the knife opens on its own and locks into place

Great pocket knife

 It has a hollow plastic design that no doubt was to save weight due to the steel liners inside. Other reviews have pointed out that you get a cheap feeling due to this. I agree thus 4 stars instead of 5. I would have liked a more rubberized solid grip even at the expense of more weight! Put this into the Can't Get Everything You Want bucket

The shape of the handle provides a great grip as well, with two very slight depending angles or you might call them quasi-choils on either end of the handle lock my pointer, middle, and ring fingers in place. The knife also has a bit of a badonkadonk, with a larger handle that extends past the downward angle of the choil, giving you an even more secure grip on the knife itself. That some extension also houses the lanyard hole.

I would prefer a positive action on the knife throughout, but when opened it doesn’t feel insecure.

So how about the steel? S30V is a tried and true workhorse. Developed by Crucible with the help of legendary knife maker Chris Reeve, intended to hold a fine sharp edge for a long time, as well as having a very healthy amount of chromium making it extremely rust resistant. 

Benchmade Proper 319 Review | BladeReviews.com

 The blade is made from CPM s30v for a high level of wear and corrosion resistance, and this is going to give enhance performance over traditional, non alloy steels such as 1095. The handles on this particular version are green canvas micarta and are finished in a matte texture. The 319 is built on a stainless steel liner framework and, as you can see, the interior of the liners here are milled out to reduce weight and this knife comes in at just over 2 ounces. So this is going to be a great light

 It also still retains enough point for utilizing in piercing tasks. It opens via a nail nic and you can use that either via the traditional method as a nail neck or as extra traction for a pinch grip open.
