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

Got 25% off cause the local Walmart is closing. It feels pretty sturdy, I quite like it! I'll still EDC my Boker Urban Trapper, but I'll probably carry this when I know I'll be abusing the knife a bit more.

Local Walmart is closing so I picked up a Buck 110 on sale

 The blade material is going to be vg10 steel and that's gon na be true on any of the Booker urban trapper knives. It'S a kind of a clip point design, satin, finish hello ground. Very attractive blade shape there. The handle length is going to be three point: three, seven, five inches and again I mentioned the handle material is cocobolo

 That'S not you know it'll kind of drop shut. If you shake it a couple times, but plenty smooth for what it is and for the type of use that most people would have for this, so I'm really diggin the series. As far as price is concerned, I think these should be about ten dollars less than they are. I think, to pay ninety to ninety five dollars, a knife with vg-10 steel and a little bit of titanium is maybe just a little high, and that's just my opinion

 So it's three quarters of an inch additional blade length same steel, same hollow grind, the handles gon na be four and a quarter inches in length. The weight is gon na be 1.9, two ounces of just under two ounces, so both of them are very lightweight for size, same liner, lock, and so that's kind of the deal with the urban trappers. The lockups great the flippin action is fantastic on both the petite and the full-sized

 You know you could get a spider coat delica for 75 bucks $ 70, something like that. Get the same blade. Steel you're not gon na get the g10 with a cocobolo you're gon na get FRN, but again to get a big chunk of eg 10 on a delica for 75 bucks. You know you're looking at a $ 25, almost price increase to upgrade to an urban trapper

Boker Plus Urban Trapper(s) | Full Review

Overall, I really like the style, weight, and blade; I really want to keep it, but I will not if I can't manage to get that screw out. If it had come with a usable tool and was assembled with better care I would have paid $100 for it and given 4 stars, though, as I received it,

 Many of the screws are torqued tighter than it can grip the screws and also won't come out. I'd expect to be able to disassemble a knife of this price for general maintenance / cleaning and repairs, but I cannot with the tool that came with it. I'm hoping a proper torx tool will still get it apart, but I'm not sure I'll ever get out the one that's stripped, not to mention having to find a replacement screw (may return it in that case).

 Thankfully I was able to get to the important screw holding the blade and loosen the tension a bit. That and a couple dabs of oil and it flips open well for its weight, but didn't out of the box. No play on blade when open, but the liner lock is sticky to release (oil didn't help, its a pretty thin friction surface). The flipper also has a very sharp edge where you pull it which catches your hand in a pocket, and has made my index finger a bit raw just from flipping it a few dozen times for testing and tuning it

 From there you can gently pull up the face on the non clip side, push the stop pin out of the way, and pivot the plate like opening scissors around the standoff to free the blade (pay close attention to the bearings so you don't lose or flip them upside down). If you are going to grind the flipper, gently remove the top bearing from the blade first so you don't ruin or lose it. From there you can clean up the blade, oil the joint, reassemble and enjoy. During re-assembly, play with the tightness of the pivot screw

 To get the blade out you need to pull the blade pivot screw on the not clip side. Make sure you keep the knife oriented clip side down as the ball bearings are facing up in that position, I'm not sure if they would fall out but I wouldn't recommend testing that theory based on how they looked (I'd do this away from carpets or messy areas in case). From there you can gently pull up the face on the non clip side, push the stop pin out of the way, and pivot the plate like opening scissors around the standoff to free the blade (pay close attention to the bearings so you don't lose or flip them upside down). If you are going to grind the flipper, gently remove the top bearing from the blade first so you don't ruin or lose it
