The company Benchmade ranks among the most recognisable knife brands in the world. It is therefore no surprise that every knife they make offers top-quality workmanship and premium quality.
Model 580 represents the Blue Class of folding knives. Its blade with a drop point tip and flat grind is made from stainless steel 154CM hardened to 58–61 HRC. The blade length is 91 mm and the thickness is 3 mm. On the blade surface you will notice a dual thumb stud, which offers an easy way to deploy it.
In the open position, the blade is secured by an improved AXIS Lock mechanism additionally equipped with a spring to achieve faster deployment (assisted opening).
A stable grip is ensured by a handle made of two scales from Valox thermoplastic resin, additionally reinforced with steel liners. Thanks to the ergonomic finger grooves, working with the knife is safe and stable. For easier carry and attachment, the knife is fitted with a reversible clip.
