Let the light shine through the rough-hewn finished handle and illuminate a bold, beautiful, and one-of-a-kind Benchmade folder for hardcore EDC enthusiasts and knife collectors. Produced in limited quantities for the 2025 SHOT Show.
AXIS Lock
A patented Benchmade exclusive, AXIS has been turning heads and winning fans ever since its introduction. A 100 percent amofferextrous design, AXIS gets its function from a small, hardened steel bar that rides forward and back in a slot machined into both steel liners. The bar extends to both sides of the knife, spans the liners, and is positioned over the rear of the blade. It engages a ramped tang portion of the knife blade when it is opened. Two omega-style springs, one on each liner, give the locking bar its inertia to engage the knife tang. As a result, the tang is wedged solidly between a sizable stop pin and the AXIS bar itself.
