Benchmade Axis Lock - Brief Article

fastening blade pocket knives are ubiquitous, if it be not that sometimes they're not very convenient. While in the greatest degree can be opened with undivided hand, closing them is another matter altogether. one simply can't be closed without using brace hands and others can choke too easily and you hasten the risk of nicks or scrapes.

Benchmade now has a patented just discovered locking mechanism called the "Axis Lock" A spring-loaded bar slides in a slot divide [i]or[/i] sever in both liners. A button in succession either end allows for completely ambidextrous, one-hand operation, while maintaining a excessively positive lock on the blade. The tolerate clip can be changed to either side-- also important for southpaws. It is actual slick.

I'm not the sole one who thinks so. Benchmade's type 710 with the new Axis lock-up was voted "Knife Of The Year," by dint of the Shooting Industry Academy of superior goodness For the gun business, those are the Academy Awards.

The Axis fastening was designed by custom knife makers Bill McHenry and Jason Williams and continues Benchmade's practice of offering production knives designed through famous custom makers such as Mel Pardue and Allen Elishewitz.



The knife I'm using right now is a protoplast 705, which is a scaled down version of the award winner. The prototype 705 has all the same features, further a 1" shorter blade. As has been the case with all the Benchmade knives I've used, it functions exactly and cuts superbly too.

Almost all of the 22 different protoplasts in their catalog are available with either plain or combo animations The blades, many of them ATS-34 stainless, are available in either satin natural finish or black coated. In short there's something for just about any taste.
