Ken Onion Leek-DIG CAMO Factory Special Series Pocket Knife 1660DGRY
$154.00
What can be said about the Leek that hasn’t already been said? It’s probably Ken Onion’s most famous production knife design, which, considering the amount of work Onion has done with Kershaw and others, is really saying something. But, in the years since its original release, as the everyday carry knife category grew and grew, there may be some newer members of the knife community who got into the hobby after the Leek’s heyday. Honestly, we think it still holds up when compared to the next generation of EDC knives, with a blade shape ideal for day-to-day chores and a quirky look all its own.
The alterations made to the Leek for this special edition are purely cosmetic, with the assisted-opener’s standard aluminum scales spiffed up with a hydro-dipped, gray digicam coating, and the 14C27N blade given a complimentary blackwash finish. Everything else is the same: same handle shape, same clip, same great carry weight of 2.5 oz.

$210.00 Add to cartMini Griptilian AXIS Lock Folding Knife 2.91″ S30V Black Flat Ground Sheepsfoot Plain Blade, Black Noryl GTX Handle 555BK-S30V
Benchmade
The 555BK-S30V Mini Griptilian model features a flat ground CPM-S30V blade, round thumb-hole openers and an AXIS lock mechanism. The handles are made from Noryl GTX with a reversible pocket clip for completely ambidextrous carry. With multiple blade styles, sizes and colors your Grips just got a little wilder.
CPM-S30V Stainless Steel
A premium steel created especially for knives, it is a powder steel creating uniform carbide distribution and clean steel properties. As a blade material, it offers excellent corrosion resistance and superb edge qualities. This stainless steel is extremely well balanced, making it one of the best all-around choices for daily tasks.
AXIS Lock
A Benchmade original, AXIS has been turning heads and winning fans ever since its introduction. A 100 percent ambidextrous 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.
