Kershaw
Small tools are a discrete way of tackling everyday cutting tasks, and the Rate shows you why. Whether it’s opening packages or breaking down boxes, the Wharncliffe blade slices through common cutting obstacles with its low tip. While this is a smaller folder, it’s comfortable to hold in a pinch grip, especially with added handle jimping. The Rate also opens effortlessly with assisted opening and locks into place with a frame lock. This mighty mini fits snugly in the pocket with a reversible deep-carry clip. With all of these features, the Rate earns a 10/10 for everyday utility use.

The Speed-Safe torsion bar assisted opening allow this knife to be opened with one push. When closed this 4.2 oz. Kershaw knife is 4.5 inches long.
For easy one-handed opening, the Blur is equipped with SpeedSafe assisted opening. A short push on the thumb stud overcomes the resistance built into the torsion bar in the SpeedSafe mechanism. The SpeedSafe takes over and the blade moves out of the handle quickly and easily. One-handed opening is easy with SpeedSafe. The pocket clip is reversible for your choice of tip-up or tip-down carry. There’s even a pre-drilled lanyard hole.

Mini Griptilian® AXIS Lock Folding Knife 2.91″ S30V Satin Flat Ground Sheepsfoot Plain Blade, Black Noryl GTX Handle 555-S30V
$210.00 Add to cartMini Griptilian® AXIS Lock Folding Knife 2.91″ S30V Satin Flat Ground Sheepsfoot Plain Blade, Black Noryl GTX Handle 555-S30V
Benchmade
The 555-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.
