Benchmade 580 barrage

he benchmade barrage 580 2. Now this is a rerelease of the barrage design with upgraded materials. We'Ve seen this with the benchmade line of grip dil...

Love the knife. Feels great in hand but within a day the blade refused to open all the way. Seems to be a problem with the spring. I am surprised that a Benchmade knife would fail so quickly and am hoping that this is just a fluke.

Less than impressed with the sellers ship speed. It seems like they spent a week twiddling their thumbs before getting it in the mail. That said, it did show up as advertised and decently packaged. The knife itself is overall very satisfactory. It exceeds my expectations both for function & fashion....

This is great medium weight knife. Benchmade sells a lot lighter, and there are a lot heavier knives. I wouldn't use this knife to live in the forest but I wouldn't go there without it. Its a great middle ground of weight and size. The assisted opening spring gives it a wonderful feel and if i buy a...

Benchmade puts approximately a 30 degree edge (60 degrees total) on its knives from the factory. My knife was about that sharp, but would not cut paper out of the box. A quick change to 25 degrees was achieved with Work Sharp belt grinder. The S30V steel in the Benchmade 580-2 takes a few more minut...

I love this knife. It is very solid and well put together. The handle is made out of some sort of special plastic-like material. While I don't doubt the durability or functionality of this material, it isn't as beautiful as natural materials. That's the reason for four instead of five stars.

I loved this knife when I bought it used it for over a month pretty frequently and blade didn't seem to dull at all added to that the lifetime sharpening from Benchmade made a much better buy and the blade came razor sharp and oiled

Quality was not that good that lead me to return the knife. No one touches the quality of Zero Tolerance!

I'm in love with an inanimate object. And that object is the Benchmade 580S Barrage Knife. It's a beauty to behold in my hand. Comfortable, elegant, simple, sharp, slim, and just the right heft. The AXIS spring assist opening sprints the blade out faster than an eyeblink. It works much better than t...

I've happily been using my 3 or 4 year-old original Benchmade Barrage 580, yet felt compelled to upgrade to this "new" knife, primarily because of the S30V steel used in the blade. And the gray G10 handle helped make the decision, too. My old Barrage, formerly my EDC knife, likely will go to a famil...
