Mini Griptilian® Folding Knife AXIS® Lock S30V Plain Black Benchmade 556-S30V

The Mini Griptilian® is a folding knife that is a smaller version of the Griptilian® knife from the renowned manufacturer Benchmade. The Griptilian® series of knives has earned praise from users around the world for its reliability and durability. This lightweight design is ideal for everyday use as an EDC (Every Day Carry) knife. The knife was created with legendary designer Mel Pardue who had the vision to create a rugged, reliable and functional tool.

The blade of the knife with a Drop-Point profile is made from CPM S30V stainless steel, which is manufactured with CPM technology by American company Crucible Materials. The S30V steel was specifically created for high-end knife production and renowned knife-maker Chris Reeve participated in the development process. The steel with a hardness of 58-60 HRC is valued by users due to its cutting properties and long lasting sharpness.

The knife opens with the thumb using a double-sided bolt and a high-quality AXIS® Lock is responsible for the smooth opening and closing process. The advantage of this type of lock is very easy operation by both right- and left-handed users, in addition, it is more tolerant of contamination compared to other types of locks.

The facings of the folder are made of durable Noryl GTX plastic, which has an anti-slip texture that provides a secure and comfortable grip. In the rear part of the handle there is a hole for attaching a safety lanyard or threading a paracord.

The Mini Griptilian® is equipped with a standard clip on both sides for carrying the knife in the Tip-Up position.
