Analytic Description
Benchmade 290BK-1 Full Immuity™ Flat Dark Earth Aluminum
Article number: 290BK-1
When blade length is restricted, necessity isn’t. Designed for ease of concealment and compact utility, the Full Immunity™ features a sub-2.5-inch CPM-M4 blade with a Cobalt Black Cerakote finish, boasting outstanding edge retention and strength in a Wharncliffe profile tapering to an ultra-fine point. The included lanyard speeds up retrieval from the pocket for manual deployment in evolving situations. Finished with anodized Flat Dark Earth aluminum handle scales, the Full Immunity™ is a concentrated dose of full-fledged utility in a compact configuration
AXIS Lock®
A patented Benchmade exclusive, 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.
