Inspired by the mysterious spectacle of the vivid, purple haze of an Artic sunset, Benchmade crafted this unique EDC for the hardcore collector. The 2025 Gold Class 525BK-251 Mini Barrage is designed with fast-deploying AXIS assist for boosted actuation. This knife features premium Purple Haze FatCarbon handle scales, Abyss PVD-coated hardware, and a black DLC BattleWash finished CPM-S90V stainless steel drop-point blade. This Gold Class Mini Barrage is limited to 3,500 pieces and is only available in 2025, just as ephemeral as the natural phenomenon which inspired it.
The evolution of the AXIS Assist provides you with easy, quick, one-handed opening. A spring helps fire the blade open once pushed past a certain point manually. Additionally, the AXIS lock has the added benefit of "suck-back", which encourages the blade to stay in the closed position when you need it to. AXIS Assist knives feature integrated safety lock system.
Includes a purple pocket clip for tip-up carry only on the right or left side.
Made in the USA.
