Benchmade Mini Osborne Folding Knife CPM-S30V - Blue&Black G10

Light folding EDC (Every Day Carry) knife designed by Australian knifemaker Warren Osborne. The blade in the Reverse Tanto profile is made of high-quality CPM-S30V steel with a hardness of 58-60 HRC, which is characterized by high resistance to corrosion and mechanical damage, as well as excellent edge retention. The blade surface is finished with a satin method that gives it a semi-matte effect.

axis lock, double-sided thumb stud

The double-sided thumb stud on the blade allows for easy and quick one-handed opening of the knife. The two-sided, manual Axis Lock prevents accidental folding of the blade during use.

anti-slip handle, steel clip

The handle scales made of G10 laminate consisting of resin and fibreglass are covered with a anti-slip texture. Additionally, the handle features a steel tip-up clip that can be repositioned to the other side, allowing safe carrying of the knife, e.g., in a pants pocket.

Benchmade Knife Company is an American brand founded in 1988 by Les de Asis in Oregon, with roots dating back to the 1970s when it operated as Bali-Song. The company became famous for producing folding and combat knives, and its butterfly logo refers to the first balisong models, which were awarded the title of Knife of the Year in 1979. Today, Benchmade manufactures knives in three lines: Blue Class, Black Class, and Gold Class, using modern powder steels such as S30V, M390, and CPM-20CV, and the patented Axis Lock, valued for its reliability and smooth operation. Among the brand's icons are the Griptilian, Bugout, 940 Osborne, Infidel, and Bushcrafter models, and the company regularly collaborates with renowned knifemakers such as Mel Pardue, Warren Osborne, and Ernest Emerson. Benchmade was the first knife manufacturer in the US to implement fully automated CNC production, achieving unprecedented precision and repeatability in the industry.

CPM S30V feature
CPM S30V
CPM S30V is a powder stainless steel developed by Crucible Industries in collaboration with knifemaker Chris Reeve. It is distinguished by its precisely selected formula, containing carbon, chromium, molybdenum, and vanadium. The carbon content is approximately 1.45%, which ensures high hardness and long-lasting sharpness. Chromium (approximately 14%) is responsible for very good corrosion resistance, which makes S30V steel suitable for use in various, even difficult environments. Additions of molybdenum (approximately 2%) and vanadium (approximately 4%) increase the steel's wear resistance and improve its strength. As a result, CPM S30V provides an optimal balance between hardness, strength, and corrosion resistance, making it an ideal choice for the production of high-quality knives. After heat treatment, the steel achieves a hardness of 58-61 HRC, which is crucial for maintaining a sharp edge and resistance to deformation under stress.
Axis-Lock feature
Axis-Lock
Axis-Lock is a folding knife locking mechanism patented by Bill McHenry and Jason Williams, popularized and licensed by Benchmade. A spring steel bar (crossbar) slides transversely between the scales and fits into a recess on the back of the blade, firmly locking it in the open position. The mechanism works thanks to two omega springs that press the bar into the lock, ensuring smooth, two-handed operation and no play. To close the knife, simply slide the bar toward the rear of the handle and release the catch, allowing you to safely fold the blade without risking contact between your fingers and the blade.
G10 feature
G10
G10 is a lightweight and extremely durable material, considered one of the best for knife production. It is created by pressure-pressing fiberglass with phenolic resin, which gives it high durability and resistance to mechanical damage. It is chemically inert, does not conduct electricity, and retains its properties at both low and high temperatures. In terms of parameters, it is similar to carbon fiber, but its production is much cheaper. G10 handles are manufactured by precision cutting and cutting, which increases the cost of processing but ensures a perfect fit and long knife life.
Satin feature
Satin
Satin finishing is one of the most popular blade finishes, achieved by grinding the steel with fine-grained abrasives. Parallel micro-scratches remain on the surface, giving the knife a technical, matte appearance. Satin finishing has both aesthetic and practical significance - a smoothed blade is easier to clean, and the slightly reduced friction promotes smoother cutting. Depending on the direction and intensity of polishing, different effects are achieved - from a matte finish to an almost mirror-like finish. Satin is valued in both utility and collector's knives because it emphasizes the structure and quality of the steel while maintaining functionality.

    Benchmade is a bit pricey, a butterfly knife is not cheap. But the knife is very good – excellent steel, sharp as it should be, comfortable in the hand despite its relatively small size. I definitely recommend it!

    I like it very much, it feels great in the hand and is very comfortable to use. The blade is dedicated more to tough work, so it's not as sharp as a razor compared to many Spyderco models. In real life it is much smaller than in the photos, which is a big plus. I highly recommend it!

    Great knife. Ergonomics 10/10. However, the build quality compared to WE or even Civivi, is lacking. Considering the price and the workmanship, regardless of the history of this knife, 3/5.

    Small, neat little knife, almost invisible, with wonderful quality! Much smaller than the older brother, but very handy even for my big hands. The key is the fantastic lock and the smoothness with which the blade moves. Wonderful purchase!

    Sharp, slim, and fast. Fits well in the pocket, almost weightless. Sometimes I forget I have it on me. The handle scales aren't slippery and it's enjoyable to click. Great!
