The Benchmade 2551 Mini Reflex is an automatic edc knife featuring a CPM 154 stainless steel blade , a discreet deployment button and lightweight anodized aluminum facings . Tool steel The 80mm-long blade is made of 154CM hard tool steel, hardened to a hardness of 58-61 HRC . 154CM is a high-carbon stainless steel enriched with molybdenum, so it can be described as an improved version of 440C. American 154CM steel is valued for its resistance to corrosion and wear (high impact strength), long maintenance of working sharpness and relative ease of sharpening . Dagger head The slim blade with a utilitarian drop point profile is finished by satin (polishing). The matte blade is easier to clean and does not reflect light. Thanks to the strong hilt and flat grind, the knife will work well as a service tool or a standard edc folder . The thickness of the blade at its widest point is 2.5 mm, which is a compromise between durability and functionality of the knife for everyday use. Instant unfolding The main advantage of the automatic knife, is the comfortable and fast unfolding system . Unlike models with an assisted head, in an automatic knife unfolding of the blade requires only pressing a button , which is responsible for releasing the lock and activating the internal spring. Folding the blade requires pressing the button again and manually retracting the blade. Such functionality makes "automatics" very popular among soldiers, uniformed service personnel and edc enthusiasts. The release button is embedded in a milled cutout, so it does not protrude above the handle. The knife uses an additional locking mechanism, which prevents accidental pressing of the activation button and folding of the blade. The slide of the second safety mechanism is located on the back of the handle. Extreme caution and prudence are recommended when using the automatic knife. Comfortable grip The knife has ergonomic liners made of anodized aircraft-grade 6061-T6 aluminum that form a monolithic unit with the backspacer. Thanks to precise 3D machining, the handle has a striking design and good grip, which is provided by deep milling and a shape profiled for the hand . The black anodized coating is resistant to fading, scratching and abrasion, which guarantees the knife's attractive appearance for a long time. Discreetly carrying the knife in your pocket is made possible by a standard fixed-position clip.
