Benchmade® has introduced a manual version of the very popular Automatic Presidio II. The Presidio II Manual is equipped with the AXIS® lock, patented by and used extensively by Benchmade. The lock consists of 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. The AXIS® lock has the added benefit of "suck-back," which encourages the blade to stay in the closed position.

The Presidio II is available with a handle of black CF-Elite™. A molded polymer that incorporates strands of carbon fiber, CF-Elite™ is up to 17% lighter and 50% stiffer than traditional glass filled polymers.

This is a beefy knife with a 3-3⁄4" drop point blade of CPM-S30V stainless at 58-60 Rc. It is available in either a plain edge with satin finish or combination edge with a black Cerakote surface. The black anodized 6061-T6 aluminum handles have a tread machined into the sides to insure secure grip. The reversible pocket clip is positioned for tip up carry. Measures 5" closed. Weighs 5.0 oz. Made in the U.S.A. Suggested Retail is $200.00 for satin finish.
