The 58-60 HRC hardness provides an excellent balance of sharpness and durability for daily cutting tasks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan the pocket clip be removed or repositioned?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, the Mini Griptilian features a reversible tip-up pocket clip that can be configured for left or right-hand carry. The clip uses standard hardware for easy adjustment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow does the AXIS lock mechanism work?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe AXIS lock uses a spring-loaded bar that moves forward and back in the handle. When open, the bar sits behind the blade tang to lock it in place. Pulling the bar back releases the blade for closing. The system works equally well for left and right-handed users.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs this knife suitable for outdoor use?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Mini Griptilian is designed for everyday and outdoor use. The S30V steel and drop-point blade handle most camping and hiking tasks, though the compact size makes it better suited for detail work than heavy-duty outdoor chores.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat warranty does Benchmade provide?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBenchmade offers their LifeSharp service, which includes free blade sharpening and maintenance for the life of the knife.
