New guy with a benchmade question

[big70tom]

Are all benchmade 580 barrage knives also osbornes? ARE THEY ALL REFERED TO AS 580 OSBORN BARRAGE, OR IS THERE A 580 BARRAGE AS WELL? THANKS.

Warren Osborne is the designer. The Barrage is the name of the model, and there are two sizes, the large is the 580, the mini is the 585. I have both and think they're good knives, both based on the sturdy Axis lock and these being assisted openers.

Hope that helps.

Osborne is the designer of the Barrage, thus all 580 Barrage knives are Osbornes.

They're both osbornes.

Osborne also designed some other stuff (930, 940, 950, 960, etc)
