— a Benchmade invention: a lock operated by a special movable pin in the front of the handle. When sliding forward, the pin enters the groove on the back of the blade, fixing it, when sliding back, the lock is turned off and the knife can be closed. The pin is often made spring-loaded, and the blade, unlike many simpler solutions, is fixed not only in the open, but also in the closed position. Thanks to this, Axis Lock is considered one of the most secure modern locks. On the other hand, such a mechanism is sensitive to dirt and requires some maintenance (however, simple) for reliable operation.
