There was a time when a thread begging for an Axis lock Mini Reflex lasted a loooong time. I think Les DeAsis did a lot of the design work himself back then, but he was also working closely with Mel Pardue at that point too. The Mini Reflex actually has an Achilles heal...Due to the button lock design, the tang of the blade is quite small in cross section, and it won't stand up to much extreme prying, especially in ATS-34. 581BK-1102 Hybrid, 585-1BK Mini Barrage, 587SBK-1 Mini Warn, Bradley Alias I LE, 581, 525/Bone Collector, 941BLU, 520BK/Bone Collector, 760Ti Krein Regrind, 583SBK-1 Warn Tanto, HK14210, 707-701, 140HS, 551-101 Gold Grip, 941BC, 950BK M4, 220, 30, 42, 32, 53 | |||

Holy smoke--never thought of it but it figures. But shoot, you ever see the tang on an Endura 4 out of the scales? Not much there around the pivot either. ..............................................................................................................................

Ah, yes, interesting. That would seem to be inherent in the lockback design as well. Liner locks tend to have robust tangs, and thankfully Axis locks are similar. I don't like to extrapolate to an entire model based on one experience, but I managed to break one Mini Reflex, and it came as quite a surprise. 581BK-1102 Hybrid, 585-1BK Mini Barrage, 587SBK-1 Mini Warn, Bradley Alias I LE, 581, 525/Bone Collector, 941BLU, 520BK/Bone Collector, 760Ti Krein Regrind, 583SBK-1 Warn Tanto, HK14210, 707-701, 140HS, 551-101 Gold Grip, 941BC, 950BK M4, 220, 30, 42, 32, 53 | |||
