Spotlight: Benchmade Bugout

The Benchmade Bugout is known as the most lightweight and reliable pocket knives on the market. Designed for those who value quality, durability and light weight, the Bugout will be the perfect companion when you're hiking through the woods or just going about your daily business. It's no surprise to us that the Bugout is a popular choice among backpackers, adventurers and EDC fans.

Benchmade Bugout: lightweight with great cutting capabilities

If you are considering buying a Benchmade Bugout, you probably appreciate the balance between light weight and ease of use. With a total weight of just 55 grams, you would almost forget that you are carrying it with you. But don't let its weight fool you; this knife is impressively strong.

Benchmade Bugout: top-quality blade

The drop-point knife blade of the Benchmade Bugout is made of 2.3 mm thick premium CPM S30V steel. It strikes the perfect balance between sharpness, toughness and corrosion resistance. The result? A knife that retains its sharpness for a long time, cuts through basically anything and is low maintenance. The blade is perfect for all your EDC tasks and food preparation. You can even use it to create feathersticks!

Handle made from lightweight and durable Grivory

Grivory was chosen for the handle of the Benchmade 535 Bugout. This is a lightweight type of plastic that is remarkably strong for its weight. The knife features steel liners at the front of the handle for additional strength around the lock. Usually, the Axis lock is equipped with a steel pin. To save weight, Benchmade also created a Bugout with a titanium version.

Moreover, the handle with its subtle texture offers excellent grip in all weather conditions. The Bugout's ergonomic shape and light weight make it pleasant to use, also when you're wearing gloves.

Deep-carry pocket clip

The Benchmade Bugout is perfect for EDC use. You can easily carry it nice and deep inside your pocket with the deep-carry pocket clip. As the knife is pretty slim, you'll hardly feel it in your pocket. The knife comes with the pocket clip on the right-hand side. However, you can easily place the clip on the left side, which is nice for left-handed users.

Exceptional quality

Although many find the Benchmade Bugout a bit pricey, we think it offers great value for money. You get a knife designed and made from premium materials in the United States. With the Bugout, you invest in a tool that will serve you well for years to come, no matter what challenges come your way.

Different versions

The Benchmade Bugout series includes different versions, including some special models. This allows you to choose a knife that suits your needs and style perfectly. Whether you prefer the original look with a blue handle or something more striking like the carbon fibre varsion with CPM S90V blade, the Bugout offers something for everyone. Each model retains the Bugout's signature qualities: lightweight, durable and extremely functional.

The carbon variant excels in lightweight durability and features the hard-wearing CPM S90V steel, ideal for demanding users. In contrast, the aluminium version combines robustness with the sharp and corrosion-resistant M390 steel, perfect for daily intensive use.

Do you want to customize your Bugout? That's possible! There are many replacing scales available, like the ones made by Flytanium.

The Benchmade Mini Bugout

Besides the standard Bugout, there's also the Benchmade Mini Bugout. Perfect for those who want a more compact version of this popular knife. With its smaller size, you'll hardly notice this pocket knife in your pocket.
