Benchmade 535BK-08 Bugout is the latest version of the popular everyday folder, valued for its functionality, lightness and comfort of use.

Benchmade Bugout - a lightweight, versatile EDC knife

The style of the new Benchmade Bugout is inevitably associated with a tactical knife, thanks to the muted colors of the lining and the blade. The knife uses a blade with a utility drop-point profile, made of CPM-S30V stainless steel hardened to 58-60 HRC. The 82 mm long blade has optimal size and functionality and is perfect for everyday tasks. CPM-S30V powder steel is characterized by high hardness and resistance to damage, which ensures its optimal sharpness for a long time. The entire blade is covered with a gray Ceraktor ceramic coating, which is highly resistant to abrasion and additionally protects against corrosion and oxidation.

Benchmade knife with axis lock - a guarantee of safe work

The blade can be conveniently unfolded with one hand thanks to the use of a double-sided pin (made of anodized aluminum), thus enabling comfortable operation of the knife for right and left-handed people. The blade lock is, of course, Axis-lock, the flagship mechanism of the Benchmade brand, valued for its great resistance to loads, insensitivity to dirt and ease of use.

Thanks to the use of Grivory material linings, the knife is ultra-light (only 52.4 g), so when you carry it in your pocket, you can forget about having it. The quenched gray color of the cladding (Storm Gray) contrasts effectively with the black hardware of the knife. A high-mounted clip with a reversal option (left/right) allows you to carry the knife in your pocket in a discreet and unobtrusive way.

The Benchmade 535BK-08 Bugout is a beautifully designed and crafted knife, created to provide the highest comfort and functionality. A perfect choice for a knife for every lover of the EDC philosophy!
