M390 - the queen of knife steels
The knife uses a blade with a utilitarian drop-point profile, made of M390 steel, considered the best steel in the world used in factory knives This super steel is hardened to a hardness of 59-61 HRC. M390 is a luxury stainless steel with a very high vanadium and carbon content, which make the blade unusually have excellent retention, very resistant to abrasion and corrosion. When choosing a hard steel knife, get a diamond sharpener, as sharpening with a standard ceramic whetstone can be very labor-intensive and inefficient.
Quick and convenient unfolding
The blade can be conveniently unfolded with one hand, thanks to the double-sided peg (made of anodized aluminum), allowing right- and left-handed people to operate the knife comfortably.
Reliable security
The head lock is, of course, Axis-lock, Benchmade's flagship mechanism, valued for its great resistance to stress, insensitivity to dirt and ease of use.
Lightweight and elegant liners
The Benchmade 535BK-4 Bugout has liners made of lightweight and durable aircraft-grade aluminum, which, in addition to its striking appearance, ensures the knife's minimal weight - just 71 grams.
