The Benchmade 535BK-08 Bugout is the latest installment of the popular everyday folder, valued for its functionality, lightweight and comfortable use.
Benchmade Bugout - a lightweight EDC knife with versatile uses
The styling of the new Benchmade Bugout is inevitably associated with a tactical knife, thanks to the quenched color scheme of the facings and the blade. The knife uses a blade with a utilitarian drop-point profile, made of CPM-S30V stainless steel hardened to 58-60 HRC. The 82mm long blade is of optimal size and functionality, great for everyday tasks. The CPM-S30V powder steel is characterized by high hardness and resistance to damage, which ensures its optimal sharpness for a long time. The entire head is coated with gray Cerakote ceramic coating, which has a high abrasion resistance, it also further protects against corrosion and oxidation.
Benchmade knife with axis lock - a guarantee of safe operation
The blade can be conveniently unfolded with one hand, thanks to a double-sided peg (made of anodized aluminum), allowing right- and left-handed people to operate the knife comfortably. The head lock is, of course, Axis-lock, the flagship mechanism of the Benchmade brand, valued for its great resistance to stress, insensitivity to dirt and ease of use.
EDC knives from the American brand Benchmade
Thanks to the use of Grivory plastic facings, the knife is ultralight (only 52.4 g), so when carrying it in your pocket, you can forget about carrying it. The gray quenched color of the linings (Storm Gray) contrasts strikingly with the black hardware of the knife. The high-set clip, with the option of translation (left/right), allows you to carry the knife in your pocket in a discreet and unobtrusive way.
The Benchmade 535BK-08 Bugout is a wonderfully designed and crafted knife, created to provide the ultimate in convenience and functionality. An excellent choice for a knife for any lover of the EDC philosophy!
