• Ergonomic design - radial milling on the facings provides a secure grip, and a compact clip with a switchable (left/right) enables the knife to be carried discreetly.

• Quick unfolding - the double-sided red anodized aluminum peg allows the knife to be conveniently opened with one hand, making it accessible to both right- and left-handed people.
• Stylish finish - the knife has green anodized elements, such as the aluminum spacer and peg, which give it a sleek and unique look.

Premium stainless steel in the Benchmade Bugout knife

The knife uses a blade with a usable Drop Point profile, made of CPM-S20V powder steel hardened to 59-61 HRC. CPM-S20V is an American "super steel" whose parameters correspond to Bohler's elite M390 stainless steel.

Thanks to its high chromium content and high amount of vanadium carbides , the blade is characterized by exceptionally good corrosion and wear resistance, and very long retention of sharpness.

When choosing a knife made of such steel, it is worth getting a diamond sharpener, as sharpening with a standard ceramic whetstone can be very labor-intensive and inefficient.

The slim Drop Point blade, 82 mm in length, is coated with a satin Cerakote coating, which protects against corrosion, minor scratches and enhances the utility of the knife.

Quick and convenient unfolding of the Benchmade 535-2002 Bugout knife

The blade can be conveniently unfolded with one hand, thanks to the double-sided peg (made of anodized aluminum), allowing both right- and left-handed people to operate the knife comfortably.

The head lock is, of course, the 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-07 Bugout has contoured liners made of extremely durable G10 composite. The glass-epoxy laminate used is characterized by high mechanical strength, resistance to water, temperature change, as well as many acids and solvents.
The contoured shape, combined with the finger undercut and the textured surface of the plastic, ensure excellent grip of the knife and comfort of use. The handle also features a hole for attaching a rope or paracord braid.

Discreetly carrying the knife in your pocket is made possible by the Deep Carry clip with the ability to attach on two sides of the liners.
