Part #: BM535FE05 | Benchmade Knives
Description
BM535FE05: 535FE-05 Bugout Crater Blue
Benchmade Knives
The Bugout is one of the most popular knives in the Benchmade line—and one of the most pocketed blades in the EDC community. Originally designed and built for outdoor adventurers who demand durability in a light, ergonomic, barely-there package, it's also exactly what you'd want for the daily grind, too. It comes in a CPM-S30V drop-point blade to make maintenance a breeze. The Crater Blue Grivory handle, reminiscent of the icy depths of the sea, is contrasted nicely by the Flat Dark Earth Cerakote blade finish.

A great knife with weak scales
This is an amazing little knife. So light yet so functional. Great blade shape & a great hand feel except for the squishy scales. I know liners would have defeated the purpose/intent of this knife but stiffer scales would make this a 6 out of 5. A knife meant to be carried on the run.
