Bugout 535 EDC Manual Open Folding Knife, Drop Point Blade, Plain Edge, Satin Finish, Blue Grivory Handle, Made in USA, Grivory Handle/Benchmade Blue/Plain Edge/Satin Finish

Una navaja muy robusta y al mismo tiempo ligera que la hacen muy adecuada como herramienta EDC. El acero de la hoja es de gran calidad y el mecanismo de bloqueo funciona con una suavidad increíble.

For comparison, I have the Northfork(wood), regular griptilian, 940-2, bug out, and series of other knives including several spydercos including the paramilitary 2 and karahawk. I initially liked the quality of the spydercos and they were among my first higher quality knives that I owned. I was always under the impression that spydercos were top of the line, but then I decided to try the grip full sized. Then I went nuts and got the 940, then the bug out, then the mini grip. These knives hold an edge longer than other knives by far of the same steel. Not only that, the axis lock > any other locking mechanism hands down. The blade shapes imho are more practical and universal. After owning the north fork and mini, I didn't think I needed a bug out but this is a solid knife. Slightly longer than a mini grip and north fork but slightly shorter than a 940. Thinner and much lighter than all the knives I have in my collection. It is a solid knife to add to the rotation so much that all of my spydercos except the pm2 are being phased out. Comparably, the manix is the next best thing within this size but I much prefer the ergos of benchmades, this blade shape, and the quality of heat treat to this metal over all. Honestly, I was concerned from reviews about the scales and the pocket clip. It's true the scales feel cheap but they're solid. I don't believe it'll break at all. I wouldn't use this as a survival or bush knife but edc or slicing, it's perfect and extremely effective. The pocket clip is great, love the size and how much less evasive it looks than a full sized pocket clip. I don't understand what the complaints about the pocket clip is about as I have no issues sliding the clip into my pants easily without needing to fiddle with it, even when I got it brand new and hadn't broken it in yet. My favorites in order 1. 940 2. Grip 3. Bug out, north fork, and mini grip (can't decide) (I love the light Bug out and the clip but the scales feel cheap even though they're pretty sturdy but the other knives are thicker and better suited for piercing and heavier duty, therefore pros and cons depending on what you need it for) 4. Pm2 5. Karahawk I am typically very brand neutral, but I've been won over from spydercos hands down. I just need bm to come out with a knife that rivals the karahawk. 100% recommend the bug out. I have the original blue. I'm looking at a adamas to complete my collection

Sin duda una de las mejores navajas que he comprado. Es muy ligera y el filo excepcional. Es muy divertido abrirla y cerrarla con una sola mano son su candado AXIS. El material del mango podría ser de mejor calidad pero aun así le doy 5 estrellas!

Das Bugout ist zu einem meiner absoluten Lieblingsmesser geworden. Ich habe leider eine kleine Sammelleidenschaft für Klappmesser, viele Victorinox aber auch US-Messer, insb. Spyderco und Kershaw (Zero Tolerance) haben es mir angetan. Das Bugout war nach dem Griptilian mein erstes Benchmade und als es ankam war mein erster Gedanke: wow, ist das leicht! Das Messer hat relativ einfach gehaltene Griffschalen und verzichtet bis auf den oberen Bereich auf Liner. Dadurch wird es extrem leicht. Die Klinge ist aus S30V, einem tollen Stahl, der die Schärfe lange hält und noch akzeptabel zu schärfen ist. Dazu hat er eine gute Korrosionsbeständigkeit. Die Klinge hat eine Droppoint-Form und ist etwas über 8cm lang. Sie ist fast komplett flach geschliffen und relativ spitz zulaufend. Dadurch eignet sie sich hervorragend für Arbeiten im Alltag und auf Ausflügen, wie Kartons/Briefe öffnen, Obst schälen/schneiden, mal etwas irgendwo "rausfriemeln". Auch im Haushalt, um z.B. kleinere Arbeiten an Kabeln etc. zu verrichten eignet es sich meiner Meinung nach auch sehr gut, da es sich damit sehr genau arbeiten lässt. Für kleinere Arbeiten im Garten würde ich es auch noch nutzen. Für alles Gröbere dann wäre es mir doch zu fragil. Durch den Axis-Lock hält die Klinge sicher und stabil, gleichzeitig kann man damit wunderbar "herumspielen". Auch für Linkshänder 100%ig geeignet. Für den (Büro-)Alltag, Ausflüge, normale Haushaltsarbeiten absolut empfehlenswert. Es ist mit nur 55Gr sensationell leicht. Ja, ist nicht gerade günstig, aber ich denke, das wird ein Messer, was bei angemessener Benutzung Jahrzehnte halten wird.

Very smooth folding action. Perfectly centered. Fantastic lockup. Rock solid. Absolutely zero up/down or side to side blade play. Great details with the blue anodized thumb studs, barrel spacers and black coated titanium axis lock bar. A minimalist steel liner design frame the axis lock mechanism. Phosphor bronze washers. Clever and small deep carry pocket clip with a wear resistant parkerized (vs painted) finish. Extremely slicey s30v premium blade steel grind. A beautiful swedge at the top of the blade aids is its piercing capabilities. Of course the hole vs the sum of its parts – a very well-engineered light weight carry. Regardless of weight, the knife still feels quite solid in the hand. Blue injection molded glass-filled nylon-based plastic polymer (Benchmade read: “Grivory”) handle scales offer a satisfying grip texture. Easily light and compact enough to serve as a backup blade option inside any bugout bag. However, still very well suited in most any EDC environment. The terms “high-speed and low-drag” come to mind. But in a good way… vs the mall ninja, car door batoning, z-hunter kind of way (node to The Shabazz). A high performance folding knife very much akin to a light weight high performance sports car. Ultimately a very highly recommended purchase. Probably the only knife that most will truly ever need on a day to day basis. If you’re considering the basic configuration Benchmade mini grip(s) or Spyderco Delica 4. Then you own it to yourself to at least strongly consider the Benchmade 535 Bugout. One of the very best in the entire Benchmade line up.
