Designed for the modern outdoor adventurer, the high-performance Benchmade Bugout 535 was crafted with the lightest, best quality materials while maintaining a slim, ergonomic form. At only 1.85oz (52.5g), this might be the lightest EDC you’ve ever had! The Bugout features a textured Benchmade blue grivory handle that feels as comfortable and grippy as G10. The plain-edged CPM-S30V blade is a beautifully ground drop-point finished in satin. It opens manually with the blue anododized dual thumb studs, and locks out with the Benchmade AXIS mechanism; offering a completely ambidextrous build. 

Every Benchmade knife is made in the USA, assembled by hand, and crafted to exacting standards.

The Bugout is also available with a serrated blade. 

We recommend keeping your Benchmade knives adjusted and finely tuned for smooth function using the Bluebox Maintenance Kit, BlueLube Knife Cleanser, and BlueLube Lubricant. 

IMPORTANT NOTICE! Due to CBSA restrictions (Customs Notice 18-01), Benchmade knives may have broken seals due to inspection at the Canadian border.
