Benchmade 533BK-2 Mini Bugout folding knife - renowned American steel

The knife has a blade with a utilitarian Drop Point profile, made of CPM-S30V stainless steel hardened to 58-60 HRC. The 72 mm blade length is the optimal size and functionality for daily tasks. The CPM-S30V powder steel is characterized by its high hardness and resistance to damage, which ensures optimal sharpness for a long time.

The blade is covered with a DLC protective layer, which has a very high abrasion resistance and reduces steel wear.

Quick and convenient unfolding and reliable locking

The blade can be easily opened with one hand thanks to the double-sided pin, making it comfortable for both right- and left-handed users. The knife has several decorative elements, such as an orange anodized pin and polished spacers in the same color.

The blade lock is of course the Axis Lock, Benchmade's flagship mechanism, valued for its high load resistance, insensitivity to dirt and ease of use.

The second generation of the Bugout uses the advanced material CF-Elite for the scales. This nylon polymer is reinforced with carbon fiber, making the knife's handle 17% lighter and stiffer (compared to Grivoy).

Like the blade and other elements of the handle, it is kept in a discreet black color. The gently profiled handles with a non-slip texture ensure a very comfortable and stable grip.

The low profile of the linings and the small size when folded (10 mm) make the Mini Bugout so comfortable to carry around every day that you can forget it's in your pocket.

Pocket clip

The compact clip with an option to switch it (left/right) allows you to carry the knife in your pocket in a very discreet, inconspicuous way. There is also a hole in the handle for attaching a paracord cord or braid.

The Benchmade 533BK-2 Mini Bugout is a very light and handy EDC knife that will certainly conquer the compact folder market.
