Benchmade Mini Bugout 533-04 - Matte Satin CPM S30V Drop Point Blade & Mesa Red Grivory Handle Scales w/ Stainless Reversible Tip-Up Mini Deep-Carry Pocket Clip & Black Hardware - AXIS Bar Lock Manual Folder w/ 2.82" Blade & Dual Thumb Studs | Made in USA

The Benchmade Bugout is one of the most popular knives in the world and continues to be one of our highest selling models here @ SRKT. The Mini Bugout is of course its smaller and younger brother, coming in a more pocket friendly/bit-sized package. Incredibly thin and lightweight, the Mini Bugout make for the ideal everyday carry pocket knife, being very one-hand user friendly due to its AXIS bar lock and ambidextrous dual thumb studs. It takes less than a moment to get these guys from clipped to your pocket to opened and ready-to-use. You may never find a need for your non-dominant hand again, because the Mini Bugout opens and closes smoothly enough for a flick open and a fling closed. The handles may seem a bit delicate at first, but rest assured that Benchmades grivory handle scales are extremely durable and ready for hard-use. Coming with a standard drop point blade, you can use the Mini Bugout for slicing, piercing, scoring, and everything in between. With an open-backed design, its super easy to clean your knife after a session of outdoor use. Equipped with a reversible deep-carry pocket clip and given a sizeable lanyard hole, they can be carried in a multitude of ways, making these guys the knife for everyone. If you don't own one of these yet, what are you up to?

For 2023, Benchmade has decided to give the Mini Bugout a bit of extra life, releasing three new blade/scale color combinations. This model here, 533-08, comes with an awesome orange-ish Mesa Red dyed grivory handle. The satin finished blade is made of CPM S30V steel while the hardware is black and the pocket clip is a stainless finish.
