Benchmade, a very well-known US-based knife manufacturer, offers a huge number of products that all make for a great pocketknife. From fixed blades, to automatics, to their signature AXIS-lock manuals, Benchmade’s growing list of options continues to impress. Us at SRKT agree that Benchmade offers one of the largest number of solid everyday carry pocket knives. If you find yourself using your blade multiple times throughout the day, and don’t have a Benchmade yet, you should certainly try one out, as they make a model for everybody.

Released in 2017, the Bugout has made waves in the everday carry pocket knife industry. When released, the knife community was shocked by the mixture of tacticallity, simplicity, and weightlessness behind the Bugout. Many knives have hit the market trying to model the classic Bugout by the US-based company, but the Bugout remains near the top of the Mount Rushmore of EDC knives. Incredibly lightweight, but featuring high-grade materials to get nearly any job done, the Bugout is a knife everybody should own. If you don’t already, the Benchmade Bugout comes in a large number of handle/blade color combos and materials.

This upgraded new Bugout VAPYR the 534BK model comes with a finely milled black 6061-T6 aircraft aluminum handle, giving it a slip resistant feel and an incredible look. The black cerakote plain edge MagnaCut blade is in a class all by itself. The thumb studs and backspacer are finished Tiaga Green, while the hardware and pocket clip are all black coated. These look amazing and are up to the task just as much as any other Bugout model. USA made.
