Benchmade Mini Bugout Orange - Model 533 Folding Knife
Benchmade Mini Bugout Orange - Model 533 Folding Knife
The Benchmade Mini Bugout is a smaller version of the popular Benchmade Bugout knife. It features a 2.82-inch blade made of high-quality stainless steel. The Mini Bugout is a versatile and reliable folding knife that is perfect for everyday carry, camping, hunting and other outdoor activities. It's a great option for those looking for a smaller, more compact version of the Bugout. Its blade length is 2.82 inches, handle thickness is 0.42 inches, blade thickness is 0.09 inches and overall length is 6.49 inches. It's also lightweight at 1.5 oz.
The American-made CPM-S30V tool steel blade has both the hardness and toughness you have come to rely on from the Bugout. With an HRC of 58-60 it resists marring, dings, and scratches as well as keeping a razor-sharp edge for cut after cut right out of the box. The 2.82" drop point blade is a satin stonewashed finished and opens out to an overall length of 6.49". The AXIS lock works just like the larger varieties and keeps the blade exactly where you need it when opened. The blade swings out into place from the 3.704" rescue orange grivory handle with help from the ambidextrous thumb studs on the blade. The black coated pocket clip is adjustable for right or left-handed, tip-up carry, and a lanyard hole in the handle gives you other carry options as well. At 1.5 oz. light, you will hardly notice this knife is by your side until the moment you need it during EDC.
As with all Benchmade knives the Mini Bugout is proudly made in the USA and features a lifetime guarantee against craftsmanship and materials. Also, you have the option of sending your Mini Bugout 533 to Benchmade whenever it needs sharpening. As an authorized dealer of Benchmade, Knifeart.com offers fast, free shipping in the USA and features a satisfaction guarantee. If for any reason you aren't pleased with your purchase, simply return the knife for a refund.
Product Reviews
For me, this is the perfect EDC for in town. Not too big, not too scary, razor sharp, and does almost all things that a small EDC needs to be able to do. I initially did not like the orange color (not a big fan of orange) but this knife is almost impossible to misplace. Add the lightness of the bugout family and you have a knife that will disappear in your pocket. I often check to make sure that it is still there. If I am in the mountains, I usually carry a Puukko or a larger folder such as a full sized Bugout.
