At its core, this knife features a 3.23-inch drop point blade crafted from premium CPM S30V stainless steel. Known for its excellent edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness, this high-performance steel ensures you get a blade that stays sharp and dependable through repeated use. Finished with a rugged Desert Verde Cerakote coating, the blade resists wear and adds a tactical, low-profile look. Whether you’re slicing rope, prepping food, or handling precision cutting, this blade is designed to deliver smooth, consistent performance.
Opening the Bugout is quick and effortless, thanks to the ambidextrous thumb studs that allow for smooth, one-handed deployment. Once open, the knife locks up securely with Benchmade’s AXIS lock, a trusted mechanism known for its strength, reliability, and ease of use. Fully ambidextrous, the AXIS lock ensures that both right- and left-handed users get a seamless experience.
The Deep Olive Grivory handle not only looks great but also provides a strong, lightweight frame that’s comfortable in hand. Made from durable, fiber-reinforced polymer, the handle offers a secure grip while keeping the knife’s weight to an impressively light 1.8 ounces. Its ergonomic design allows for extended use without discomfort, making it ideal for both everyday tasks and more demanding cutting jobs.
Designed with portability in mind, the Bugout Deep Olive features a tip-up pocket clip for discreet, secure carry. The addition of a lanyard hole gives you even more carrying options, ensuring the knife is always within reach when you need it.
