Benchmade Bugout® Axis Lock Folding Knife - Aluminum Black

This is the Bugout redefined - 33% thinner and longer cycle life than a standard Bugout. Built on a black aluminum chassis with a Taiga Green backspacer and matching thumb stud, it features a premium Magnacut drop-point blade finished in stealthy black Cerakote. Lightweight, low-profile and high-performance - everything the Bugout was meant to be, pushed even further.

Drop-Point: Drops off the spine to the tip. Tip height is typically below the center line on the blade.

MagnaCut Stainless Steel (60-62 HRC): A new approach to stainless tool steel that eliminates chromium carbides from the microstructure. The result: a combination of properties with similar toughness and edge retention to non-stainless steels like CPM-CruWear and CPM-4V, with the addition of excellent corrosion resistance and strength.

6061-T6 Anodized Aluminum: Exceptionally tough, yet lightweight. Aluminum can be anodized in many colors and milled with fine detail. It also naturally resists corrosion.

Manual: Manually opened knives must be opened 100% from the closed position to the open position by the user.
