Benchmade Bugout® Grivory® Folding Knife - Storm Gray

The Bugout is one of the most popular knives in the line-and one of the most pocketed blades in the EDC community. Originally designed and built for outdoor adventurers who demand durability in a light, ergonomic, barely-there package, it's exactly what you'd want for the daily grind, too. It comes in a CPM-S30V drop-point blade to make maintenance a breeze. The Storm Gray Grivory handle and gray Cerakote blade evoke the billowing clouds of a raging tempest.

• Made in USA

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

• CPM-S30V Stainless Steel (58-60HRC): First-of-it's-kind steel designed specifically for use in knife blades. An excellent balance of edge retention, corrosion resistance and durability for a variety of applications

• Grivory: Glass-filled thermoplastic composite known for being extremely light and durable. Widely used for automotive, industrial and aerospace applications

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

Designed with purpose and built to last, the Bugout sets a high bar for durability and performance matched only by the promise that it will be yours, for life.

Laser-cut from sheets of high-grade steel, every Benchmade blade is ground, beveled and finished with uncompromising precision. Mill and machine handles in-house to the most exacting specifications and every knife is hand-assembled and sharpened by highly trained technicians bringing to bear over thirty years of manufacturing excellence in the state-of-the-art factory in Oregon City, Oregon.

Proper care and regular maintenance help make your Benchmade knife yours, for life. Here are some tips for keeping your Benchmade in peak condition.

• All steel, regardless of price and grade, can eventually rust, so it’s important to keep your knife dry and lubricated. If spotting or rust occurs, semi-chrome metal polish will often take care of it
• Dishwashers can cause serious damage that is not covered under the warranty, so make sure to hand-wash your Benchmade under warm water with dish soap only and dry thoroughly
• Remember, knives are cutting tools and you should never use your knife as a pry-bar, screwdriver, chisel or punch, unless the knife is designed explicitly for those purposes
• If you choose to sharpen your blade yourself, avoid grinding wheels and other high-powered machinery
• Handle, pivot and pocket clip screws may require occasional adjustment using T6 & T10 Torx drivers. Recommend applying a small dab of releasable thread-locker as needed
