Benchmade Bugout – M390 DLC Folding Knife – Pre-Owned – With Box
The Benchmade Bugout is one of the most popular everyday carry folding knives in Benchmade's lineup, combining lightweight construction, premium materials, and outstanding cutting performance. Originally designed as a lightweight outdoor cutting tool, the Bugout has become a favorite among everyday carry enthusiasts thanks to its slim profile, comfortable ergonomics, and practical versatility.
This particular pre-owned Benchmade Bugout features premium CPM-M390 stainless steel with a black DLC-coated blade, offering an excellent combination of edge retention, corrosion resistance, and durability. M390 is a high-performance powder metallurgy stainless steel known for its excellent wear resistance and ability to maintain a sharp cutting edge through extended use.
The approximately 3.24-inch drop-point blade provides a versatile cutting profile suitable for a wide range of everyday tasks. Its practical geometry offers excellent control for opening packages, breaking down cardboard, cutting cordage, preparing materials around camp, and handling general utility work.
The blade features a sleek Black DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon) finish, giving the Bugout a bold, understated appearance. DLC coatings are valued for their hardness and wear-resistant properties, while the dark finish creates a distinctive tactical-inspired look.
One of the defining characteristics of the Bugout is its lightweight, streamlined construction. Its slim handle profile and compact folding design make it comfortable to carry throughout the day without unnecessary bulk. Despite its lightweight design, the Bugout provides a practical grip and excellent cutting capability.
The knife also features Benchmade's renowned AXIS Lock mechanism, providing secure blade lockup and smooth, ambidextrous operation. The dual-thumb-stud opening system allows convenient manual deployment, while the AXIS Lock provides a familiar and dependable locking design appreciated by knife enthusiasts.
Proudly made in the USA, the Benchmade Bugout reflects the company's commitment to precision manufacturing, premium materials, and innovative knife design. Its combination of high-performance blade steel, lightweight construction, and practical functionality makes it an excellent option for everyday users and collectors alike.
This particular knife is being offered pre-owned and includes its box. As a previously owned knife, it may exhibit signs of handling, carry, sharpening, or use.
