    • The perfect gift knife.
Color: Graphite Black CF-Elite - Cerakote Finish
I bought this knife as a gift for someone not into knives but who I read as someone who might get into knives with some pushing. They appreciated it! I replace the scales it comes with with titanium scales. Frankly, I don't really see the point of the CF-Elite scales. They are still plastic (not true carbon fiber), and plastic is plastic, who cares what kind? The plastic scales give this relatively expensive knife a cheaper feel so I definitely recommend metal scales of some sort. Other than that, this is a perfectly designed knife. The blade is thin and very good at slicing. The axis lock is fun and with a little practice very easy to open and close the knife with one handed. The centering was perfect out of the box and after disassembling and reassembling it was still perfect. The pivot is buttery smooth with the bronze phosphor washers after I applied some knife pivot lube. People say the springs wear out but frankly I have not experienced that myself. Other than the scales, the only real downside is probably the price. ... show more

    • One of my favorite EDCs
Color: Graphite Black CF-Elite - Cerakote Finish
It's lightweight and well-made. My last one was stolen (along with a number of other things) when my truck was stolen from the DIA parking garage. This is one of the first things I replaced afterwards.

    • Lightweight and thin!
Color: Crater Blue Grivory - Cerakote Finish
Perfect every day carry knife. Very light and thin, hardly notice it clipped in my pocket. Despite the name I wouldn’t recommend this as a survival knife, as these is some flex in the handle and the grip is just ok. For just normal use it’s perfect.

    • OK knife but didn't compare to my Benchmade Super Freek
Color: Graphite Black CF-Elite - Cerakote Finish
I purchased the Bugout after hearing about the new updated handle. I'm all for a stronger handle and thought I'd give it a shot. I've carried a Super Freek 560 for two years now as my EDC and planned to replace it with the lighter Bugout. After receiving the Bugout I did a sort of non official comparison of the two. I put them in my pocket and jogged around the house to check the weight/feel. Sliced an apple with both knives, tried the handle in different positions, open close mechanism... I was really trying to find a reason to use the Bugout because it is such a cool little knife but I couldn't justify keeping it. It just seemed "cheap" in my hand compared to the Freek. It is lighter by 2.5 oz but I really couldn't notice a difference in my pocket between the two. The Freek sliced an apple the same or better because of the larger more ergonomic handle. For heavy use the Freek would be much more durable. I thought to myself why would I use the bugout if I can have a knife more rugged without much if any downside. In almost all cases I would take the freek over the bugout, even with my gym shorts. For that reason I returned the bugout and purchased another Freek. ... show more
