  • Man, this is a good knife
For comparison, I have the Northfork(wood), regular griptilian, 940-2, bug out, and series of other knives including several spydercos including the paramilitary 2 and karahawk. I initially liked the quality of the spydercos and they were among my first higher quality knives that I owned. I was always under the impression that spydercos were top of the line, but then I decided to try the grip full sized. Then I went nuts and got the 940, then the bug out, then the mini grip. These knives hold an edge longer than other knives by far of the same steel. Not only that, the axis lock > any other locking mechanism hands down. The blade shapes imho are more practical and universal. After owning the north fork and mini, I didn't think I needed a bug out but this is a solid knife. Slightly longer than a mini grip and north fork but slightly shorter than a 940. Thinner and much lighter than all the knives I have in my collection. It is a solid knife to add to the rotation so much that all of my spydercos except the pm2 are being phased out. Comparably, the manix is the next best thing within this size but I much prefer the ergos of benchmades, this blade shape, and the quality of heat treat to this metal over all. Honestly, I was concerned from reviews about the scales and the pocket clip. It's true the scales feel cheap but they're solid. I don't believe it'll break at all. I wouldn't use this as a survival or bush knife but edc or slicing, it's perfect and extremely effective. The pocket clip is great, love the size and how much less evasive it looks than a full sized pocket clip. I don't understand what the complaints about the pocket clip is about as I have no issues sliding the clip into my pants easily without needing to fiddle with it, even when I got it brand new and hadn't broken it in yet. My favorites in order 1. 940 2. Grip 3. Bug out, north fork, and mini grip (can't decide) (I love the light Bug out and the clip but the scales feel cheap even though they're pretty sturdy but the other knives are thicker and better suited for piercing and heavier duty, therefore pros and cons depending on what you need it for) 4. Pm2 5. Karahawk I am typically very brand neutral, but I've been won over from spydercos hands down. I just need bm to come out with a knife that rivals the karahawk. 100% recommend the bug out. I have the original blue. I'm looking at a adamas to complete my collection ... show more

  • A rose by any other name..
Bugout? No. I would call it the Benchmade "lakeside". This knife is perfect for work, the gym, summertime lounging and light recreational activities. Finally, the perfect EDC for what I actually use a pocket knife for 99.9% of the time. Q: Is it good for batoning in a pinch? Like my Griptillian was that weekend in Escalante when I got lost. A: Probably not. But that only accounts for 00.1% of the time you need an EDC knife and that seems fairly random. Q: Will blade stay place? A: Yes. Blade will definitely stay place.. it's a Benchmade. Q:What is this knife any good for if it can't even baton in a pinch? A: I'm not sure what "baton in a pinch" means, but this knife is perfect for: *Summertime in hot climates. *Jogging. *Warehouse work. *Women who wear tight or very little clothing but still want to carry a competent, high quality knife. *Men who do the same. *Cleaning dirt out of your fingernails. *Cutting an apple. *(not in that order). *Opening a beer bottle. *Loose threads on clothes. *Trimming back that overgrown thing in your garden that you're not sure if you planted or it's a weed. *Ect, ect. I've carried a Benchmade Griptillian on me every day for the last ten years. It's the best! It's a workhorse. It's also a little too heavy and wide to tuck into the waistband of jogging shorts or swim trunks comfortably. The Bugout does this perfectly, with the same Benchmade quality and reliability at half the weight. It's a stunning little knife. The price seems a little steep until you use it for what it's actually made for, despite the name (who cares). When I don't want to tote around my Griptillian it fills in perfectly. This knife is beautiful. Go hit the beach or the office with it. ... show more

  • Great pocket knife
This is the 3rd time my husband has ordered this knife! Unfortunately, he lost the first 2. 😳 Regardless, there is a reason he keeps reordering the same knife. It is really sharp, well weighted - not too heavy/not too light, and well made. He likes that he can open it with the snap of his wrist. It is so handy. I can’t believe how many times I ask him if I can borrow his knife. So useful!!! ... show more

  • Great knife
The media could not be loaded. I was worried I'd be buying a bootleg, but thankfully it's a legit Benchmade product. It's my third Bugout i've added to the collection and I have to say it's my favorite. Light weight, vibrant color, durable construction, and great action. The blade has solid lockup and the drops shut nicely. Very fidgety, I can't keep my hands off of it. My only complaint is the factory edge wasn't that good, so far the only Benchmade I've had with a subpar edge, it struglled to cut the packaging it came in. This knife was very easy to sharpen though, and accepted a nice 600 grit, 20° PS toothy edge with no hassle. Nice and slicey now. 9.5 outa 10 (That factory edge) ... show more
