Really nice knife!
Color: Orange Grivory - Stonewash Finish
This knife is as light in the hand and easy to carry in the pocket as advertised. The blade was shaving sharp and the action was drop shut smooth with solid lock up right out of the box. I find flicking the knife open with my thumb to be very natural and needed zero break-in. The grivory (plastic) handle scales do have some flex. To me on a knife with a sub three inch blade that's not a big deal because the smaller size limits how much it flexes and because this isn't supposed to be a hard use knife. The handle is very slim but still comfortable with enough texture for a secure hold without being abrasive. It's just big enough for me to get a four finger grip. I wear a men's size large gloves, so those with big hands may find their pinky hanging off the end. The small pocket clip is my favorite style that Benchmade has and is very easy to get in and out of the pocket. Because the knife sits so deep in the pocket with this clip you get security knowing the knife won't come out and also a discrete appearance. I love buying American made products and am very happy to support Benchmade with all their knives made in Oregon. From a price standpoint Benchmade charges a premium even among American knife makers, so I can't call it a amazing value, but the price tag isn't so high that it's unreasonable. For a quality sub 3 inch bladed, lightweight, American made knife in my opinion this is the top of the heap.

Great knife, very happy with purchase and product!
Color: Black Carbon Fiber 3K Twill - Satin Finish
Another great purchase from Benchmade (I just need to quit losing them…). Love the size and weight, perfect for daily use at home and work. Super sharp, seems to be holding up extremely well, great grip and fold-out mechanism and weighs almost “nothing”.

A high quality 1 1/2 ounce knife with a just under 3" blade
Color: Orange Grivory - Stonewash Finish
I got this knife as a backup to my everyday working lock blade folding knives with four inch blades and bigger handles. There are a few jurisdictions in Oregon where lock blade knives must have blades under 3" to be carried in a pocket or otherwise concealed. In addition, if a group of strangers is around, and I need to cut something it would be nice to have something smaller and less scary looking. Since the knife is smaller than those I like to use, I wanted it to be as light as possible so I would be willing to carry it even though I had a bigger knife with me. This mini Bugout by Benchmadeis perfect. The blade opens and closes easier than any of my others. However, I cannot open or close it with one hand. My hand is too big for the tiny knife to be in the right orientation for that. No surprise. The blade is razor sharp. The knife seems to weigh nothing.

Excellent knife, great size, and holds edge
Color: White Grivory - Cerakote Finish
Excellent knife! Use it every day and carry it always. Lost my first one so bought a second, then found mine hanging on the garden fence. Must’ve hooked onto the fence as I was walking by and taken out of my pocket! Great size for me. I am 5 feet Tall and female. Constantly opening boxes and don’t have to go find scissors every time I wanna cut something. Don’t even notice it in my pocket. Knife holds a good edge and I just use a sharpening steel once in a while. Definitely recommend!

Had to buy again
Color: Orange Grivory - Stonewash Finish
Lost my last one. Was heartbroken. Had to buy the replacement. Nothing else feels right. Perfect little knife. Maybe a half serrated blade would be beyond perfect.

Good small knife, a bit pricey though.
Color: Orange Grivory - Stonewash Finish
It’s a small, but serious knife. Required a bit of work to make it perfect. There’s very-tiny bit of blade play (normal for benchmades) and blade was off-center folded. Proper alignment of the blade fixed both play and misalignment when folded. Just unscrew scale screws while putting pressure on the blade and screw back, don't touch axis bolt. Also required a bit of fidgeting/breaking in to get action smoother. Will probably install a back-spacer to get it a bit more rigid. Was not very sharp OOB, but took a wicked hair popping edge just fine. A bit overpriced, but still ok. It’s a US made, pretty knife that can be perfect if you put a bit of time into it.

The perfect knife
Color: Orange Grivory - Stonewash Finish
The perfect knife, so light and compact you have to look for it to remember you have it on you. The blade and scales are large enough for a grown man’s hand and small enough for a young teenager’s. It’s a Benchmade, the edge holds up under regular use, and sharpens better than factory edge. Love this knife.
