Benchmade Mini Bugout 533-3 Folding Knife 2.82" S90V Carbon Fiber
The result of overwhelming feedback, the Bugout has been scaled down in the form of the 533 Mini Bugout. Available in two different colorways, and now a carbon fiber version the Mini Bugout maintains the same configuration as its full-sized counterparts in a mere 1.5-ounce package. With a closed length of 3.7", this ultralight folder is small enough for a mint tin, yet big enough for real-life adventure.
Please note: While the blade pictures show a first production, you get a new 533-3 knife that is new and mass produced and therefore may not be a first production. We're currently only allocated one first production and when that goes, we'll send out the normal 533-3's.
