533 Mini Bugout + new Bugout & Bailout

I found them. Type in a search engine Benchmade 533 and go to images ;) The orange one has a matching orange thumb stud as well. And the white one says dlc which is exciting.

I hope they dlc all their black blades. Their coating now has gotten better over the years, but it's certainly no dlc.

You are smarter than me. I literally was googling for it, but did not click on images. Good find!
 
I was thinking similar. I kind of wonder if they will run the M4 soft though. I sure hope not, it would kill the reason for having it. Might as well just raise the hardness on the 3V.

Specs are the M4 will be 62-64Rc. My concern is CeraKote over DLC?
 
Benchmade released a short clip on Instagram last evening promoting what was coming at Shot today. There was what appeared to be an orange Bugout and a white Bugout.

The orange and white Bugouts are minis according to BladeHQ. The white one looks like it is standard issue to Imperial Stormtroopers.

FYI, I talked with someone at Benchmade, and they said these two colorways are all that will be coming out for a while, unless they're making an exclusive colorway for a dealer, etc.

I suppose I'm (begrudgingly) getting the orange one – though I love the Stormtrooper comment above LOL.
 
I just preordered an orange mini 533 Bugout. I'm excited to try, but I'm also a huge fan of smaller knives and obviously the 535 Bugout. Wonder when these will start shipping? Any idea from last years SHOT show releases?
 
Benchmade does a good job with their M4.

For legal reasons I see how the Mini-Bugout makes sense. I would like a larger Bugout!

Agree. Nice knife to comply to laws, and a nice starter knife for a kid. Bugout is already small and weighs nothing. I don't see other benefits.
