Announcing the NEW 535GRY-1 Bugout

Jrunr619 · May 4, 2018

I can’t wait to get one of these!

Really glad to have some different options for Bugouts. Thanks Benchmade!

Can't wait for the dealer I pre-ordered from to get these in stock. I'm dying here. Same for the blue DLC Proper.

I got mine today. Freaking amazing knife. This is the first Bugout I've owned. This knife is killer. I can only imagine all the different variations that this thing could be made in. I feel it will sell extremely well in whatever flavor they make. Great knife. Love how thin it is. It is slicey as heck.

Have some pics.

Great pics !!!!

Thanks for posting !

If it were not for #422 I posted earlier about ... I’m really liking the clean blade without the FPR #’s

Thank you.

Yeah, I'm with ya. I usually get FPR's when I get a fairly new BM. I'm OK with it because sometimes I just think it's neat that no other knife has the same number. This is a nice change however with the clean backside of the blade.

Looking good

Fred Sanford

I got a non-FPR too.

Thanks for the real life pics guys :thumbsup:

Sealed the deal for me, I'm in on this one!

Fred Sanford · May 5, 2018

Yeah, I’m glad that the tan anodized stuff is not gold. It is a nice tan color and it think it’s just right. The stock photos make it look more gold IMO.

Agreed. I have no issues with any of the design of the knife. While I would have been perfectly fine with an uncoated blade I don't mind the coating on this one. It's a nice little package for sure!

Imagine the feeding frenzy if these were sub $100! I love mine, and I’m looking forward to getting the green/black version.

These look so good! I’d love to see one on carbon shred scales.

BMCGear · May 6, 2018

I did a little knife surgery and swapped the pivot around.

We’re opposites lol. You have the bright color Jeep and the subdued color Bugout. I have the subdued color Jeep (Rhino) and bright colored Bugout (blue).

That’s actually my wifes; unlimited Sahara wrangler x or something like that; all I know is it’s loaded.
I did get her this soon after she bought it.

The good thing about the dealer I pre-ordered from being still on backorder is I probably won't get FPR# on it. I hate that. The more recent BM FPR# looks way better than previous/other makers but I still prefer to not have it.

If you wanna cancel that and get a non FPR sent your way tomorrow, let me know.
