Benchmade Mini Bugout 533-08 EDC Folding Knife, CPM-S30V Drop Point, Sage

The Benchmade Mini Bugout 533-08 is a compact, lightweight folding knife built for everyday carry and field use. Weighing just 1.51 ounces, it’s designed to go anywhere without adding bulk to your kit — whether you’re on a day hike, a multi-day backpacking trip, or running daily tasks that demand a reliable edge.

The blade is CPM-S30V stainless steel with a plain-edge drop-point profile, offering strong edge retention and solid corrosion resistance. The satin finish on this sage green variant keeps things low-profile. The handle is molded from glass-filled nylon (Grivory), providing a textured, ergonomic grip that holds up to hard use while keeping weight minimal.

The AXIS locking mechanism delivers a secure lock-up and allows for smooth, one-handed opening and closing. The design is fully ambidextrous, and the included reversible pocket clip gives you flexibility in how you carry it. A lanyard hole adds another option for securing the knife to your gear.

Benchmade’s LifeSharp program covers this knife for its lifetime — including free resharpening to factory edge, plus cleaning, oiling, and adjustments. The knife is manufactured at Benchmade’s facility in Oregon City, Oregon.
