Bulletproof and aesthetically pleasing Benchmade knives might capture your eye, but whether or not they represent a worthwhile investment depends on personal preference.
In the world of outdoor gear, having a reliable, high-quality knife can make all the difference. Benchmade, a renowned manufacturer, offers three exceptional folding knives: the Bugout, Barrage, and Osborne. Each knife is designed with practicality and durability in mind, making them ideal for everyday carry (EDC) and backpacking excursions.
Firstly, let's discuss the Bugout. This versatile folding knife stands out for its ambidextrous deployment, thanks to the thumb studs on both sides. The blade, made from CPM-S30V stainless steel, is renowned for its corrosion resistance and edge retention. The handle is crafted from Grivory, a lightweight, durable polymer, ensuring a comfortable grip. The Bugout also features a point-up carry and a pocket clip that can be fastened to either side of the handle, providing versatility in use.
Next, we have the Barrage knife. Known for its heavy-duty capabilities, the Barrage is an absolute workhorse. Its blade length measures 3.6 inches, and it weighs 4.45 ounces, with a closed length of 4.7 inches. The blade is locked into place with no play, and there's no wiggle side to side, ensuring stability during use. The Barrage, particularly the Redstone version, has been a staple since 2009.
Lastly, the Benchmade Osborne knife, with a blade length of 3.4 inches and a weight of 2.42 ounces, boasts a compact design. Its reverse tanto blade and double-action mechanism make it a unique addition to the Benchmade family. The Osborne's handle is textured and raised, providing a comfortable deployment, and it has a closed length of 4.47 inches.
Two other noteworthy knives from Benchmade are the Shootout, an automatic OTF knife, and the Benchmade Phaeton OTF knife. The Shootout deploys with just the slide of a button and has a slightly longer handle and blade compared to the Bugout. Its handle is textured and raised for comfortable deployment, and it requires a bit of force to deploy, reducing the risk of accidental firing. The Shootout retracts using the same button, making it easy to use and safe. The Benchmade Phaeton OTF knife, on the other hand, weighs 3 oz., making it lightweight and easy to carry.
Danny Perez, previously a buyer in an independent men's store in Houston, Texas, understands the importance of quality gear. These Benchmade knives, with their snappy assisted-open action and durable materials, are sure to impress even the most discerning outdoor enthusiasts. Whether you're tackling heavy-duty tasks or simply need a reliable knife for everyday use, Benchmade's Bugout, Barrage, Osborne, Shootout, and Phaeton OTF knives are worth considering.
