I bought the original issue of the CF Rouge Blade Works Bugout (knife with scales complete) when they first came out. I purchased a couple more and added Rockscale Design titanium scales. Not much of a Benchmade guy, But the Bugout is a stellar knife. Thanks for video
Rouge and Rockscale make some seriously amazing stuff. I'm hoping to get some of those Ti scales and do a full stain build with my custom bugout someday. Thanks for the comment!
The backspacer with lanyard completes the build. New to knives and newer to Benchmade. But I’m a 940 guy. It’s topping the list. 940og and 945bk-1 and will be doubling up with the 940-2 and 945( aluminium). These will be my only doubles
I have a knifecenter exclusive,blacked out,with red highlights...very goodlooking,action is perfect,but I never carry it,just prefer my pardue,like the blade shape on the pardue
Just so you know you actually can put s90v and carbon fiber on your bugout in the customization section now. I know you couldn’t at the time of this video being made but I’m just saying. Also you can do dama steel blades now and titanium scales
Thanks for the comment! Yes I've only just recently seen they included a bunch of new premium materials. I think the cost is still pretty high for those custom shop models though...
I dig the idea of an aluminum / M390 Bugout, but why maroon studs? Easy enough to fix, just weird. Benchmade has a real knack for making a great knife and then fucking it up right at the end.
Yeah man I get it. That color choice is definitely going to alienate a lot of potential buyers. They should honestly just stick to more standard stuff and let people customize with crazy aftermarket colors if they so choose. Thanks for the comment!
@@Icy_Knife_Reviews The good news is the Bugout is on the custom builder now. Thinking about building a plain Jane titanium model with plain Ti screws. Appreciate your videos man. Keep up the good work. 👍🏻
the grivery (is that what it's called?)is crap !that is what it should be listed as from benchmade and then the greeedy butterfly price for the crap handled 535 ! they should be ashamed and refund everyone they ripped off with the crap handled knife and send them a free 535-3 ! I only collect the clones of stupid high priced for no real reason but greed knives ( I have a few so called real ones ,the clones are just as good and the steel is a liehype ,I priced the steel and ,$20.00 ,not $200.00 ) ! $40.00 -$50.00 ( a little higher for so called American made ) that is a good price for the 553=3 already ordered the 533-3 same price ! already have 945 gold class it is a cool little knife ( $50.00 cool not $700.00 cool )! benchmade uses Chinese cnc machines ,those payment must be very, very high to justify their butterfly greed price ! most all production knives are Chinese cnc machine made even in America ( load the blank ,-unload the part, assemble ,ship ,the designer drew it on a computer ) ,the money is going to China ( even though you could build a cnc machine with a cnc machine ) so I'll take the none rip off price ( I don't sell or trade ,I gift a lot of them ) !!! oh American worker won't get the money ,benchmade is in anti American ccp oregon ( half the state wants to be Idaho ) and they are paying the ccp for the cnc machine ,and tell me it isn't minimum wage ,while the government causes crisis to destroy the economy so minimum wage is nothing and turn oregon into the ccp !

Great review I’m bought mine couple days ago watching these videos really help with decision bug out is the best edc for me
Hey glad to hear the information is useful! Thanks for watching 🤙
I have had mine about a month and it has not left my pocket either. Great video.
Thanks a lot! It's a beautiful knife.
Love the blade steel upgrade. Worth considering for sure. Great video 👍
Thanks a lot 😁. Yeah considering just the materials based off of the base model, it's actually a pretty sweet deal

Absolutely, the blue backspacer is one of my favorite parts. Welcome to the knife world! I love the 940 as well, fantastic platform.
Great video! I recently got my SMKW M4 G10 Bugout and love it 👍
Thank you much! That M4 exclusive is a very exciting one too 🤙
@@Icy_Knife_Reviews yeah it is amazing, I’ll be posting more videos on it soon!
This in a mini would be perfect for me 👍🏻
Agreed, the bugout mini is definitely something we need more options for soon!
It now exists:)
I have a knifecenter exclusive,blacked out,with red highlights...very goodlooking,action is perfect,but I never carry it,just prefer my pardue,like the blade shape on the pardue
Very nice!
Care to sell it?
As far as regular carbon fiber I think benchmade factory has some of the best looking and feeling In the game
I think you're right! Certainly top notch.
