I've always thought my Bugout was perfect for my EDC -- nice blade, light weight, compact -- but my mind told me it was "delicate" so I've been gentle with it. Thanks for taking a robust gamble on it! Quite impressive!
I agree.. I been carrying a bugout for a year and I do the same. The best thing about this knife for me is its light and the pocket clip is great. Otherwise I can't seem to like it and I've tried. I'm used to knives more robust like aluminum handles and thicker blade. I carried a buck 722 spitfire for 8 years and it was a workhorse with a aluminum handle and 420hc. The bugout is not a bad knife im just not used to a plastic handle and thinner blade
Steel flexibility/elasticity is always fascinating, swords will even have silicon added to help them bend 90 degrees without deformation or fracture. Watching steel bounce back is so weird! Sara continues to be a great co-host. Going through the grain with thin blades was always going to be rough, but still doable.
I had a buyout from you guys I hit a few years ago. It had Micarta scales. I loved it but had to sell it because I had unexpected medical issues come up. I wish I still had it.
Good lord have you tried the manix 2, para 2 or delica? Sorry I just can't do Benchmade anymore after discovering Spyderco. Sorry I genuinely am not trying to be rude. Just helpful
I have 2 Bugouts and I honestly love them both. I love that it disappears in my pocket. I've carried Cold Steel or Spyderco for years, but the Bugout has quickly taken over as my EDC.
Watching around 7:58 was just scary. George pulling his full force with the knife tip directed at his face and neck level. Its really easy to set an experiment up to do this safely. This just encourages people do to dumb stuff with their knives !
I actually used to say this myself! I even went as far as going to a huge knife store in another state to take a look at them in person.. there not at all better than the bugout . I will say many issues with the ones they had , I was holding a deka and real bad blade Pay.. way off center . And just didn’t feel good in the hand. Go with the OG BENCHMADE for the 30 dollars more if you want the real deal! I own 2 of the bugouts and the dekas are not better!
Well that means they need to budget cut on the rest of the component's like bearings. So it will never Be the same, and benchmade are now in the high end class.
I have the super freak on the farm and beat the hell out of it. Not an issue with it and the edge lasted all feeding season where a cheap blade lasts a couple weeks. Just sent it in to Benchmade for its first year checkup.
These tasks definitely aren’t easy if you don’t spend a lot of time outdoors doing them, I appreciate the effort these two put into the testing. Also glad to see how well the bugout held up. Anyone who is expecting a hard use tool out of the bugout is looking for a different knife, still cool to see that it could make it happen in a pinch.
I've had a Bugout for awhile now, it replaced a 10 year old cheap Kershaw that had been amazing. I carried the BO for awhile, but the grip did bother me some. And I didn't really want to lose Benchmade money. I've been checking out my knife along with your test, it's pretty cool. I'll work it back into rotation.
I just got the freak just like the one they have and it’s by far my favorite knife. I looked for it for weeks and blade hq either was always out or it was like 300$ so when I finally gave up on looking for it I walked into a new fun store one day and they had one marked under a different knife name by benchmade but brand new and it was like 180$ and I bought it before I even walked through the store. Beautiful handle, blade is shaving sharp, amazing knife! And my mini bugout is great as well!
I carry the bugout and the canyon hunter simultaniously as my edc's. I use my bugout for daily tasks, but my canyon hunter is my true GTF out of town knife.
I love my bugout but the first thing I changed was some flytanium titanium scales cause those plastic ones really don't inspire confidence. My go to for camping is still my Griptillian though and it doesn't care at all when I baton logs with it!
7.45 - 8.00, George do you realise what you are doing? Watch it again and just be glad you got home to your family that day.. Lets not do that again, okay.
Love my Freek, that thing’s my edc for a reason. My Bugout is nice, but it’s a little thin for my preferences. Not concerned about strength, the thin profile’s hard to keep my fingers out of the way when closing. Good for around the house
I have 4 3 full size blue and black and the ranger and 1 mini orange one like them but sometimes it feels to light but I only use the back one I recommend it to anyone who want a really light knife that can do anything for knife use
Great video!! 🎉 would love to see more “torture tests” like this (or like the prepareomatic) for the best sellers or other popular brands. This really helps show off the knife’s abilities!
The Bugout is the Greatest Folder Of All Time. I don’t care that it’s only been around 7 years. It’s slicier than it should be. It’s tougher than it should be, and it has the best blade to weigh ratio in the game. Excellent ergos. Carry form is incredible, it’s almost imperceptible in pocket. The aftermarket’s massive and allows you to make it completely your own. Benchmade doesn’t even take nearly as much advantage of it as they even could. Need sone more aluminum options from factory. Bonus, it’s a full size knife that doesn’t look imposing to use in public. I’ve got 9 of them.
Yeah! And you'd never want your car to have a crumple zone! Better to make it from sharp angles and thick stainless steel panelling. That's the safest! My name is wc4201 and I'm smert as herck, mama sez so
I would not but the FREEK again. I have one I have never carried or used and it RUST as M4 does. I coated it with oil and wax when i got it to protect it from moisture but it didn't help.
I really wanted to get a Benchmade freek but after buying a griptillian with a blade way off center and a noticeable uneven grind and emailing Benchmade and getting the response to open the blade and bend the handle to center the blade I won't be buying another benchmade
Mine is a first production run have carried and used it 5 out of 7 days a week for work camping hunting fishing, never had a broken spring or any issue
The BENCHMADE FLAG IS AWESOME!!!! I WANT A PROTECH ONE NOW AND A LEATHERMAN AND ZT /KERSHAW AND BUCK A ZIPPO ONE WOULD BE COOL I MEAN IMAGINE THE POSSIBILITIES!!!! A HUGE #DSKFS!!!!! THAT AWESOME
I WOULD LOVE TO SEE A FRAME LOCK VERSION OF THE MALIBU AND OR MORDAX!!!!!WOULDN'T THAT BE COOL!? STILL BE A BUTTON LOCK.... BUT ALSO MAKE IT A FRAME LOCK.....
I noticed all the editing when Sarah was struggling it. Fire and battoning. It’s good to see someone struggle a little so new knife people feel it’s ok to struggle when learning. I know this was about these two knives but why not kill two fords and show people how to do the basic boyscout knife work. “Blood Zone”
So you’re trying to break a light duty knife? I don’t get it. I’m a backpacker. I carry a mini Swiss Army knife, and the blade on it is more than I ever need. It also has scissors and a toothpick and tweezers, what a perfect tool! But sometimes I’ll really splurge and carry my mini bugout. At over an ounce and a half, it’s a bit heavy and it’s 3 inch blade is far more than a backpacker ever needs.
For the price of the bug out It should come with steel frame rails. Who says we want light? I want durable. This video was a joke for a durability test. Just my opinion.
Kalashnikov is a robust, heavy duty switchblade with full metal construction and simple, reliable parts. The other is a sharpened heap of milk-jug plastic that runs you three times the price.
i see all the comments about 7:45 but as long as you are using your body not your arm for the pulling its safe quit being a Nancy and also i think the rope was caught on the sharpening choil.
@@awdobsession717 did it on IG there bud, not here on UA-cam. but you’re right, not too many saw it. If only you’d have been there I would’ve gotten the validation I crave. Be good bud 🤙
Benchmade destroyed their own reputation when they decided to start chopping up guns. Don't give them a cent. Buy from companies like Spyderco, Cold Steel, Buck, etc.
I bought a mini Griptilian in D2 when they first came out. It was a nice knife and I'm a huge Mel Pardue fan but, damn that thing would grab inside my pocket so bad it was hard to pull it out. In the 3" range, the 705 was the best EDC Benchmade ever made. I gave several away as Christmas gifts and still have my Forum Knife in M2.
I don't know if you can break a Bugout, but the Bugout definitely ruined the knife world. Now everything is a 3 inch light weight toy. Thanks, Benchmade, like your prices weren't enough bad news.
Funny how they "ruined the knife world" yet here the knife world is several years after the Bugout was released and companies are still trying to mimic it and "dethrone" it.
@@stephenbarabas6286 And that's exactly how it ruined the knife world. Crappy, overpriced under weight, under sized, junk. It never had a throne it's the thing you put under the throne leg to make it level.
So what I learned was anything over $50 is over priced. I'd rather buy Chinese knock offs than pay $300 for a "american made" knife that was most likely made in the same factory 🤷🏼♂️
@@johnruiz6743sourced in China, made in China, assembled in China, packaged in USA with an sticker to prove it does not equal made in America. Don't be fooled 😂
@@wobblybruteThey are made in their factory in Portland, Oregon which the last I checked is in the USA. Exception: if it has titanium that is from another country but it was probably cut in the Portland factory. You can look around and find videos regarding their factory.
So many lies. No way the bugoit is the 2nd best selling knife we all know the bugout is horrible because all the keyboard warriors yell it at us in all the comments
Torture tests do not matter at all on any knife with omega springs. You could take it out of the box, flick it once and the springs may snap right there. Horrible design choice, built to fail at any random moment. Will never carry an axis or like wise locking knife outside of my property, and will never buy one again.

Got two BugOuts, a first production Ranger Green one and a first production Black CF Elite. Love em both, and they have covered all my knife needs.

Good job guys. I really like your test on the two knifes. Hope see more films like this one.
Guys just buy a Hogue Dekka, save about $20-30. You get better materials too.
Or any sliding bar lock knife from kizer for that matter.

Is there any reason Benchmade can’t use D2 on the Bugout and sell them for $50 bucks ? Then we could afford them 🇺🇸
Because the ones they currently make sell very well. One of the best selling knives of all time. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it…
@@holtonbower5626 I personally don’t like D2. 14c28n is way better IMHO.
The redoubt is D2 with similar construction and it's still overpriced.
Well that means they need to budget cut on the rest of the component's like bearings. So it will never Be the same, and benchmade are now in the high end class.
They would still sell for over $100. The redoubt is in D2 and it’s nearly 200
Awesome video, would love to see more like this rather than tabletop reviews. Just bought my 3rd bugout the other day

Would love to see the 940 do this

You should do a series of knives in other workplaces. Warehouse tasks, maker spaces, automotive garages, hell. Even artists studios.

Why is the griptillian your go to?
Is it thicker?
@@Dozaa. It's a pretty beefy blade stock and it's a fairly large knife in general, just feels better suited to more abuse

Cutting towards his neck like that. It could of been so bad. But he really isn't the smartest guy that works there.

“You almost want your knife to have some flex” 😂
I mean she's not wrong? Take an engineering class. Flex is a good thing, otherwise, your knife is more prone to shearing.
There's a reason swords were made of spring steel.

1 faulty bugout, sent back and replaced, replacement was better but on 3rd set of springs. Not that great.
If you don’t have tons of money Walmart made a cheap version that will get you by.
If you can ever find one in stock
The Bug Out is a nice knife. Good Quality but it's not worth $300.

No flex is not good. It's just an excuse for poor execution of the knife.
If you're not going to bend the knife close to 90 degrees after pounded it in, is it a complete test?
Mini adamas would be good to compare with the bugout. Similar in size, but not in bulk.
