Inspired by the earthy, vintage aesthetics of classic basecamp gear — the Benchmade 533SL-10 Mini Bugout is the seasonal upgrade that takes the world's most beloved compact EDC folder and elevates it with premium materials, a distinctive colorway, and the kind of thoughtful detailing that makes this variant genuinely collectible. If the standard Mini Bugout is the knife you carry, the 533SL-10 is the one you'll treasure.

The Mini Bugout has earned its reputation as the ultimate compact everyday carry by delivering the same ultralight performance and premium Benchmade quality as the legendary full-size Bugout in a smaller, more pocketable package. The 533SL-10 builds on that foundation with meaningful upgrades. The 2.82" drop-point blade steps up to CPM-S90V super steel (59-61 HRC) — one of the highest-performing blade steels available, delivering superior edge retention, wear resistance, and corrosion resistance that significantly outpaces the standard Grivory-handled Bugout's S30V. The Crushed Silver Cerakote finish gives the blade a distinctive, shimmering look that catches the light beautifully while adding exceptional durability and corrosion resistance. Dual ambidextrous thumb studs in gold anodized titanium with bronze washers at the pivot provide smooth, fast one-handed deployment that feels as premium as the knife looks.

The woodland green anodized 6061-T6 aluminum handle scales are the heart of this knife's identity — an earthy, vintage-inspired hue drawn from classic camping cookware and basecamp gear that gives this Mini Bugout a warmth and character all its own. Gold anodized barrel spacers echo the thumb stud accents for a cohesive, considered aesthetic. The slim, ergonomic handle maintains the Mini Bugout's signature four-finger grip and ultralight carry at just 2.0 oz. A reversible deep-carry black oxide pocket clip keeps it riding low and discreet whether you prefer left or right pocket. Proudly made in the USA and backed by Benchmade's LifeSharp lifetime sharpening service.
