Great knife, I enjoyed it for 3 years and unfortunately the springs broke. You don't feel it in your pocket, but now it sits in a drawer. I don't recommend it for long-term use.

A robust yet lightweight folding knife crafted for everyday carry (EDC), perfect for both domestic chores and outdoor use.
Featuring a Drop Point blade made from premium stainless steel S90V produced via powder metallurgy, the blade is hardened to 59-61 HRC. High corrosion resistance, excellent edge retention, ease of sharpening, and superior resistance to chipping are its hallmarks. The blade sports a satin finish, providing a semi-matte look and minimizing unwanted glare.
Handle scales are constructed from high-strength carbon fiber with a textured surface, delivering a secure grip during use. A generously sized hole at the end of the ergonomically shaped handle allows for attaching a lanyard or keychain. Blade deployment is facilitated by a dual thumb stud.
The Axis Lock sliding mechanism, renowned for its strength and resistance to heavy-duty use, reliably prevents the blade from closing or accidentally opening while being carried.
A springy mini deep-carry clip attached to the handle ensures comfortable everyday portability, letting you easily secure the knife to a belt or pocket. The clip is reversible for tip-up carry, making it suitable for both right- and left-handed users.

Plastic is not all the same, these are definitely the best plastic handles you can get on a Bugout, indeed stiffer and less flexible than the standard ones. The Bugout itself is great as always, and this all-black version looks awesome.

One of the best-made "Bogusi" I have ever had in my hands. Compared to the classic ones with plastic handles, this one really feels premium; the stiffness of the handles makes the knife feel different from a standard Bugout. I recommend it to every Bugout fan.
-
In person, it is smaller than in the photos – the model is very compact, which makes it phenomenally easy to carry and use. I prefer the variants that don't have a composite handle, however, every one of them is worth recommending.

Great knife. Other Bugouts with plastic handles seem too delicate. This one is made of aluminum and is fine. The ideal EDC knife, lightweight, unobtrusive, with a small and barely visible clip. You don't feel it in your pocket.
-
The knife is very light. Despite its small size, it has a good, secure grip. It does not slip in gloves. The handle color is lighter than in the photos. Perfect for everyday carry. I definitely recommend it.

If you care about a small and lightweight knife for everyday carry, it's hard to find a better choice. A great little one, and in this color version it looks fantastic. The white scale sometimes gets dirty and requires a bit more frequent cleaning, which you should keep in mind when choosing.
-
Great knife, brilliant steel. The deep carry clip is definitely a plus. You hardly feel it in your pocket. I highly recommend it, another successful purchase.

The knife comes nicely packaged and very sharp. The handle is more durable than it seems and the blade stays sharp for a long time. The price is high and probably a bit exaggerated. The knife is perfect for EDC. It is very lightweight and unnoticeable in the pocket. The lock works well. It's worth keeping it in the included case. After a walk on the beach, I spent a long time getting the sand out of the mechanism, and I didn't have a small enough tool to take it apart.
-
Incredibly lightweight and handy knife. The mechanics and operation are very smooth. Good steel and top-notch craftsmanship. Great for everyday carry. I recommend it.
-
Great design in the premium version, made from better materials. Excellent steel, very nice milled aluminum handle scales. This version both looks and works great! I recommend it.

A classic example of minimalist EDC. The handle is improved compared to the previous one with Grivory and the blade is made from one of the first powder super steels. Light as a feather. I recommend it to those who are undecided.
-
A great little knife for everyday carry. Excellently made. The steel used in the blade is extremely good quality. I highly recommend everyone to buy one, because it is definitely worth it.

A brilliant knife for everyday carry, so-called EDC. Great lock, extremely lightweight construction. I highly recommend it to everyone because it is definitely worth buying.
