Benchmade Mini Bugout 533BK-1 Carbon Fiber

From StormTrooper to Darth Vader
7 C’s: my Criteria
All C’s result in my final Conclusion to Purchase or Pass
Comparison: A compliment to my collection in form and/or function? Like a light weight EDC or a rainy season corrosion resistant knife, ...
Cost: Can I justify it? Value(Service/Warranty)/Quality/build for the money. Durability over time - like my Tag Heuer watch
Coolness: Will it bring me joy every time? (Like my leather coat, or a sports car)
Customizable: Is it already, or can it be customized to get close to perfection? Variations of the model, … Yeah, I’m very picky!
Cut: The blade. Steel, Style, ...
Carry/EDC: In the pocket. Pocket clip a shredder? Does it bring me joy to hold and carry? Left or right handed open. Hot spots? Weight, balance, ...
Conclusion: Purchase or Pass?

This video I did might help “Benchmade remorse! Tips & Tricks to Joy!” Also try to put your thumb nail behind the thumb stud rather than on top of it and flick your thumb out and up while flicking your wrist to give it some momentum. Hope this helps! Stay well!
