How to spot a Benchmade Bugout Clone !!!

[@thealarmclock9307]

The bugout is now 180-190 bucks on ebay... That's rediculous. And the constant price gouging by Benchmade creates the market for the clones.... I love Benchmade. But my Bushcrafter 162 , was 180 bucks.. there is nothing about that bugout worth 2 Benjamins.. it's a 120-130 dollar knife at the most... So it's hard for me to have any pity for Benchmade.

[@liam5498]

Ok hear me out, i bought a clone so i could get a feel of whether i like the shape or not. i do plan on buying the bugout i just do not want to spend$200 on something i could potentially not like

[@BladeStuff]

Thank you for your comment. I realize that there are many people out there that do this. Respectfully, I just cannot embrace this method for myself. Thats just me and my opinion. I appreciate you watching the video and I appreciate your comment as well. I hope you enjoy your Bugout when you get one.

[@liam5498]

@@BladeStuff Update: The video was great and i bought a real bugout i do really like the series of knife. something that could be worth mentioning in a future comparison is the quality some things i noticed when comparing my fake to the real if that the fake has a lot of flex in the middle of the scales to the point were you can touch to two sides. another thing is the coating on the screws used although my fake has the exact same screw sizes the ano/coating on the fake screws wore pretty quickly showing the metal underneath. The fact that fakes are getting this good is pretty alarming for true businesses which is quite sad to see another thing was all the internal components matched up to the millimetre and looked identical besides the fake washers had a more matte finish to them.

I bought a couple of the $40 ones and am satisfied . I even whacked the heck out of the steel on wood to try and roll the edge to check the hardness and it passes.

[@MANNT1S]

I’d be curious to see how/if the inside of the scales differ. My authentic Bugout has a very distinct pattern. Wondering if the clone is able to mimic the square pattern.

[@joelb1299]

Purchased three of the clones. The factors mentioned here aren't necessarily going to help someone identify, since there are a lot of manufacturers making clones in China. Also, unless you're getting directly from Benchmade, there's a good chance the Chinese clone is in a legit Benchmade box as a return. Some retailers may not notice the discrepancy and just resell if it still looks new. Probably lots of people walking around with clones who don't realize it.

[@BladeStuff]

For the most part, I would agree with you. Not sure if many are using legit boxes, but.... I suppose it is possible. Thanks for commenting

[@joelb1299]

@@BladeStuff Sure. thanks for sharing. I got the clones for like $12, and knew they were clones, so not expecting much out of them. They just look nice. :D Have a good one.

[@RetirednbrokeinPa]

I received a 940 Osborne from a legit dealer in a legit BM box. The knife had what appeared to be milled carbon fiber scales. The first thing I noticed was the pivot screw was smaller than a T10. Then upon close inspection I discovered mold marks inside the scales similar to the Grivory ones on the lesser models. Of course the vendor took it back and refunded my money, but he likely allowed a dishonest customer to return a clone in a genuine box and lost a lot of money in the deal. Be very careful when purchasing these items!

[@cluckcluck2001]

I enjoy my 2 clones better than my real 535. The main reason is that I am not afraid to give the clones a real beating. I paid $2.90 + $5 shipping on Wish. My clones have zero blade play, are centered perfectly, flick open great and close under gravity. Obviously some kinda weird steel, but seems to hold a good edge. Absolutely amazeballs.

Mad that someone else made a knife for what it really cost, and not some glorified RIP off benchmade makes. Bugouts shouldn't be no more than $60.

[@BladeStuff]

I would agree with you that the Bugout seems overpriced for its build. Like the Bugout or hate the Bugout, that does not give someone else the right to sell their product as a Bugout. If they want to design and produce a knife, that is perfectly ok. They can even sell it for whatever they want. If it is a good product, it will stand on its own. There would be absolutely no need to sell or market it as something that it is not. That would be both dishonest and deceitful. This is just my opinion. Thank you for commenting. I do appreciate feedback.

[@lokichoki_]

I just bought a real one, I've had multiple clones and they were serviceable. The handle flex & bubble wrap were the only definite way to tell but there are new clones that address this benchmade needs better counterfeit measures such as QR codes etc

[@tetrizine]

I'm not paying 2-3 or even 400 dollars for a knife I'm going to beat to shit using it everyday. I like clones their quality is very good for what you pay for and hopefully it causes name brands to be more competitive. I would be scared losing out or losing a $20 clone. I wouldn't even want to use a $400 knife cause I'd be nervous scratching it or messing it up the whole time.

[@BladeStuff]

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, and I respect yours. I am curious to know if you apply this philosophy to other items as well such as tools, computers, shoes, beds, vehicles, instruments etc? Don't get me wrong, there is nothing wrong if you do, I am just curious. Personally, I would rather spend more money to get more quality on items like these. Admittedly, there are some things that I don't spend more on because I feel that the benefits do not outweigh the extra costs. To each his own I guess. Thanks for commenting, I appreciate it.

I would respectfully have to say no. If you change out the scales and spacers, you have only fixed 2 of the many problems. Additionally, I have absolutely zero confidence that the clone has anywhere near the quality steel that it claims. If the manufacturer is going to misrepresent all other aspects of this knife, why would they not do the same with the blade steel and HRC? This is just my humble opinion.

5:28 other than spotting if it's real or not, the packing and that bag most of us really never going to use may are indicators but not really life changing difference in quality. You picked the fake bag up and checked the stitching to criticize it - which is OK, but you barely checkt the original which could also have bad stitching since who knows where benchmade buys those (china maybe?) When telling those difference you need to keep in mind that you know wich one is wich and so you see those differences. Give both to someone who don't know and let him share his intentions. Or compare a set of fake / real one of wich you yourself never held the certainly real one in your hand. Let someon cover the real showing differences like the logo and then compare it. Will you know? If a good clone comes along, you will fail.

I’m wondering what steel they use for their counterfeits??? Every knife is being knocked off, right up to Zero Tolerance and Chris Reeves. They can’t be using good steel???

[@BladeStuff]

Thank you very much for your comment. I appreciate and respect your opinion and I also realize that that you are not alone with this school of thought. For me, one of the problems with this would be developing an opinion on a real one based on the look and feel of an inferior product. For example, if I were to make the blade steel, pivot, clip, scales, and overall manufacturing exempt from my scrutiny when basing an opinion, then the only thing left is the size and shape which may or may not be accurate. The fake in this video felt distinctly different than the real one. I even handed them both to my 12-year-old girl without telling her which is which and she identified the fake. If I would have based my opinion solely on the fake, I am not sure I would have bought the real one. Either way, I respect your opinion and wish you good luck with your purchases. Additionally, I appreciate your comment and I thank you for watching.

@@BladeStuff i totally agree with your reply, there nothin wrong with buying the expensive knives, my favorite knives were all over $100 due to the quality control, cheap ones get too loose and require more care to stay usable and cheap steels suck to sharpen, im interested in seeing what these fake benchmade knives can go through, compared to the real thing, like an actual torture stress test on the material made with both knives, but i totally agree with your stance on fakes, just wanna try it out for myself to satisfy my curiosity

In the back of my head i knew the price was too good to be true. So i took it over to a couple who sold Real Benchmade knives and had them check it out. Said it was built very well. Was th Carbon Fiber one the carbon fiber is on the inside also. Whether its real i don't know. You can't squeeze the scales together. For me, it was the pockt clip and being able to access the screw just above the clip. And the trademark "R".if they made the clones with good steel ( s90v) they would put Benchmade out of business. $ 288.00 for a real carbon fiber mini bugout is ABSURD.

Ok ok. If you do a few things you to your clone you can get rid of the majority of your issues. 1) put some locktite on the screws 2) replace the swivel screw with a t10 screw 3) purchase new scales $20-40 A quick amazon search on these items for a grand total of $41. I’ll give you the matte black finish is kinda ugly. I’m not a fan of a serated edge on a knife. Furthermore who cares what kind of steel a knife blade has, almost every human male on the planet doesn’t know how to sharpen them anyways. I hope you help your buddy improve his clone instead of just shitting all over his purchase, which from your statement early in the video you said he was very happy to get his hands on one.

Counterfeiting is indeed illegal. Hello! Clones on the other hand are not. Many Manufacturers held in such high esteem have been cloning Custom makers for as long as I can remember.. No one says a word about that, but oh no, if one of their knives has a similar looking knife by another company, everyone gets up in arms. If it has a companies name on it and is not made by that company, nor has said companies permission for it to be made by another entity, it is a counterfeit and is illegal. Apparently the vid producer here doesn't know the correct terms nor the legal definitions or ramifications. While I appreciate his position, and to an extent, his righteous indignation on the subject, I could take him more seriously if he knew what the heck he was talking about. I just got in a Gen. Benchmade 940-1 with a s90v blade and the workmanship on the knife is pretty much pitiful. there is NO Excuse for the price on many of their products and sadly, most buyers have NO Idea as t what to look in quality vs lackluster knife. Seems to me Benchmade is ripping off the public just as bad as the counter fitters are! KnifeMaker

No offence by why should knife makers get this stupid law were china who builds cheaper and in most times better versions.people who make fishing lures this happens cars etcetera.
