I saw the threads about customizing Benchmades, I have 3 storeboughts and ive been hapoy with them, so reading one thread on here I saw they sent emails with video photos and such so decided to pull the trigger. Apparently how theyte doing has changed, I guess do to the Virus crap. I ordered it last Sunday and kept looking it still showed processing and even the website says it normally processes within 24 hrs, so I called today and the lady said itll show processing until its complete. So just a heads up on the customs, it sounds as if theyre running a week or two slower now too, no biggie.
I missed that thread (I'm pretty new here) do you have a link or the name of the thread? Search came up empty

I think thats it..Benchmade bugout is legit, aug 2020.
As a sidenote, I gutted two whitetail on a benchmade auto very recently,, there was 2 of us working, but held an edge through it on sv30, that said, I normally keep a helluva edge on a knife, thats my edc, and use it daily around the ranch and hadnt sharpened it in a month as I was slacking. This new one im going to try the M4 steel and see how I like it. I still swear by those old mill sawblade knives, damned things were solid.

Anyone have experience with a benchmade bugout for gutting and breaking down an animal? Any other lightweight options for this task? I can get the bugout in m4 steel about to pull the trigger.. my criteria is a folder because I don’t need the added sheath weight fold it up and keep it in the bag, lightweight, edge longevity.
I currently use a lightweight buck 110 it’s cheap and light but the edge will barely finish the field work (gut, skin, quarter) on a moose but again it’s cheap so I carry 1 in my bag and few in the hunt camp they work but it looses its edge towards the end. Looking to upgrade to only needing 1 knife to process a moose (gut skin quater) the bugout seems to fit the criteria
I have a bugout that I got this summer, and put a flytanium G10 scale kit on it because I wanted it to be a little stiffer than stock. It lives in my pocket as my EDC and was the only knife I had on me for 6 deer this fall. Only used it to dress them out, and it worked great with no issues, even through the rib cage.
