BENCHMADE 165-1 MINI BUSHCRAFTER – CPM® S30V® SATIN DROP POINT BLADE, GREEN G10 HANDLE WITH RED SPACERS, LEATHER SHEATH, MADE IN USA
Compact Build. Serious Edge. Premium Performance in a Slimmed-Down Package.
The Benchmade 165 Mini Bushcrafter takes everything that made the original Bushcrafter iconic and condenses it into a lighter, more compact form factor—without sacrificing toughness or capability. Built for those who need trail-ready performance in a smaller carry footprint, this knife is ideal for everyday outdoor use, from carving and food prep to fire starting and shelter work.
Designed by Shane Sibert, the 165 features a high-ground drop-point blade made from CPM-CPM® S30V® stainless steel, tuned for strength and edge retention. The contoured green G10 handle with red spacers fits comfortably in-hand and is secured with pressed titanium tubing. Its classic leather sheath includes a snap retention strap and ferro rod loop for field-readiness wherever the path leads.
