Benchmade Bailout AXIS Folding Knife 3.38" M390 Stonewashed Plain Tanto Blade, Carbon Fiber Handles - 537-09
The hard-working Bailout family of tactical folders has long been revered for its no-holds-barred ability to balance strength and durability with a slim, ultralight build for quickness and comfort through tough tasks, making it just as impressive as a daily carry tool as it is in the field. The 537-09 Bailout introduce amplified toughness to this impressive design. Enhanced with a premium M390 tanto blade with a stonewashed finish, these new workhorse variants are finished off with sturdy and sleek carbon fiber handle scales.
Differing from the drop-point blades of the traditional Bugout models, the 537's blade mimics a Japanese profile tanto, as opposed to the tanto Benchmade has used on models like the Griptillian, AFO II, and Barrage that sport a straight belly and crisp primary bevel. This design was influenced by a desire to embolden the tip strength of the blade while maintaining superior slicing performance.
