Benchmade 537SGY-1 Bailout Knife

The Benchmade 537SGY-1 Bailout stands as a prominent member of the "black class" folding tactical knives, boasting a robust design featuring a CPM-M4 steel tanto blade, aluminum taper, and anodized aluminum liners.

Crafted with Tactical Precision

The Benchmade Bailout showcases tactical aesthetics, emphasized by its distinctive head shape and military-inspired aluminum liners. Sporting a combo blade with a Japanese tanto profile, forged from durable CPM-M4 tool steel, it ensures superior performance in various scenarios.

Premium Steel Quality

The CPM-M4 steel boasts a remarkable hardness of 62-64 HRC, enriched with high levels of molybdenum, tungsten, and vanadium, resulting in unparalleled sharpness retention and wear resistance. Given its susceptibility to corrosion, diligent and regular blade maintenance is essential, with diamond sharpeners recommended for efficient sharpening.

Tactical Blade Design

The tanto and combo blade offer seamless penetration, precise cutting, and versatile utility. The serrated section enhances cutting efficiency, particularly with ropes, tapes, and tough materials. Coated with gray Cerakote thermosetting paint, the blade exhibits exceptional abrasion resistance and corrosion protection.

Effortless Deployment

Facilitating single-handed operation, the blade unfolds swiftly with the aid of a double-sided peg crafted from anodized aluminum. This user-friendly feature caters to both right- and left-handed individuals, even while wearing gloves.

Dependable Locking Mechanism

Ensuring secure handling, the knife incorporates the trusted Axis-lock mechanism, celebrated for its resilience to stress, resistance to dirt, and ease of use.

Lightweight Yet Sturdy Construction

The knife's liners, fashioned from green anodized 6061-T6 aluminum, are affixed to steel liners, enhancing structural rigidity and strength. Aluminum's lightweight nature, coupled with its strength and machinability, enhances the knife's carry comfort and usability.

The liners feature a non-slip texture and widened base, promoting a secure and ergonomic grip regardless of hand size. Moreover, the wide, high-set clip, with reversible options, enables discreet pocket or tactical equipment carry.

Finishing Touches

The handle is completed with an aluminum insert housing a carbide bolt, doubling as a glass breaker and facilitating hammer blows.
