terrible.....people who really know how to center a blade are laughing at the randomness of your attempt (and its STILL offcenter)

I keep going back and forth on getting one of these.

I just got screwed on a clone from eBay. I'm so pissed.

Like 1778

This worked like a champ after I took apart my PM2 Crucarta for maintenance, and it wouldn't center back no matter how much I tightened and loosened everything

I'm honestly happy I didn't waste my money on a $200 Benchmade Bugout. It is nowhere near worth the price it is retailed at. Don't get buyers remose and attack us for buying clones. Ozark Trail aka Walmart made a $10 version and its just as good. I also bought some clones of the Bugout and for would never pay $200 for some minor differences and better steel. The 3 $15 clones will last longer than a real Bugout.

Worked! Thanks

Surprisingly I’ve bought a few authentic models after buying their clones to try out. my biggest beef are the people passing them as real on ebay

Hey, man. Great video. So simple, did the trick!

the federal reserve is cloning dollars, so i will buy chinese clones. thank you.

Thumbs down. Video ended.

How is it that there are no videos of this knife being used??!! It's like knife guys collect knives like it's jewellery. This video speaks about this knife is a tool, but no demos? Would the hinge of this knife be able to handle doing some actual work? Not just 'think' that it might be able to chop fire wood. I mean, let's see it do that.

In my opinion I'd buy 10 knock off clones before I'd pay 200$ for a pocket knife...that's just crazy...the manufacturer's are to full of themselves I wouldn't even take one if they give it to me...the knock off are perfect...if you lose it or it gets stolen you aren't out much...besides it's just a pocket knife...they should be charging a cheaper price....maybe around 75 or under I'd consider it as it is no way...not happening.

I have a real one and bought a clone because the price was crazy and its very very good for the price look just about the same the only giveaway is when its closed the logo sit halfway in my real one doesnt but not 100% sure

Surprised you didn't put a little RED Loctite on the end of the screws. I do it on all knives i disassemble. DON'T use the Blue. I bought a very well made mini bugout imposter at the local gunshow. 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. Benchmade is off the chain on their prices. Thanks for your video Brother.

The knives cost a fortune and the consumer still has to center the blade? Dumb consumers 🤣🤣🤣

I order the same one but with MagnaCut blade. Can’t wait to see it!!! God bless you

Easily one of the most biased reviews

thanks for the informative video. I hate when people don't show the other side of the knife, just the show side

Скажите , где купить этого красавца ???

That background music sounds like a really cool version of camouflage, also thanks for the tip, it did work

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. And for goodness sakes sharpen that knife when it comes out of the box. You kids today think brand new knifes are sharp. 😂

No you know what's unfair is people charging The working Man $400 for a 3-inch pocket knife

Counterfeits not clones if they being sold as actual Benchmades! A clone would not be marked as actual Benchmade product and the perpetrators are criminals! Knowingly selling a counterfeit product is also a Federal offense. Let's get the terminology right. Nice video! 👍

Fails to mention the massive tool mark on the racasso that Benchmade would not have put on a blade.

A plastic pencil eraser works great. Same as Trend recommends for their diamond plates. I also use their diamond lapping fluid on my WE. Increases your stone life and prevents rust damage that you’ll get using water (and prevents dust)

Why do people have to be dishonest and evil, I hate people that’s why I have dogs…

Too bad it doesn't have a Blackwash finish on the blade!

This video’s 2 years old and so out of date now. Bought a clone for £20 from Aliexpress before Xmas and everything, the box, the knife play, everything is the same as the genuine one shown in this video.

This was posted 2 years ago and still helping people. My para 3 is looking great. Put new scales and ended up off center. Thanks for the video.

Where did you get the OD green version?

Wow ... with the ultrasonic you can definitely tell which areas of the stones you work the most. Good information, thanks.

I bought a clone on Aliexpress. they have improved a lot. There are versions with ball bearing now, for 30 dollars

It happens when benchmade take over 290 dollars here in eroupe for a knife that is half plastic.

When you spend $200 for a folding knife, you should not have to fiddle with blade centering. One of the biggest failings of Spyderco.

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

Good stuff man. How can i stop my PM2 from having lock stick!?!? 😩🤦🏼‍♂️

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. I personally buy one real one for display and a clone to use and 98 percent of the time except microtech i prefer the clone.sorry my money is mine

That's a really bad clone. The good clones don't have different sized screws or anything that obvious of a flaw

Lynch Northwest makes a nice looking and well-reviewed Ti clip, but it's $88. I have one on order for my Drunken!

My clone is nicer then my legit Benchmade. 😢. The one i got has none of those distinguishing differences. Visually it's identical to my real one. Even the blade coating is identical. It also came out of the box hair popping sharp, centered, and smooth as butter in the action. It's utterly insane, I paid 6 bucks for the stupid thing plus 6 for shipping. If you threw it in a pile of 10 legit Benchmades I'm not sure I could pick it back out. I've seen some wonky Benchmades right outta the box at stores with more QC issues then this clone. Mine even came with a perfect rellica of the Benchmade baggie in the box. Stretchy, soft, perfect match to my others that they return my Lifesharps in.

Guess I've been doing it right. Had the same issue on my PM2 as well. Good video. Thanks

I just don't understand why someone would knowingly buy a clone. Supporting ripping off an American company plays right into the hands of the Chinese government, and as a matter of fact, buying any Chinese made knife is directly supporting the Chinese government and military. If you have the option, buy American products. If you can't afford to, go without.

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.

Great music.

Good video learned alot, also don't know if u knoticed or not but the Axis Locks are different could have it backwards but the real one it's towards the front and clone it's towards the middle

Classiest knife videos on the internet. By far.

Thanks a lot. Useful review for those who is about to own BM bgt

I'd recommend using a basket in the US cleaner to keep the stones off the bottom of the cleaner. Resting on the bottom may damage your cleaner over time.

This isn't true. The Benchmade website allows you to build the whole knife from the studs , thumb stud, blade color,designs etc. Ordered 4 from the website and they came with the sticker box,bag ,stickers as they are axis model bugouts and there is was no cutout. Been ordering from them for awhile
