Bugout® | Crater Blue | Drop-point
While our best-selling Bugout®s sure do have an array of colors to choose from as far as handles go — folks have been asking about pairing this all-star EDC with more premium scales found on other styles. The new 535SL-13 Bugout® is built with a super sleek, ultralight, anodized aluminum handle in crater blue, a color we pulled from profoundly deep waters in nature. Featuring a premium CPM-S90V stainless steel drop point blade with a Cerakote® crushed silver finish, and turquoise anodized hardware, the new 535SL-13 is an elevated variant within the Bugout® family that carries light, tackling any EDC task, outdoors and in.
