Where the Bailout Shines
Built for the Trail and the Job. Sized for the no-holds-barred carry.
A tactical folder revered for its combination of no-holds-barred strength and slim, ultralight build. CPM-MagnaCut stainless super steel with enhanced corrosion resistance, Burnt Copper aluminum handle, BK tanto blade profile. The right folder for the trail or the job — same slim Bailout DNA with the upgraded steels and refined finish.
Real-World Use
01 — TACTICAL EVERY-DAY
The folder that reads tactical without overcommitting
The Bailout is the slim, ultralight tactical folder that handles EDC without specialty positioning. Sub-2 oz carry weight, slim aluminum chassis, CPM-MagnaCut steel with tanto blade profile — the right answer for the user who wants tactical-grade steel and construction without committing to a full-size tactical folder.
Why it works here: Sub-2 oz weight disappears on a belt; slim aluminum chassis carries under most clothing.
02 — OUTDOOR AND TRAIL
The folder that handles the rugged trail
On a day hike, a backcountry trip, or a hunt, the Bailout's combination of slim profile and CPM-MagnaCut steel makes it the right trail companion. Corrosion resistance handles the humid and wet environments, and the slim build doesn't add weight to the pack or belt.
Why it works here: Corrosion-resistant MagnaCut steel handles wet environments; slim profile rides comfortably on trail or pack.
03 — DUTY AND TACTICAL
The folder that handles the hard day
For the user who carries a folder on the duty belt or for tactical deployment, the Bailout's slim build and tactical pedigree make it the right answer. CPM-MagnaCut steel handles the cuts the duty calls for, and the slim aluminum chassis carries without penalty.
Why it works here: MagnaCut steel handles hard use; slim chassis carries on a duty belt without bulk.
04 — EVERY-DRAWER EVERY-POCKET
The folder that fits everywhere you do
The Bailout's compact, slim profile and ultralight build make it the right folder for the glove box, the coat pocket, the small pack — the second-tier carry that's ready when the first-tier carry isn't. Premium steel and refined finish mean it's not a sacrifice to carry the Bailout as the backup.
Why it works here: Compact profile fits in any secondary carry spot; sub-2 oz weight doesn't add burden.
Benchmade Lineage
The slim tactical folder, refined
The Bailout is Benchmade's slim, ultralight tactical folder — no-holds-barred strength in a package that disappears on the belt. The full-size 537 takes the slim Bailout platform and pairs it with CPM-MagnaCut stainless super steel for enhanced corrosion resistance, Burnt Copper aluminum chassis for weight savings without sacrificing durability, and BK tanto blade profile for the piercing cuts tactical use can demand. Sibling to the Mini Bailout for users who want the slim tactical platform in a smaller carry.
