Mini Bushcrafter

The Mini Bushcrafter is the compact sibling of the Bushcrafter — same purpose-built bushcraft DNA scaled down to a more pack-friendly size. Built with the same full-tang construction and robust 4.17mm blade thickness as the full-size, it retains all the heavy-duty capability for feather sticking, batoning, shelter building, and food prep — just in a lighter, more compact package that's easier to carry on day hikes, backpacking trips, and minimalist kit builds. Updated blade geometry and contoured handle ergonomics keep the cutting efficient and the grip secure through long work sessions in cold, wet, or gloved conditions. Paired with a premium leather belt sheath for safe carry and quick access, the Mini Bushcrafter is the kind of compact fixed blade that punches well above its weight class. Made in Benchmade's Oregon City facility and backed by the LifeSharp lifetime service program.

Compact Bushcraft Fixed Blade
The compact sibling of the Bushcrafter — same purpose-built outdoor fixed blade platform in a more pack-friendly size. Designed for feather sticking, batoning, shelter building, kindling, food prep, and general heavy-duty outdoor cutting where lighter carry matters.
Drop-Point Blade
3.38" drop-point profile balances tip control and belly for versatile bushcraft tasks — detailed work like feather sticks and food prep, plus heavier cuts like batoning and processing wood.
Heavy-Duty Construction
Robust 4.17mm blade thickness — identical to the full-size Bushcrafter. Built to handle batoning, prying, and the repeated heavy impacts of bushcraft work without flex or failure.
Full-Tang Construction
Full-tang design with the blade steel running continuously through the entire handle. Maximum strength and durability for the hardest outdoor tasks — no weak points at the handle/blade junction.
Contoured Handle
Contoured ergonomic handle at 0.925" thickness for a secure, full-hand grip. Designed for comfort and control during extended work sessions — even with cold hands, wet conditions, or gloves.
Leather Belt Sheath
Premium leather belt sheath for safe carry and quick access at the hip. Designed for belt-loop or drop-loop carry, keeping the knife secure and ready in the field.
Made in USA
Manufactured at Benchmade's Oregon City, Oregon facility. American-made quality with rigorous tolerances and tight QC.
LifeSharp Lifetime Service
Benchmade's LifeSharp program covers free lifetime sharpening, cleaning, oiling, and re-calibration. Send or visit any Benchmade dealer — your knife comes back factory-sharp, for life.

Cleaning
Wipe the blade and handle with a soft, dry cloth after each use — especially after contact with moisture, sap, or acidic materials (citrus, blood, etc.). For deeper cleaning, rinse under warm water with mild soap and dry thoroughly. Avoid prolonged moisture exposure, particularly on the handle scales.
Sheath Care
The leather sheath is a critical part of the Mini Bushcrafter system. Treat it periodically with a leather conditioner (such as mink oil, leather balm, or beeswax-based product) to keep the leather supple and weather-resistant. Avoid soaking the sheath in water; if it gets wet, let it dry slowly at room temperature away from direct heat. Stiff or dried-out sheaths can dull the blade edge over time.
Sharpening
The Mini Bushcrafter is covered by Benchmade's LifeSharp program: free lifetime professional sharpening, cleaning, oiling, and re-calibration. Send it in or visit any authorized Benchmade dealer. For field maintenance, use quality diamond or ceramic stones at the manufacturer's recommended angle; the full-tang construction makes the knife easy to clamp and sharpen with standard systems.
Storage
Store the Mini Bushcrafter clean and dry, ideally in its leather sheath for protection. Avoid storing in damp environments (basements, unheated tents, vehicle trunks) for long periods — moisture trapped against the blade can cause corrosion. Periodically oil the blade lightly with a rust-inhibiting oil or food-safe mineral oil for long-term storage.
Warranty & Service
All Benchmade knives are backed by the manufacturer's warranty against defects in materials and workmanship, plus the LifeSharp lifetime sharpening and maintenance program. Contact Benchmade directly or visit any authorized dealer for service.
