  • Our take on the Benchmade Bushcrafter

    The Benchmade Bushcrafter is a fixed-blade bushcraft knife with a 4.38-inch drop-point blade in CPM-Cru-Wear tool steel at 63-65 HRC, a full tang, and carbon fiber scales. It is built for hard outdoor use: batoning, carving, fire prep and camp chores. The high-hardness Cru-Wear holds an edge far longer than the 1095 or A2 steel common on rival bushcraft knives, but it is harder to sharpen in the field and more brittle at the edge. Owners praise the grip and balance; some find the handle thick and the sheath bulky for the money.

    Questions and answers

    Is the Bushcrafter good for batoning?
    Yes. The full tang and 4.17 mm stock handle batoning well, and the drop point works for splitting kindling. Avoid twisting the blade in the wood.
    How does it compare with a 1095 bushcraft knife?
    Cru-Wear holds an edge much longer and resists corrosion better. Carbon steels like 1095 sharpen faster and are tougher at the edge, which matters if you sharpen in the field.
    Is the handle good for small hands?
    It is on the thick side. Shoppers with smaller hands often prefer a slimmer handle or a different bushcraft model.
    What is in the box?
    The knife and its sheath. Check the listing for the exact sheath type included.
    Is it legal to carry?
    It is a fixed blade with a 4.38-inch blade. Fixed-blade carry rules vary widely by state and country, so check local law before carrying it.
    Can it be used for food prep?
    Yes. The drop point and full flat-ish grind slice well, though the thick stock is less nimble than a dedicated camp kitchen knife.
    Where is the Benchmade Bushcrafter cheapest?
    At Amazon, for $350.00, 22% under what the other stores charge, as of our latest check.
    Where can I buy the Benchmade Bushcrafter?
    5 stores we checked sell it, including Deadwood Knives, Tennessee Cutlery, Fin & Fire Fly Shop, PowerGear, Amazon.
