Benchmade 165BK Mini Bushcrafter Fixed Blade - Shane Sibert Design

The Benchmade 165BK Mini Bushcrafter brings Shane Sibert's acclaimed bushcraft design into a more compact, EDC-friendly package without sacrificing the legendary toughness of the full-size 163 Bushcrafter. This fixed blade features a full tang construction with a 3.38" drop point blade crafted from CPM-CruWear steel (63-65 HRC), delivering exceptional edge retention and toughness for demanding outdoor tasks. The black Cerakote finish provides superior corrosion resistance while maintaining a low-profile, non-reflective surface ideal for field use.

Built specifically for modern bushcraft applications, the 165BK excels at feather sticking, batoning, fire preparation, and shelter building. The carefully designed sharpened choil allows for throwing sparks from a ferro rod, while the drop point blade geometry handles everything from food prep to heavy-duty cutting tasks. The lightweight carbon fiber scales with distinctive red G10 spacers reduce overall weight to just 6.08 oz while maintaining the structural integrity needed for hard use. Hollow titanium tube construction ensures maximum strength without unnecessary bulk.
