Editorial take
Benchmade Bushcrafter 163-1 is a United States fixed-blade bushcraft knife built around CPM S30V; full tang; premium contoured handle. It is strongest for premium general bushcraft with strong warranty support.
Not ideal for
- The price is high for S30V, and the geometry is less carving-focused than a dedicated Scandi.
