Description

Despite being a new take on a bushcraft knife, designer Shane Sibert’s already carved a legacy with the 162.  Active Junky was drawn to the 4.17mm-thick blade sandwiched in Benchmade’s G10 handle composite.  The knife’s proportions feel close to ideal, accommodating a wide range of palm sizes short of monstrous.  Testers have carried this one around the American West with little thought for the 162’s durability (and resistance to dropping, to be specific).    The drop point blade penetrates easily, converting forward momentum into steady cutting progress.  Not equipped for pommel striking, this bushcraft knife nonetheless thrives in scraping, digging and drilling situations (beyond standard cutting duties).  With a satin handle finish and the red layering, the Benchmade 162 makes for a proud presentation knife.  The included stitched-and-riveted 2.7oz sheath adds Sibert’s personal flair to gift giving.
