Channel your inner survivalist with the Benchmade 163BK Bushcrafter, a premium evolution of the original 162 design by Shane Sibert. Built for life on the trail — or straying off it — the new 163 is reimagined with enhanced blade geometry, refined handle ergonomics, and modern finishes that elevate it above a standard bushcraft knife.
With a full-tang CPM-CruWear® blade hardened to 63–65 HRC and coated in black Cerakote® for strength and corrosion resistance, the 163BK is a serious tool for serious outdoorsmen. The carbon fibre handle scales provide strength and weight reduction while feeling secure and comfortable in hand. Whether you’re prepping firewood, batoning, feather sticking, shelter building, or handling food prep at camp, the Bushcrafter is built to excel.
The knife comes with a modular Kydex sheath featuring push-button retention for secure carry and easy deployment. Pair it with the Exotac ferro rod (sold separately, Product 50023) for the ultimate bushcraft setup.
