Shootout | CF-Elite Tanto| 5370FE The Benchmade Shootout redefines what an OTF backup should be—engineered for serious EDC users who demand lightweight performance without compromise. Its CPM-CruWear steel blade, finished in Flat Earth PVD coating, pairs with an injection-molded CF-Elite® handle to deliver exceptional durability at just 2.8 ounces. The double-action mechanism deploys with precision, while the hardened carbide glass breaker and reversible deep-carry clip ensure this knife handles whatever your day demands. At 8.22 inches open with a 3.51-inch blade, the Shootout strikes the ideal balance between capability and carry comfort. Shootout | Crater Blue Ivory Tanto | 5370FE-1 The Shootout® expands its lineup with fresh colorways that maintain the blade excellence fans demanded. The 5370FE-01 and 5370FE-02 feature the same Flat Dark Earth CPM-CruWear® steel—renowned for its strength and edge retention—now paired with Crater Blue or Cool Gray Grivory® handles. This 2023 evolution swaps the glass breaker for a functional lanyard pommel, keeping weight at a featherlight 2.8 ounces. The spine-fired double-action mechanism deploys with authority, while the deep-carry clip and ambidextrous design make it a versatile EDC choice that performs as hard as it looks. Shootout | Ranger Green Grivory Drop Point | 5371BK-01 When Benchmade introduced the SHOOTOUT®, it reset expectations for automatic EDC knives. The 5371FE and 5371BK-01 variants refine that formula with a combat-proven drop-point blade and instantaneous double-action OTF deployment. CPM-Cru-Wear® steel (63-65HRC) resists wear and maintains a sharp bite through extended field use, while the textured Grivory® handle locks your grip even in wet or high-stress conditions. Benchmade stripped away the lanyard loop and restored the glass breaker—a deliberate choice for a tool that prioritizes mission readiness. Measuring 4.7" closed and 8.2" open, it delivers serious cutting authority without sacrificing carry practicality. Fully ambidextrous with a deep-carry clip and DLC blade finish, the SHOOTOUT® is engineered for operators who refuse compromise. Shootout | CF-Elite Drop Point | 5371FE The SHOOTOUT® collection stands as Benchmade's definitive statement on automatic EDC design. The 5371FE and 5371BK-01 models combine a practical drop-point geometry with proven double-action OTF mechanics, engineered for operators who demand instant blade access. Built from CPM-Cru-Wear® steel hardened to 63-65HRC, the blade resists dulling under sustained cutting loads while maintaining a keen edge. The CF-Elite® handle features aggressive texturing for secure purchase during high-stress deployment, with an integrated glass breaker replacing the lanyard loop—a purposeful design choice that eliminates distraction. At 4.7" closed and 8.2" open, it balances concealability with commanding reach. Fully ambidextrous with a deep-carry clip and PVD finish, this is a knife built for professionals who expect zero compromises in reliability and performance.
