Benchmade – 5371FE-2601 – Shootout – OTF Auto – Z-Wear Tool Steel Coated Drop Point – Grivory – Taiga Green

The Benchmade 5371FE-2601 Shootout® is a bold seasonal variation of one of Benchmade’s most innovative out-the-front automatics. Built for serious everyday carry, this lightweight yet uncompromising OTF combines high-performance materials with a striking Field Earth (FDE) PVD Battlewash blade finish, paired with a rugged Taiga Green Grivory® handle and distinctive Burnt Copper hardware. The result is a knife that delivers premium cutting performance while standing out with refined, tactical styling. At the core of the 5371FE-2601 is a premium CPM Z-Wear® tool steel blade, hardened to an impressive 63–65 HRC. Known for exceptional toughness, edge retention, and wear resistance, Z-Wear® performs in demanding environments where durability is critical. The 3.49-inch drop-point blade offers versatile cutting capability, from precision tasks to heavier utility work. Its FDE PVD Battlewash finish enhances corrosion resistance while giving the blade a rugged, field-ready aesthetic that helps mask wear from daily use. The Shootout® platform is engineered with a double-action out-the-front automatic mechanism, allowing rapid blade deployment and retraction with a simple thumb slide. Despite its robust build, the knife weighs only 2.75 ounces, making it one of the lightest full-size OTF knives in its class. The Taiga Green Grivory® handle keeps weight down while maintaining impressive strength and impact resistance. A deep-carry, tip-down pocket clip ensures discreet carry, and the ambidextrous design makes it equally effective for right- or left-handed users.
