Looks real, 200 is a bit high for the condition. You can find them in better condition for a bit less on knife swap

They sell clones of these on tiktok for $20.
I would make real sure. It looks good to me but who knows. Do the fakes come with the correct boxing?

Fakes are so good now it’s hard to tell. I’d get a used one off the swap and throw CF scales on it for that price.

High price, you can find new ones on eBay for 150.

Do not buy this for $200. It’s not even worth the gamble for $100.

I would just assume everything is fake these days unless you’re buying new from an AD.

This knife is so often cloned I’d be skeptical unless buying it from an Authorized Dealer or direct personally

Check out some of the online knife shops that sell on consignment like edc lifestyle. You can probably find one cheaper that has only been carried & not used

Looks legit. Ask for a new picture of the knife with something in frame with the date and user name of the seller. Sometimes sellers who push fakes will reuse old pictures of legit knives and send you a fake.
And before someone comes in and comments that they could photoshop something or blah blah. This is just a method to further verify a listing – none of it is perfect. But you always assume some risk buying things online.

Go to bladebinge and only bladebinge for used stuff. That’s my opinion but I don’t think I’ll ever risk buying used knives anywhere else, not even on knifeswap. But you do whatever works for you.

Looks real. I’d get it. Price is pretty good too. Bugout is one of the best knives out there.

As someone who ownes multiple real bugouts, I am confident that the one in this photo is REAL. The font, clip, and the grind looks right, as well as the benchmade laser etching makes me say this is an authentic Bugout.
The one in the picture appears to have a bit of wear on the thumbstuds and clips. And the knife appears to have been sharpened by the owner based on the bevel. So take that into consideration on if you wanna purchase this one. Even though they cost $350 new, I would look for a Bugout in better condition unless i’m betting a really good deal like $150 or less.

20gram? That’s not possible. I put mine on a scale and it’s 59.

I do have a backspacer in it.
