GW: Just had the folks at Buck Knives sharpen a very hard-steel folding knife. Great service and faster than advertised. The blade was so hard that my usual means of sharpening were to no avail. It is a free service, but a small fee is required to cover return postage. A good reason to support this quality American brand!
POST FALLS, ID — Buck Knives, Inc., a global leader in the outdoor, sporting, and everyday carry (EDC) knife markets, encourages adventure seekers and explorers everywhere to escape cabin fever and get outdoors as spring temperatures and longer days begin to sweep across America. The great outdoors awaits everyone.
Buck Knives recommends carrying a knife as part of your go-to gear to better prepare for what Mother Nature may send your way on your trip outdoors. The Post Falls, Idaho manufacturer offers more than 200 knives and tools to help everyone meet and beat any challenges encountered.
First, for those who want a lightweight, easy-to-slip-in-a-pocket knife,
there is the 112 Slim Select knife that weighs only 2.5 ounces. This popular knife has a reversible pocket clip and a durable 3-inch blade crafted from 420HC steel. The 112 Slim Select knife has a handle made with glass-filled nylon and is available in three colors: O.D. green, black, and orange. The 110 Folding Hunter and the slightly smaller 112 Ranger knife are other knives to consider for adventure readiness. Those knives are offered with stunning ebony handles fitted against brass bolsters. Other variations of the 110 Folding Hunter and 112 Ranger knives are also available.
If you are a person who wants things NOW, consider an automatic Buck knife that can deploy quickly at the push of a button. Eight automatic models are available, including auto versions of the iconic 110 and 112, and the Deploy Series. Many select the 838 Deploy Backout Auto with a Cerakoted drop point or Wharncliffe blade made with S35VN steel. Like many Buck knives, this knife can be personalized with a laser engraving at www.buckknives.com. Full details on Buck’s automatic knives and the laser engraving options can also be found at www.buckknives.com.
For some adventurers, a fixed-blade knife in a sheath that’s worn on the belt is the way to meet challenges. Buck Knives offers more than 50 fixed-blade knives. There are many versions, such as the 102 Buck Woodsman knife with a 420HC steel clip blade with a black phenolic handle against an aluminum pommel and guard. This knife features full-tang construction, is 7.75 inches long, arrives with a leather sheath, and is now also available in a DymaLux Cocobolo handle option. Another choice for many adventurers is the 662 Alpha Scout Pro, complete with jimping on the knife’s spine to aid with grip control. This knife has a 2.875-inch drop-point blade, made with S35VN steel, and is available with a Richlite green or DymaLux walnut handle and a burgundy leather sheath.
