Buck Knives Continues Traditions

POST FALLS, ID— While many American families continue various honored traditions, Post Falls, Idaho-based Buck Knives continues many traditions as well, including the manufacturing of various traditional—or classic—pocket knives. In yesteryear, these knives were carried by nearly everyone and were used to cut hay bale twine, punch holes in bridal leather—and possibly for whittling–and other routine chores.

Most of those classic knives were two- or three-blade models that could be easily slipped into a pants pocket and pulled out when chores or items needed cutting or trimming. With names like Stockman, Cadet, Deuce Trapper, Toothpick and Canoe, you know these knives were also carried far and wide by outdoorsmen.

To get a better look of these time-tested classics, visit www.buckknives.com and look at the provided details of the three-blade Model 301 Stockman or the Model 303 Cadet. The Cadet has three blades, including: a 2 ½-inch clip blade; a 1 ¾-inch sheepsfoot; and a nearly 2-inch long spey-style blade. These traditional pocket knives are around three inches long when closed and are available with a black Valox or rosewood handle. Some of these traditional pocket knives have single blades, like the Model 379 Solo and the Model 385 Toothpick knives. If you slip one of these traditional knives into your pocket, you will be joining a growing number of knife carriers and users who find that size meets function in these gentlemen’s pocket knives.

The knives are arranged in categories by interests, such as legacy, hunting, every day carry and outdoor uses. The Buck Knives’ website is also the top place to learn about laser engraving options to create a unique knife plus details on the many Custom Knife Shop options. Buck Knives also offers a wide selection of kitchen cutlery.

Buck Knives: Unequaled in Quality

POST FALLS, ID— There are many reasons to own a knife, and if you select a quality knife, it should last a lifetime. Buck Knives offers more than 150 knives which are built by craftsmen in the company’s state-of-the-art facility in Post Falls, Idaho. The company employees who travel to trade and consumer shows frequently hear from collectors, fans and customers that their first knife was a Buck knife—and often times the iconic Buck Knives’ Model 110 Folding Hunter was that first knife. Reports are common that the customer has owned and used that knife for decades. Quality and craftsmanship in a knife ensures years of quality service.

The average Buck knife often begins with a laser-cut or die-cut blade that then passes through many processes, including the famous Bos heat treatment. Knife blades and components can also be tumbled, cerakoted, ground and pass through numerous other steps on the way to final assembly and hand sharpening. Parts can also pass through CNC machines and other heat chambers to ensure handles are a perfect fit for the blade and knife design. Numerous knives are also pulled and checked in the company’s test facility—another quality assurance step.

The knives can travel more than a mile through the 180,000 square-foot-manufacturing-facility and pass through the hands of many craftsmen. Several employees at Buck have more than four decades of knife building experience and their craftsmanship skills ensure a quality product for each and every customer.

After each knife is hand sharpened and tested, the knife undergoes a precision inspection and final cleaning before it is inspected once again and packaged for shipping. Much of these final steps are a white-glove process and all details are given close attention. These many beginning-to-end steps result in the top-quality knives the Buck Knives factory is well known for designing and manufacturing.

The best place to see and review the large number of quality Buck knives is at www.buckknives.com. The Buck Knives’ website is also the top place to learn about laser engraving for a customized knife and how you can also build a true custom knife via the company’s Custom Knife Shop. Full details about Buck Knives exclusive Forever Warranty are also available on the website.

KNIFE RIGHTS: “Fail! Maryland AG Defends ‘Assault Weapon’ Ban Citing 19th Century Bowie Knife Ban”

Gilbert, Arizona— Maryland Attorney General Brian Frosh has acknowledged in a brief to the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit that knives are “arms” covered by the Second Amendment. Unfortunately for him, he tried to use a ban on Bowie knives from the 1800s as an argument that Maryland’s ban on “assault weapons” is legal. It’s an argument that just doesn’t make the cut.

As background, when the U.S. Supreme Court recently issued its Bruen opinionupholding the right to carry firearms and setting strict scrutiny as the test, it sent back to the Appeals Courts a number of cases that were appeals in a variety of gun ban cases. The courts were instructed to review the various prohibitions’ constitutionality in light of the Justices’ decision. One such case was Dominic Bianchi v. Brian Frosh in Maryland opposing the state’s “assault weapons” ban.

The Fourth Circuit asked the parties to brief the case in light of Bruen. The basic argument from Second Amendment supporters in their briefs was that Bianchi could not survive strict scrutiny. There are millions of so-called assault weapons as defined by Maryland’s ban in common use by law-abiding citizens for self-defense, and thus they cannot be considered “dangerous and unusual weapons” that are “not in common use.”

One argument that Bruen allows to accept a ban on modern “arms” is if there were analogous bans at the time the Second Amendment was passed, or which have been historically enacted in the 18th or 19th centuries and which survive to this day. Frost’s argument that historical bans on Bowie Knives are analogous and thus justify modern bans on assault weapons fails to meet Bruen’s test. Read more

Buck Knives Offers Deer Hunting Tips

POST FALLS, ID— Hunting for deer is one of the most popular pastimes in America. Deer hunters take many routes to fill their tags ranging from prowling the Back-40, to sharing deer camps with friends and family, to solo hunts on public lands. According to one US Fish and Wildlife Survey, more than nine million hunters spent on average of two weeks or more hunting deer. If you hunt deer and fill your tag, are you prepared?

Buck Knives offers these tips if you will be hunting deer in the days and weeks ahead and if you are thinking about purchasing a new knife for your deer hunting adventure.

*Select the best possible rifle, riflescope and binoculars, ammunition and other gear you can afford—and handle well. Be certain you can tame or manage the firearm’s recoil and shoot accurately. Adjust your binoculars to your vision, and focus on other key details to get the most from your hunting gear. If you sighted in your rifle or slug gun during warm weather, check to be certain you can see through your riflescope with the correct eye relief when you add more layers of winter clothing.

*Stay aware of wind directions. Deer can see and hear well, but when they detect human odor in the faintest wind, they are on high alert. Move and hunt with the wind in your favor and remember that winds can swirl in mountainous terrain. Read more

Knife Rights’ Ohio Knife Law Preemption Effective Today

Gilbert, Arizona – September 13, 2022 – Knife Rights’ Ohio Knife Law Preemption bill signed earlier this year by Gov. DeWine takes effect today. This is the culmination of years of Knife Rights’ efforts in Ohio.

Last year that resulted in the repeal of Ohio’s ban on manufacture and sale of switchblades. That bill also cleared up the vague, confusing, and too often abused, Ohio law regarding carry of any knife by defining a knife, razor or cutting instrument as a “deadly weapon” or “weapon” ONLY if it is used as a weapon. That change also allowed concealed carry of knives in the state.

Knife Law Preemption now makes those reforms applicable statewide. Numerous cities and towns in Ohio are no longer able to ban knives that are perfectly legal under Ohio’s statutes. It is a great feeling to be able to add another “green” state with which we are now finished to our map of accomplishments. Check it out at:KnifeRights.org/about/accomplishments

Buck Knives Offers Dove Hunting Tips

POST FALLS, ID—Dove season heralds the beginning of the fall hunting seasons for many hunters across America. Dove hunts are also great times to meet family and friends for an enjoyable day outdoors.

The professionals at Buck Knives offers these tips for dove hunters:

*Scout your hunting site and search for dove travel zones, such as open corridors between tall trees, or lanes from a resting area to the field. Position yourself off to one side of these dove flight lanes when you hunt.

*Select a hunting location where you can sit with the sun at your back so you have better visibility of the sky overhead without enduring sun glare and sit slightly ahead of brush or fence lines that can help break up your outline. Read more
