Blade Technology
420HC Steel: Buck's standard blade material, 420HC steel, offers an excellent balance of wear resistance, similar to high carbon alloys, with the corrosion resistance of chromium stainless steels. Through Buck's exclusive heat-treat process, this blade provides superior corrosion resistance, excellent strength for durability, and is easy to resharpen. It is hardened to a Rockwell hardness of Rc 58 for optimal performance.
Drop Point Blade: This versatile blade features a full belly and a strong, thick point, making it suitable for heavier tasks and general work. The top of the blade drops down towards the tip, which helps to minimise accidental puncturing, particularly useful during tasks like skinning. The drop point blade shape is both strong and highly adaptable for various outdoor uses.
