• Weight: 7.6 oz. (216 g)
• Handle: CNC contoured Micarta, brown/black
• Carry System: Injection moulded nylon sheath

Features:

• 420HC Steel
• This is Buck's standard blade material because it approaches the wear resistance of high carbon alloys while delivering the corrosion resistance of chromium stainless steel. Add our exclusive heat-treat process, and you have a very user-friendly combination of superior corrosion resistance with excellent strength for wear resistance and durability. You also have a blade that is easy to resharpen. For best performance, we harden to a Rockwell hardness of Rc 58.

Drop Point:

• This blade is fully bellied with a strong, thick point for heavier tasks. It can also be used as a general work knife. The top of the blade drops down toward the tip, which minimizes accidental puncturing while skinning.
• The drop point blade is strong and very versatile.
