Buck Knives
Buck Knives is one of America’s most storied cutlery makers — family-owned since Hoyt Buck forged his first blade in 1902 and now run by the fifth generation of the family in Post Falls, Idaho. Its 1964 Model 110 Folding Hunter defined the lockback folding knife, and every Buck is backed by the company’s unconditional Forever Warranty.
