Buck 119 Special - Cocobolo DymaLux Handle

The Buck 119 Special has been a classic pattern of the Buck Knives line for over 50 years. Hoyt and Al Buck used to build them by hand in their two-man shop. Today, this larger hunting knife with a large 6.0" clip blade is perfect for detail work, piercing and cutting in tight places for added control, and is as popular as ever. The Cocobolo DymaLux® handle sports a polished brass pommel and guard. Each Buck 119 Special includes a rugged brown leather belt sheath.

More about 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 steels. Using their 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.
