arjimlad Posted September 6, 2010 Report Share Posted September 6, 2010 I don't have that particular one, but the steel on my folding hunter is top notch, and holds a wonderful sharp edge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wymberley Posted September 6, 2010 Report Share Posted September 6, 2010 Can't help with quality, but if you do go for it, have a look at outdoorgb.com for prices. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casts_by_fly Posted September 6, 2010 Report Share Posted September 6, 2010 I've got a standard Bucklite (110 with plastic instead of brass/wood). It holds an edge really well, it is really light to carry, and simple to clean. Not much more you could ask. rick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddoakley Posted September 6, 2010 Report Share Posted September 6, 2010 Cant offer anything useful here but when looking for a new knife recently i was very surprised at the number of bad reports i heard about Buck knives generally!!! Anyone else? Edd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rimfire4969 Posted September 6, 2010 Report Share Posted September 6, 2010 I've got a Buck i think its the Alpha, its not a bad folder you get what you pay for its ok but not as good as my Fallknivens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigMungo Posted September 8, 2010 Report Share Posted September 8, 2010 what do you want the knife for? For gutting and general use, i have an opinel 9. It has a comfy wood handle and holds an edge well. Biggest bonus, they're only about £9! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gixer1 Posted September 8, 2010 Report Share Posted September 8, 2010 The bad reports will have come from the buck knives which are made in Asia, you can tell this by reading the blade - it will say BUCK USA where as I think the Asia ones just say BUCK. I have 2 Omni hunter folding knives of different size and the are both fantastic but sharpen them regularly for the best results if skinning or butchering carcasses also if you can get someone to get you one in the USA you will save a fortune - the omni hunter over here is nearly £80 in some places but I got mine in the states for $39!
