Descriere BUCK GENERAL
The General is essentially the "big brother" of the Buck 119 Special. This slim but very strong knife in the traditional American Bowie style is a perfect combination of hunting and outdoor knife. Whether setting up your base camp, cutting firewood, skinning game or preparing the fish you've just caught, a "Bowie" knife is ideal for so many jobs. The 17 cm long blade is made of 420 HC stainless steel with excellent edge retention. It has a fuller and the curved tip typical of this style of knife. The comfortable, rounded handle and the finger guard ensure a secure grip. The sheath is made of approx. 3.0 mm thick saddle leather, and can be conveniently attached to your belt. You have a choice of two versions, both of which are perfectly crafted: The model with the black phenolic resin handle features a highly polished aluminium finger guard and pommel. It weighs 74 grams less than the traditional model, which sports highly polished brass fittings and a handle made of wonderfully grained and polished Cocobolo wood. Both are highly collectible, and are often passed on from generation to generation!

420 HC steel:
Buck's standard blade material because it combines the wear resistance of a high-strength carbon steel with the corrosion resistance of stainless steel. Add to this the special Buck heat treatment process, and you have an extremely user-friendly combination of edge retention and excellent corrosion resistance plus high strength and durability. It also means that the blade is very easy to resharpen. A Rockwell hardness of 58 Rc is achieved.
