Buck Special 119BKS Hunting Knife Fixed Blade

I had very high hopes and expectations for this knife given lots of positive reviews and the high price tag. However, I was immediately disappointed and I am returning it. Overall, it just doesn't feel very premium. The weight is more or less the same as a standard 119. The micarta honestly doesn't ...

This is a perfectly serviceable knife. It arrived sharp enough to shave hair, which shouldn't be remarkable, but is nonetheless a good sign. It had a few very minor finishing issue, but these were minor enough that I would have still bought it had I the option to pick it myself. The sheath is surpri...

Immediately liked the feel of the knife. It felt GREAT, it was thicker than I thought it would be as well. Sharp! I was somewhat surprised at the quality of finish work....as in I guess I got the lemon, but there were black spots in the blood groove and some heat discoloration on the blade. Like som...

Well it is a decent sheath knife, read the other reviews. What can I say about it? I no longer camp. In fact I only camped twice in my life and both times it was a fiasco! The first time I went winter camping in Wisconsin with the wrong tent, the wrong sleeping bag, and with my pet/friend German she...

I have owned this classic buck knife in the past... and to be honest, this knife was not the quality I have come to expect from them.

When gazing down the edge of the top of the tip of the knife you can notice a distinct deviation in its milling... so that instead of a straight spine to the tip of t...

I have size Medium in mens gloves and the handle is barely big enough for four of my fingers, and your thumb has absolutely no where to go. There is a reason why you see all the pictures on here with people holding the knife so that the butt of it is in their palm, or their thumb is over the bolster...

I remember this make and model knife from my childhood. Buck Special was the minimal standard for hunting. That was in the 80’s. Enter the 2010’s... The blade is heavy. That’s great! I love the weight of the blade on this, but the handle feels hollow. What is this thing made of? “Made in the USA” is...

Great knife however not very sharp out of box and has a few "apprentice marks" on the blade. Looks like B team was at the wheel when mine was pushed down the line. Nothing major though. Just gonna sharpen and hit it with trophy wheel for that bling bling look. Sheath is great with quality snap. Hand...

Overall, I think this knife is a solid platform. The handle construction is bomb-proof. There is one glaring flaw in the design, though, and that's the point. It breaks easily. Just assume it will eventually break on you. I've owned 3, and no matter how much I baby the point, I eventually break it. ...

Who does not like a $60 fixed blade Buck knife? Purchased for back trails hiking as part of the emergency kit. This is a low cost, high value piece that you hope you never have to use in an emergency/survival situation. Large enough for utility, sturdy enough to batten as a wood chopper and intimida...
