Buck The 55
Item #: BU55BRS
$69.95
The 55 is a little brother to Buck's famous 110 Folding Hunter. This gentleman's folder has a brass frame that features ebony handle scales. Ebony wood was originally introduced on the 110 and 112 models in the 1960's, but in the 1990's, federal regulations on endangered woods led Buck to utilize a resin treated wood. Harvested under Taylor Guitars thriving conservation project, Buck now employs the use of Crelicam Genuine Ebony, a natural material with beautiful grain patterns that provides customers with a nearly indestructible knife handle.
The 2-3⁄8" clip point blade is made of 420HC stainless steel at 58-60 Rc. and has a very nice satin finish. Measures 3-3⁄8" closed. Weighs only 1.9 oz. Made in the U.S.A. Suggested retail is $84.00.

Buck Knives
Buck Knives has been around for a very long time. In fact, Buck Knives was just switching from handmade knives out of a Southern California Garage to factory made knives about the same time we began the A.G. Russell ™ Knife mail order business. Over the past half century buck has become one of the largest and most important knife companies in the world. They are so well known, in some parts of the country pocketknives are referred to as “Buck Knives.”
