Buck started making tactical knives during WWII and has continued to push the potential of materials and design to make better functioning tools. Built to serve the needs of those who serve us, this line of heavy duty knives are designed for the most demanding of situations.
The Sentry does as its name implies, it will guard and protect. The Sentry comes prepared with the full tang, partially serrated, non-reflective blade and heavy duty handle in Kryptek Highlander camo. The blade guard provides protection while in use and it’s carried in a nylon MOLLE compatible sheath.
420HC 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. Add Buck's 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. For best performance Buck hardens to a Rockwell hardness of 58-60HRC.
Dependability is at the heart of everything that is Buck. Their loyalists expect no-nonsense practicality, and Buck’s Avid Level knives define this characteristic. Designed for functionality and crafted from high-quality materials, these knives deliver consistent reliability under rigorous use. Designed and hand-crafted in the USA.
