Buck Knives

Buck Knife making excellence has been a Buck family tradition since 1902. Hoyt Buck got things started when he fashioned an old file blade into the first "Lifetime Knife." And we've been evolving our methods and materials ever since, constantly striving to build lasting relationships with our customers. Buck Knives are meant to last and are very durable.

A young Kansas blacksmith apprentice named Hoyt Buck was looking for a better way to temper steel so it would hold an edge longer. His unique approach produced the first Buck Knife in 1902.

Hoyt made each knife by hand, using worn-out file blades as raw material. His handy work was greatly appreciated during World War II. After the war, Hoyt and his son Al moved to San Diego and set up shop as H.H. Buck & Son in 1947.

Al Buck revolutionized the knife industry in 1964 with the Model 110 Folding Hunter. The folding “lockblade” knife made Buck a leader. A position we proudly hold today.

Hoyt and Al Buck's ingenuity may have put the company on the map. But it is our ongoing commitment to developing innovative new products and improving what we have by third and fourth generation Buck family members that have made Buck the successful knife maker it is today.

Frankly, it's what our customers expect from a Buck. Buck knives A NAME OF PRIDE.
