Buck 110FG comes with 420HC Stainless Steel as default. This steel with higher carbon content gives the required wear resistance along with the corrosion resistance as that of chromium steel. The steel is heat-treated by Buck to give a user-friendly blade that can be sharpened easily and endure for long. The blade is wickedly sharp when it arrives, and doesn’t get blunt after abuse. The blade’s nose is designed in a way to assist the knife in many situations and purposes, the curvy tip is sharp enough to pierce through any flesh. The blade comes with a thumb resting portion in the bottom end to give the user even more comfort while play. With no extra gimmicks in the blade, the Buck logo with the term “USA” is engraved in the blade.

The Handle

The handle is an elegant part of this knife with such a smooth finish. The handle is made of Macassar Ebony Dymondwood coupled with Brass bolsters as default. The rivets in the wood give the grip needed while holding the knife. The finger grooves in the bottom part ensure that the stay stays in our hand during use, giving better traction. The knife looks perfect when the blade is closed. It can be carried in a pocket anywhere or used as an EDC too.

The Locking Mechanism

The Buck uses a sturdy locking mechanism that works like charm when the blade is open, ready for play. The mechanism is really a perfection for the blade that narrow. The thumb rest in the blade gives extra support, should the lock fail. But the lock never fails. We found it similar to the Gerber LMF II Infantry Knife.
