Buck 293 Inertia Knife

Fast, smooth and effective, the Inertia springs open with a single flick of the thumb. The anodized 6061 T6 aluminum handle includes added grip features with a removable stainless steel clip for discreet deep pocket carry. The heavy duty fasteners enhance the durable construction, while maintaining an elegant look. Made in the USA.

• 420HC STEEL: This 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 our 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 we harden to a Rockwell hardness of Rc 58.
• DROP POINT: This blade is full bellied with a strong, thick point for heavier tasks. It can also be used as a general work knife. The top of the blade drops down toward the tip, which minimizes accidental puncturing while skinning. The drop point blade is strong and very versatile.
