Buck's fixed blade lineup carries the company's oldest DNA—Hoyt Buck's first knife in 1902 was a fixed blade, and the catalog still runs deeper here than almost any American maker. The fixed blade range anchors on BOS heat-treated 420HC at 58-60 HRC, with Pro versions upgrading the classics to CPM S35VN and canvas micarta, MagnaCut appearing through limited runs, and the Heritage Series dressing the standards in Dymalux Cocobolo with polished brass.
The 119 Special remains the quintessential Buck fixed blade—a 6" clip point with phenolic handle, aluminum guard, and aluminum pommel that has served as the benchmark hunting knife since 1961. The 119 Pro upgrades to CPM S35VN and green canvas micarta, and the flat pommel and guard make the 119 a natural for engraving. The 120 General extends the same profile to a 7.38" blade for heavier camp work, and the 124 Frontiersman brings a 6.25" straight-back bowie with black micarta scales to the top of the size range.
The 105 Pathfinder runs a 5" clip point, the 102 Woodsman a 4", and the 103 Skinner a wide-bellied processing blade—each available in standard phenolic, Pro trim with S35VN and micarta, or Heritage cocobolo. The 117 Brahma packs the 119's profile into a 4.5" blade for detail work and backup carry, and the 212 Fixed Ranger translates the 112's pattern into a compact fixed blade.
The 104 Compadre Camp Knife pairs a 4.5" drop point in Cerakote-coated 5160 spring steel with full-tang canvas micarta construction, flanked by the Compadre Froe for batoning and splitting and the Compadre Camp Axe for chopping duty. The Selkirk survival series adds a fire striker integrated into the sheath. For field dressing designs like the Alpha, Pursuit, and PakLite 2.0, see the dedicated Buck hunting knives collection.
Every fixed blade ships with a leather or polymer sheath, with replacement sheaths available for the classics, and the full Buck Knives fixed blade range is backed by the Forever Warranty.
