Buck Machete

[Mike Hudson]

Can anyone tell me anything about Buck Machetes? I have one.

They are made from metal, are a general sword-machete shape and they cut stuff.
I hope that answers your very general very nonspecific question.

Serious note, didnt know buck made any machetes, is it a survival knife the Buck Hoodlum?
If its the buck hoodlum sell it.

NO HOODLUM HERE

Buck made that?

 

[Phoynix]

Maybe it was a custom smith called Buck

After doing an extensive search... (2 mins on google).. I could not find a single Buck machete.

To our knowledge and according to Jim Henson (Buck company historian in 2003) there were approximately 80 made. A majority have saw teeth on the back and this is the only one known to have a factory sheath.

Contact Heath, Stone Knifeworks at Bladeforums. He briefly comments on them here, seems to know about them. Supposedly just for Employee awards or one off special events
