I find myself wanting an all around field knife and was wondering if the Buck will stand up to real world use. I don't want a blade for the collection, this blade will have to earn a place for itself.
I've handled the Buck and it feels great in my hand, and I've always been happy with the 425 steel they use. I guess I'm just looking for some feedback from people who know fixed blades.
I've already determined the sheath is not up to the job, so that won't be an issue. I'm thinking that Kydex might be the way to go here. Any thoughts?
I'm well aware that this is not a high end blade, but I use work knives pretty hard and I'd rather not abuse a high dollar knife.
Thanks for listening, Tim.
