Hi, I recently saw a picture of a new Nighthawk that sports a two tone handle treatment. Is Buck still using 425 steel for this blade or are they using a different steel for this new design?

Pretty sure it's the regular steel, they usually make a point of stating if it's ATS34
or BG42.

Hey Guy,
The Knighthawk is still made of 420HC. The new handle color does look much better, in my opinion.
Take care,
