Easy to carry, clean, and tough enough for just about anything.
Made out of the very durable 420HC steel.

It would make a great knife for a hiking trip out in the woods, could also be used as a smaller sized backup survival knife.

For $25-30 bucks combined with a "forever warranty" from Buck, I would highly recommend this knife to anyone.

Nice looking knife. Wish it was made of better steel.

What's wrong with the steel?

Nothing wrong with the Buck 420HC steel.
I have a packlite also and it's a great deal of a knife

Excellent camera work and review. I love the pack-lites and feel like they make an excellent minimalist fixed blade, while Buck's 420HC is more than serviceable and great for the price I wish they would offer it in some "better" steel like their 13C26 Sandvik that they do so well and S30V.
