Details
The Buck Compadre Camp Knife was designed and engineered for the outdoor enthusiast. This tough, hard use fixed blade is built out of thick 5160 spring steel upgraded with Cobalt Cerakote coating and rugged natural canvas Micarta handle scales. A popular design for heavy field use, the Compadre is back with a new style but the same great performance.
Brand new, direct from Buck Knives.
Blade: The thick spine of the Compadre is offset by the saber height, shallow hollow grind for a great balance of durability and cutting performance. The drop point profile is highly utilitarian while the subtle recurve of the edge lends itself to a wide range of cutting tasks from game processing to batoning and everything in between. 5160 spring steel is tough with good edge retention and the Cobalt Cerakote coating offers corrosion resistance and a discreet, non-reflective finish.
Handle: Heavy duty hardware attaches the contoured, natural canvas Micarta handle scales to the full tang blade. The handles are simple, durable and comfortable with good traction and subtle swell that pairs with the integral guard to lock the hand in while allowing for multiple grip options. A generous hole at the pommel is provided for lanyard attachment.
Carries via the included black leather belt sheath.
5160 Carbon Spring Steel: 5160 Alloy Steel, also sold as AISI 5160, is a high carbon and chromium spring steel. It offers excellent toughness and high ductility. 5160 is commonly used in the automotive industry in heavy spring applications, especially for leaf springs. Chromium is added to increase hardening response and performs well in a wide range of Rockwell hardness. It can be hardened up near the 60s for knives needing more edge holding.
