The Buck 524 Alumni is a classic gentleman's style back lock folder with a bit of a modern twist. Instead of traditional brass liners and wood handles like the Model 110 the Alumni sports classy, thin aluminum handle scales for a knife that weighs in at under and ounce! Paul Bos Heat Treated 420HC offers great cutting performance in this little folder that you'll forget you even have until you need it.
Brand new item directly from Buck Knives.
The Blade: BOS Heat Treated 420HC has great toughness and corrosion resistance with good edge retention, ease of sharpening and razor sharpness. The high hollow grind on the utilitarian drop blade provides excellent slicing performance for your every day needs. The blade is stonewashed for a rugged, long wearing finish and opens smoothly via a generous nail nick.
The Handle: Thin aluminum handle scales house the blade and back lock mechanism. This Alumni has anodized blue scales with a contrasting Buck logo. The lock back mechanism is simple and reliable and will provide years of solid use. For carry simply slip the Alumni into a fifth pocket, jacket pocket or pouch sheath and you're ready to go.
