SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Buck 301 Stockman with Granadillo wood handles is a rugged, time-tested pocket knife built for those who value tradition and reliability. Proudly made in the USA, this folding knife combines heritage craftsmanship with durable materials, offering a refined yet hard-working tool suited for everyday carry or collection. Featuring a classic three-blade Stockman configuration, the 301 includes a clip point as the primary blade, along with spey and sheepsfoot blades for versatility in cutting tasks. All three blades are crafted from Buck’s 420HC stainless steel, heat-treated by industry legend Paul Bos for improved edge retention, corrosion resistance, and sharpenability. The satin finish adds a clean, no-nonsense touch to each blade, making it both practical and understated.
The handle is made from Granadillo, a dense tropical hardwood known for its strength and rich, natural grain. The wood is polished to a smooth finish that brings out its warm, reddish-brown tones, giving the knife an upscale look without sacrificing durability. The Granadillo scales are framed by polished nickel silver bolsters that add structural support and a classic, refined touch. Nickel silver pins and stainless steel liners provide a secure, lasting build. The knife uses a traditional slip joint mechanism with strong backspring tension for consistent blade action and safety. At just under 4 inches closed, the Buck 301 carries easily in a pocket or pouch without unnecessary bulk. It weighs in at approximately 2.9 ounces, making it a solid choice for those who appreciate a well-balanced, everyday folding knife. With over a century of knife-making expertise behind it, the Buck 301 Stockman represents the best of American-made tradition, updated with premium materials and fine detailing. Whether you're on the ranch, out in the field, or just need a dependable cutter at your side, this knife is ready to deliver. Combine heritage and craftsmanship with this Buck knife at SMKW!
