The Buck Knives HiLine is a modern, precision-engineered folding knife that perfectly blends style, strength, and everyday functionality. Designed for collectors, enthusiasts, and those who demand a dependable blade in a compact package, the HiLine delivers both performance and visual appeal. With its striking combination of anodized aluminum and black G-10 inlays, along with a robust D2 tool steel blade, this knife is built to handle daily tasks, outdoor adventures, and everything in between with confidence and ease.
At the heart of the HiLine is a 3.25-inch cleaver-style blade crafted from D2 tool steel. Known for its exceptional hardness, edge retention, and durability, D2 steel ensures that the HiLine stays sharp and dependable even with frequent use. The plain edge offers clean, precise cuts, while the cleaver-style shape provides versatility for slicing, chopping, and controlled cutting tasks. The stonewash finish not only enhances the blade’s rugged aesthetic but also helps conceal minor scratches and wear, keeping the knife looking sharp over time. This combination of style and function makes the HiLine a versatile tool for both serious tasks and everyday use.
Opening the blade is smooth and effortless thanks to the integrated blade flipper, which works seamlessly with the framelock mechanism. The framelock provides secure blade retention, keeping the blade firmly in place during use while allowing for quick, intuitive deployment. This design ensures safety, reliability, and ease of operation, making the knife a practical choice for daily carry while delivering a satisfying, responsive action each time you flip it open.
The handle is crafted from anodized aluminum with black G-10 inlays, creating a striking contrast that is both stylish and functional. The G-10 provides a textured grip for added control, while the anodized aluminum offers strength and durability without adding unnecessary weight. With a right-hand, tip-up pocket clip and a lanyard hole, the HiLine is easy to carry, attach to gear, or secure for quick access. Measuring 4.37 inches closed and 7.62 inches overall, and weighing 3.9 ounces, it strikes the perfect balance between portability and performance, fitting comfortably in hand and pocket alike.
Every aspect of the Buck HiLine reflects Buck’s commitment to quality craftsmanship and thoughtful design. From the D2 tool steel cleaver blade to the dual-material handle and reliable framelock, this knife is built to perform consistently in a wide range of situations. Its combination of durable materials, ergonomic design, and modern aesthetics makes it a standout addition to any collection or everyday carry setup.
