The Buck 797 Range Ops Pro Folding Knife is a rugged, American-made folder designed for users who want dependable performance in a lightweight, streamlined package. Combining a black nylon handle with a black Cerakoted reverse tanto blade, this modern folding knife delivers a purpose-built look and practical features suited for everyday carry, outdoor work, and demanding utility tasks.
The 3.375-inch reverse tanto blade is crafted from proven 154CM stainless steel and measures 0.09 inches thick. The Cerakoted finish gives the blade a subdued black appearance while adding a durable protective coating. The reverse tanto profile provides a strong point and useful straight cutting sections, making it well suited for controlled cuts, utility work, and everyday jobs where blade strength and precision matter.
154CM steel has long been respected for its combination of edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance, making it a dependable choice for a working folder. Whether you're opening packages, handling camp chores, or taking on tasks around the worksite, the Range Ops Pro gives you a capable cutting edge in a compact design.
The black nylon handle keeps the knife lightweight and rugged. At 7.875 inches overall and weighing just 3.6 ounces, the 797 Range Ops Pro provides a substantial working profile without adding unnecessary weight to your everyday carry. Its all-black configuration gives it a clean, understated appearance that's equally at home outdoors or on the job.
Built with convenient carry in mind, this folder features deep pocket carry to help keep it secure and discreet when you're on the move. The reversible pocket clip lets you configure your carry according to your preference, adding versatility for different users and carry positions.
The Range Ops Pro represents Buck's commitment to combining modern knife design with American manufacturing. Its practical reverse tanto blade, durable nylon handle, premium 154CM steel, and adaptable carry system create a capable folder that's ready for regular use.
Backed by Buck's Forever Warranty and made in the USA, the 797 Range Ops Pro is designed to be more than something you simply keep in your pocket. It's a working knife built for users who value dependable materials, practical design, and the confidence that comes with a Buck-made blade.
