Buck Knives 863 Selkirk Knife

420HC is known for its excellent corrosion resistance and ease of sharpening. While it is durable, you should still wipe the blade dry after use in wet conditions and occasionally oil it to keep it in peak condition.

Yes, the contoured Micarta handle is designed specifically for a secure, ergonomic grip. Micarta also tends to get grippier when wet, which makes it a reliable choice for demanding tasks like bushcraft or field dressing.

The fire starter is built directly into the injection-molded sheath, ensuring it is always accessible when you need it. You can detach it to use the ferro rod against the spine of the knife blade to create sparks for starting a fire.

With its fixed-blade construction and 4.625-inch drop point blade, the Selkirk is robust enough for standard camping tasks like processing kindling. However, like any knife, it is best used for cutting and slicing rather than heavy prying or extreme impact work.

The injection-molded sheath is designed for versatility and can be adjusted to carry the knife both vertically and horizontally on your belt, allowing you to customize your carry preference.
