Buck knives is one of the most trusted and best known names if the knife world. They are known for their Buck folding hunter. this is one of the most copyed knives in the world.

After the bombing of Pear Harbor. When the military asked for help to arm the troops Hoyt Buck started to make knives for them to help in the fight, and put knives into the hands of as many troops as he could. Not only was he a skilled knife maker, but a patriot as well, and did what he could to help our country.

Later he, and his son moved the company to San Diego and started making knives on a much larger scale. This is where the Buck knife that we all know was made.
