Buck Knives has built the American folding-knife standard since 1902 — knives that sharpen to a working edge, lock solid when open, and don’t break the budget. The brass bolsters and hardwood handles on the classic line are the detail most other production knives don’t bother with, and the 420HC stainless blade steel holds an edge that’s easy to touch up in the field.
The 722 Spitfire is Buck’s aluminum-framed everyday folder — 3.25-inch 420HC drop-point blade on a lightweight 6061 aluminum frame with a liner lock, thumb stud, and deep-carry pocket clip. Anodized finish, positive lock engagement, and a shape that splits the difference between a work knife and a gentleman’s carry.
Buck Knives manufactures its folding knives at its factory in Post Falls, Idaho. The company runs its own heat-treatment line — the 420HC ‘Paul Bos’ heat treat is a Buck trademark that outperforms the same steel in most other production knives — and carries a Forever Warranty against defects on every blade it makes.
