Buck Vantage Pro

[E304life]

S30v with Bos heat treat and g10 handles for $45. Is there a better value than this knife if I require G10 handles and good blade steel? Almost seems to good to be true.

Thoughts?

Thanks,
Andrew

Solid Value

Paul Bos heat treat is good stuff -- the right balance of hard and tough.

S30V is a good steel. Very good steel.

G10 is a good, robust, grippy handle material. (Can be rough on clothing.)

At any price under $50, this is a good value.

I have some of the current Buck offerings, and they're well made, well finished, and sharp as a harpy's tongue. Further, I know from personal experience that they completely stand behind their product.



Yeah, I'd go for that.

Get one for me while you're at it.
