Buck 417 Budgie Black - An almost indestructible resin laminate resistant to heat, cold, chemicals, impact, and abuse.

Buck 417 Budgie Black

The 417 Budgie Knife

It started as a spin-off of a past Buck Model, the 418 Vertex. It is designed for an EDC, or everyday carry, knife user who wants a premium knife (materials, blade steel) in a small, unobtrusive, lightweight package that is not intimidating.

It fits into offices, hiking packs, and anywhere else people may be uncomfortable around a more extensive, “scarier” knife. It’s perfect for all your everyday tasks.

S35VN Steel

This premium-powdered steel has the same edge retention as S30V but with properties that allow it to resharpen easier.

This steel has a Rockwell hardness of Rc 59-61.

Drop Point Blade

This blade is full-bellied with a strong, thick point for heavier tasks. The blade's top drops toward the tip, which minimizes accidental punctures. The drop point blade is strong and versatile.

Thumbhole

The thumbhole allows easy one-hand opening and helps shave off weight on this lightweight knife.

G10 Handle

An almost indestructible resin laminate resistant to heat, cold, chemicals, impact, and other abuse.

These rugged, durable qualities make G10 well suited for a knife that will get well used in extreme environments.

Machined Grip

Machined grip features on the lock arm provide traction when unlocking the knife.

Lanyard Spacer

This is the point of attachment for a lanyard. It also provides a little extra to hold for people with big hands.

Frame Lock

A frame lock functions like a liner lock, but the locking mechanism is a section of the handle frame on the side of the knife. The frame lock is a channelled lock arm that moves inward to lock against the blade when the knife is opened.

Pushing outward releases it from its locked position so the user can close the blade. The benefits are fewer moving parts and lighter weight.

Removable Clip

This removable stainless steel pocket clip is designed to fit nicely in a coin pocket on your jeans.
