A.G. Russell Knives

Limited to 1,000 pieces.

For 2008, Buck® has created a series of three knives inspired by the artistry of handcrafted guitars. The handles are crafted from actual guitar fret material and abalone dots set in rich cocobolo wood scales. The first in this series is the Buck® Gen-5™, a fixed blade knife introduced in 2007.

The Gen-5 was designed by Josh Buck, son of the current company president, and the fifth generation Buck to be involved in the company. Like his father and grandfather, Josh spends his summers working in different parts of the company. He spent the summer of 2006 on the production floor and it was there that he designed the knife known as the Buck® Gen-5™ Skinner.

The 3" modified skinner blade is mirror polished 154CM at 59-61 Rc. Measures 7-3/8" tip to butt and weighs 3.8 oz. Limited to 1,000 serial numbered knives. Very limited quantities available. Includes a distressed brown leather sheath and a Certificate of Authenticity. Made in the U. S. A. Suggested retail is $420.00.
