The Buck Zipper hunting knife is pretty enough to leave on a display shelf and rugged enough to handle the toughest jobs that you can imagine. Available with your choice of wood-grain or texturized rubber handles, the Zipper will soon become your treasured hunting companion. Here are my thoughts on the Zipper:
What I like about the knife:
1. The 4 and 1/8th inch blade is crafted from 420 high carbon steel, which holds a great edge even after many uses. The tang extends to the end of the handle (full tang). This is a great feature that will protect you from an unsuspected break or separation from the handle.
2. Buck's patented gut hook will come in handy for skinning wild game and surviving in the wilderness. Although strong and effective, this feature does not take away from the overall strength of the knife.
3. Your fingers are protected from slipping unto the blade thanks to the rock solid brass guard. This is especially useful if you go with the wooden-handle version, which is more slippy than it's rubber counterpart.
4. Surviving the wilderness with a cheaply made sheath can be pretty difficult. The Buck Zipper comes with a durable nylon sheath that will hold up to years of hard use.
5. My blade came hair-shaving sharp right out of the box. The hollow ground, drop-point style blade is perfect for making precise cuts or tearing through fibrous materials with ease.
What I didn't like:
I wish that the Zipper was available with partial serrations, which would come in handy while skinning or for general utility work.
Overall:
With a suggested retail value of $112 for the wood handle and $96 for the rubber handle, the Buck Zipper is a great value for the money. Not only are the knives great-looking, but they hold their own against some of the competitor's more expensive hunting knives. You'll be happy to have such a strong knife by your side.
