Buckknives Alpha Hunter Fixed Blade Hunting Knife
A Kansas blacksmith apprentice named Hoyt Buck was looking for a better way to temper steel so it would hold an edge longer. His unique approach produced the first Buck Knife in 1902. Hoyt made each knife by hand, using worn-out file blades as raw material. His handiwork was greatly appreciated during World War II.
After finishing a stint in the navy a decade earlier, Hoyt's eldest son Al had relocated from the Pacific Northwest to San Diego, California. In 1945, Hoyt and his wife Daisy moved in with Al and his young family, and they set up shop as H.H. Buck and Son. Following the death of his father, Al kept the fledgling custom knife business going until incorporating Buck Knives, Inc. in 1961. Al introduced his son, Chuck, to the knife business at an early age, and both Chuck and his wife, Lori, were involved when the company was incorporated.
In 1964, the knife industry was revolutionized with the introduction of the Model 110 Folding Hunter, making Buck Knives a leader in the field, a position they hold proudly today. Chuck worked his way up through the company, serving as President and CEO for many years before handing over the reins to his son, CJ, in 1999. Chuck remained active as Chairman of the Board until his passing in 2015. Lori now serves on the Board of Directors and is actively involved with Buck promotional events throughout the U.S., continuing Chuck's legacy.
The 664 Alpha Hunter is built for the rigors of hunting large game. Features a full tang blade, adding to the durability of this hunting knife and making it perfect for the demands of hunting. Due to Buck's famous heat-treat recipe, the 420HC steel will maintain an impressive edge, reducing the need to sharpen in the field. The handle is made of glass-filled nylon with Versaflex inlays, a protective coating designed to increase the usable lifetime of the equipment. The knife includes an imported black polyester sheath with a Buck logo leather accent and belt loop.
