What customers say about "Blade"
Buck Knives 119 Special Fixed Blade Knife with Leather Sheath
- This knife holds an edge, and when it does need sharpening it's the easiest blade I've ever sharpened this size. It makes you love this blade.
- Out of the box the Buck 119's 420HC BOS steel blade will shave your hairs, it comes razor sharp and well finished.
- I am not a knife expert, but this blade feels so balanced and the finish quality is out of this world.
- The blade is super sharp out of the box and it has excellent balance. Nice all around knife.
- As it is though, the 119 is a handy size with its 6" blade and shorter and narrower handle.
Buck Knives 120 General (0120BRS-B) 5160 BOS Carbon Steel Fixed Blade Knife W/Sheath
- It has given me many good years of service in lots of different circumstances. It does a great job in both gutting and skinning.
- Like my other Bucks, I expect it will do the job I bought it for, in this case, fairly heavy duty outdoor use.
- The blade is slightly sharper than a standard 120 which is saying something.
- This knife is a great value. Nice sheath, blade fits well and it is reinforced.
- Seems like a very good steel and great design, it is high carbonn blade so best practice to oil it lightly after use.

What customers say about "Size & Weight"
Buck Knives 119 Special Fixed Blade Knife with Leather Sheath
- I like the weight, although perhaps it is slightly grip-heavy. I've used Buck knives for at least 30 years; the quality is still great.
- The weight and balance are on point, the grip fits my hand, and that cutting edge is phenomenal.
- Excellent quality, weight and handling and it comes super sharp out of the box.
- The weight is just about perfect and the edge on it from the factory is surprisingly good.
- This knife holds an edge, and when it does need sharpening it's the easiest blade I've ever sharpened this size.
Buck Knives 120 General (0120BRS-B) 5160 BOS Carbon Steel Fixed Blade Knife W/Sheath
- I have smaller hands, probably medium sized, and I find the handle to fit perfectly.
- Beautiful knife, well crafted, perfectly balanced and a work of art.
- This was a Christmas present for my husband. He LOVES it! Nice handgrip, feels natural in the hand. Great balance.
- Wonderful balance and really light for how big it is, you don't even notice you are wearing it.
- It's got good balance and great construction. It's a Buck, it meets Buck's quality, and that's good enough for me.

What customers say about "Features"
Buck Knives 119 Special Fixed Blade Knife with Leather Sheath
- Typical flawless Buck knife. The first thing that struck me was the beautiful cocobolo wrap around handle.
- Includes a thick leather sheath that secures the knife perfectly.
- The sheath is a top quality leather sheath, not some plasticy nylon thing.
- Over all this is just a great knife and the leather wrap around sheath is great.
- The smooth black Phenolic handle looks nice, but it can get slippery depending on environmental conditions.
Buck Knives 120 General (0120BRS-B) 5160 BOS Carbon Steel Fixed Blade Knife W/Sheath
- This is my EDC knife. Its very beautiful and I show it to everyone.
- Nice sheath as well. In 30 something years, Buck has never failed to produce a quality product for me.
- I will have this knife for a very long time, very pleased... The sheath is decent.
- It really seems like a piece of artwork and is quite stunning. The sheath it comes with pairs very well with the knife.
- The Sheath - quality leather and looks like it will last a lifetime as well. Thank you Buck.
