Buck quality
Buck quality is well known and it shows again in this automatic EDC. It is very elegant and feels great in the hand. The blade is sharp, centered, with no play, with 154CM Black Cerakote steel. The deployment is strong and flawless. A plus for me is a safety switch. The size is also right for an EDC. Great OTS auto knife.
Buck 838 Deploy AUTO Folding Knife 3.25" 154CM Black Cerakote Drop Point Blade, Sniper Gray Aluminum Handles
Great knife out of the box extremely sharp. Nicked myself on first deploy of the blade no pun intended. It has a good weight to it and fits nicely in your pocket. Feels good in hand. The blade lock is my only reason for not giving five star review. When locking unlocking the blade there is no feel in the lock slide or audible sound found myself having to look to see if it locked or unlocked. It always stayed in which ever location I put it in and stayed there. And just after 3 days of owning I set it down lock side down picked it up and the lock button was laying on my work bench and it had only cut two packages and been riding in my pocket so no rough use. The way Buck attached the button was by peening over the pegs. Not a huge deal but for the price definitely should not of had that happen and not wanting to send it back to Buck for the forever warranty will probably fix myself. That being said that will probably void my warranty of this knife but will allow me to cerakote the scales and customize it a little
