Buck 301 Stockman Three-Blade Slipjoint Folding Pocket Knife - 3.00" Paul Bos Heat-Treated 420HC Satin Blades - Crelicam® Genuine Ebony Wood Handle (0301BRS2)
Product Description
Deploying a traditional everyday pocket knife on the ranch, in the woodshop, or for standard around-the-house utility chores demands a tool built with absolute historical resilience and versatile cutting profiles. Standard modern tactical folders force operators to rely on a single blade pattern that may be too large or aggressively shaped for delicate, high-precision slicing or puncture work. Additionally, cheap plastic composites used in typical retro folding handles are prone to cracking under high structural pressure or fading when exposed to intense UV rays on outdoor worksites. The Buck 301 Stockman Ebony (0301BRS2) elegantly masters these demands. Combining a three-blade slipjoint architecture with a sustainably sourced, natural wood chassis, this American-made heirloom delivers timeless mechanical versatility paired with Buck's legendary build quality.
The technical foundation of the 0301BRS2 centers on a versatile three-blade array precision stamped from Buck’s proprietary 420HC high-carbon stainless steel. Masterfully optimized through Buck’s renowned Paul Bos custom heat-treatment process, this time-tested steel achieves an outstanding balance of fine edge stability, micro-grain wear resistance, and extreme ease of field sharpening. The knife features a 3-inch clip point main blade for detailed carving and general slicing, a 2.1-inch sheepsfoot blade for clean, controlled cuts with a minimized risk of accidental tip punctures, and a 2.1-inch spey blade designed for skinning, sweeping cuts, or delicate scraping. Each satin-finished blade deploys smoothly using traditional manual nail nicks.
Functionally, the 301 Stockman is housed inside an exceptionally durable handle framework dressed in genuine Crelicam® Ebony wood. Sourced through an eco-friendly, ethically harvested partnership with Taylor Guitars, this dense, premium hardwood offers rich, dark tones and a natural moisture-resistant grain that ages beautifully over years of carry. The ebony wood scales are securely pinned to solid brass liners, flanked by highly polished nickel silver bolsters, and accented with an inset classic Buck shield emblem. Operating on a robust backspring slipjoint system, the knife provides crisp detents and solid, safe deployment resistance without the bulk of modern locking levers, allowing this 3-ounce icon to slip flat and comfortably into any dress or work pocket.
*Traditional Bench Notes & Pocket Maintenance:*
The Buck 301 Stockman is built for generations of reliable duty, but simple preventative care will keep its slipjoint springs firing smoothly. Since this knife utilizes natural Crelicam® Ebony wood scales, occasionally rubbing a light coat of mineral oil or wood wax into the handles will preserve their dark luster and prevent drying or cracking. Because the pocket knife features three separate blade channels, lint and jobsite debris can accumulate in the backspring tracks over time. Periodically blow out the handle channels with compressed air and apply a single drop of high-speed folding knife lubricant to each blade pivot to maintain clean, snappy spring tension.
