It is then, in the basement of a church in 1942, that Hoyt Buck began making knives by hand. It was design that was dialed in after 40 years of making knives to customer specifications. The anniversary edition 119 Special features a custom medallion in the handle and a 75th anniversary blade stamp.
The leather sheath also features an embossed anniversary logo. Engraving is offered on right side (blade facing right). Made in the USA.
