The Importance Of Purchasing A Quality Buck 105

A knife is one of those things that most people take for granted. After all, we use them every single day. They're used for everything from cutting food to opening packages to even just cleaning up after ourselves. Knives come in many different shapes and sizes, so finding the perfect knife is often difficult. Fortunately, there are several factors to keep in mind when looking for the best knife for your needs.

This means that the handle should be constructed of durable material such as wood or plastic. You'll find that wooden handles are generally stronger than their counterparts made of plastic. Plastic handles tend to break down quickly, especially if they're exposed to moisture. Wooden handles, however, have a tendency to warp and crack over time. A knife with a wooden handle is therefore less likely to break.

While larger blades are great for chopping vegetables, smaller blades are ideal for fine work like carving meat or slicing bread. For example, a small paring knife is perfect for peeling fruit or trimming herbs. On the other hand, a chef's knife is designed for large cuts of meat. These types of knives typically feature a wider blade that allows for easier control.

For instance, do you plan on using your knife to chop vegetables? Or would you rather use it to open cans? Do you want a knife that's easy to clean? All of these questions go towards determining how functional your knife is. For example, a knife with a non-serrated blade is better suited for tasks where you don't need to worry about accidentally nicking yourself. Serrated blades are useful for tasks like cutting through bone or cheese.

Features To Consider When Buying A Buck 105

Blade length. The longer the knife, the more cutting power you'll have. But if you plan on using the knife for skinning animals, then you'll want something shorter than a utility knife.

Handle material. Some hunters prefer wood handles over plastic. Others love the grip provided by rubberized grips. Whatever type of handle you decide on, make sure it feels comfortable in your hand.

Weight. While you may think you'd rather carry less weight, heavier blades tend to stay sharper longer. And they're easier to control while moving through brush.

Edge geometry. Sharp edges are great for cutting meat, but dull edges are better for skinning hides. Make sure the edge has been sharpened recently.

Stainless steel. Stainless steel is durable and rust resistant. However, stainless steel isn't always ideal for skinning hides. Because it doesn't hold an edge well, you'll need to sharpen it frequently.

Length. Most hunters prefer knives between 3 1/2" and 4". Anything larger makes it difficult to maneuver through tight spaces.

Tip shape. Round tips work best for skinning hides, whereas square tips are better for slicing meat. Flat tips are perfect for filleting fish.

Overall balance. Knives with balanced weights are easier to wield and more stable in motion. They also tend to be lighter.

Blade thickness. Thicker blades cut faster and slice through thicker hide skins. Thin blades are better for thinning hides.

Finish. There are many finishes available. Leatherwood, black oxide, and satin chrome are just a few options. Choose whatever finish appeals to you.
