The Buck Knives 853 Small Selkirk Survival Knife has added features to enhance survival when it matters most. In additionto the 420HC steel blade, the Selkirk features a micarta handle with steel bolsters (rear bolster can beused as improvised hammer), and a heavy-duty belt sheath that can be configured for horizontal or vertical carry.

420HC Steel
This is Buck's standard blade material because it approaches the wear resistance of high carbon alloys while delivering the corrosion resistance of chromium stainless steels. Add Buck Knives's exclusive heat-treat process and you have a very user-friendly combination of superior corrosion resistance with excellent strength for wear resistance and durability. You also have a blade that is easy to resharpen. For best performanceBuck Knives harden to a Rockwell hardness of Rc 58.

Drop Point
This blade is full bellied with a strong, thick point for heavier tasks. It can also be used as a general work knife. The top of the blade drops down toward the tip, which minimizes accidental puncturing while skinning. The drop point blade is strong and very versatile.
