The Zipper, like its name suggests, is a gut hook knife that works just like a zipper. The combination of edge angle and hook length performs beautifully. Back in 1993, there were a lot of gut hooks on the market that just didn't do the job. So, CJ Buck, a 4th generation Buck helped to design a knife that would live up to the family name. This knife is a tool you can count on.Made in the USA

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 our 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 performance we harden to a Rockwell hardness of Rc 58.
