Fairfield Knife Works Bucklore
The Bucklore is a handcrafted outdoor fixed blade from Fairfield Knife Works—designed by Matt Harbuck for hunters, field professionals, and outdoor enthusiasts who demand serious capability paired with artisan quality. This knife features a 3.9-inch 80CrV2 steel blade delivering exceptional toughness and reliable edge retention for camp work, game processing, and demanding field tasks. At 8.4 inches overall and 6.12 ounces, the Bucklore balances commanding cutting capability with genuine portability—the right size for those who understand that serious outdoor work demands substantial tools built to last through years of use.
The 80CrV2 carbon steel proves legendary for its ability to accept a field-expedient edge while remaining easy to sharpen and highly responsive to stropping. The Python Micarta scales provide distinctive aesthetic appeal and authentic character that develops through extended use and handling, improving rather than simply wearing. Every knife is hand-created by Matt in his home shop with personal attention to fit, finish, and balance—each blade becoming a unique tool reflecting individual craftsmanship. This is genuine artisan work: an outdoor knife designed by someone who understands that serious field work demands tools worthy of the effort you put in.
