The **Buck Kalinga 401BRSLE** is a beautiful hunting knife with a classic design, still made by Al Buck himself. It was one of his favourite knives. The Kalinga has been in production since 1969. This knife has a beautiful brass guard and a stunningly smooth handle made from burlap micarta, which is micarta made from jute. Your fingers automatically fall into place in the finger grooves of the handle. The large guard protects your fingers effectively. Even during heavier cutting tasks. The blade has an extra finger groove for more precise cutting tasks.
The blade has an accentuated curvature and is made from CPM S35VN steel. This is a premium stainless steel that is known for its excellent sharpness retention. And the excellent Paul Bos heat treatment further boosts the performance. The hollow grind blade runs all the way through the handle, which is known as full-tang construction. This makes both the handle and the blade stronger.
The Kalinga comes with a leather sheath. Its colour is light brown with a very small hint of dark brown. There is a plastic protective layer in the sheath. The Kalinga plus this sheath is a beautiful combination that is highly valued by collectors and users alike. Naturally, this Buck is made in America.
