Traditional, convenient, and multi-purpose. The Stockman is the largest three-bladed knife available from Buck. The clip point blade is good for detail work, the spey blade is perfect for skinning or sweeping knife strokes and the sheepsfoot blade is perfect for giving a clean cut, especially on a flat cutting surface. The blades are 420J2 which is a general-purpose stainless steel well suited for routine applications, easily sharpened, and offers a great blend of hardness and wear resistance.
