Buck Knives 112 Ranger
Classic, compact, and built to last—a field-ready folder with heritage style.
The 112 Ranger embodies the same proven design ethos as the legendary 110 Folding Hunter, but in a more carry-friendly size. It features a ~3″ clip‐point blade, lock-back mechanism, brass bolsters (in most standard versions), and an ebony wood handle (in many models), all made in the USA.
Product Description
A reliable folding knife built for outdoor tasks, everyday carry, and durable use. The 112 Ranger’s 3″ (approximately) blade is crafted from 420HC stainless steel (for standard models) to hold a sharp edge while resisting corrosion. The handle design combines traditional materials—wood scales, brass bolsters—and the lock-back design ensures secure blade deployment. A genuine leather belt sheath is included in most field-oriented models, making it equally at home in the woods or on the belt.

Why It Stands Out
