SHOT Day 4: Buck Part 2: Classic Slipjoints Return Alongside New Modern Folders

We promised more Buck SHOT Show news yesterday, and here it is: the company is bringing back two of their Made in the US traditional knives, the Stockman and the Cadet, and also rolling out two new entry level modern flippers.

Stockman and Cadet

These two knives are closely related – that’s easy to tell at a glance. The Stockman is the full-size model, and its name doesn’t originate with Buck: the ‘Stockman’ is one of the classic slipjoint knife patterns. It is a three-blade slippie, containing three similar-sized blades. On Buck’s Stockman, the loadout consists of a clip point, a spey blade (similar to a bullnose drop point), and a sheepsfoot – utility driven shapes that have long been associated with life on the farm (although, as we’ve warned before, do not look up the original purpose of spey blades…)

The Cadet, despite the soldierly name, is simply a smaller version of the Stockman. Both of these returning classics feature simple 420HC stainless steel – the same steel that is used on the entry-level, standard version of the Buck 110 Folding Hunter. Cover options will be lighter granadillo wood, darker ebony wood, and three different colors of polymer.

714 Stinger

Meanwhile, over in Modern Folder Land, another incoming piece is the Stinger. This is a 3 inch-bladed everyday carry user, made from D2 blade steel and built with a stainless steel frame lock mechanism. The shape of the Stinger’s blade is a nice, wide drop point with a handsome mid-size swedge on the spine – nothing too surprising here, just a well-appointed workhorse, although a carbon fiber inlay on show side aluminum scale gives it a bit of pizzaz.

713 Ruckus

If you prefer something a bit larger, here’s the Stinger’s companion piece, the 3.5 inch-bladed Ruckus. Although it differs in visual particulars, the Ruckus checks the same functional and material boxes as its little brother, including aluminum scales (albeit without an inlay), a flipper deployment, and a stainless steel frame lock. D2 blade steel is once again on tap, so edge life will be right on the money for…well, the money. Both the Ruckus and the Stinger will be hitting shelves with a sub-$50 street price.
