Additional Info
•  Field Test Report
•  Buyer's Guide
The Alpha Fixed knife sports a 4-1/4" guthook blade crafted of strong S30V steel with rosewood scales. Developed by Crucible Steel, S30V is made up of metallic powders fused together under intense pressure and heat. It is tempered under extremely high temperatures then cooled in a cryogenic freezer. The resulting metal delivers a fine combination of edge retention (45% greater than 420HC), flexibility and hardness (59-61 Rockwell) while remaining easy to sharpen with conventional stones. This steel also has a high chromium content for oxidation resistance. For even greater corrosion resistance, each knife is treated with a titanium aluminum nitride coating. Our field testing and independent Cutlery Allied Trade Research Association tests prove these knives outperform those crafted with other blade metals. Comes with a leather sheath. Made in USA.
Overall length: 8-1/2".
Weight: 7.2 oz.

Disappointed, November 18, 2009
By Anonymous from IL

"Got the knife and used it for one doe I harvested in IL. First deer I used on this new knife I just purchased. After using the gutting hook on this 1st doe, it got dull and did not perform well on the 2nd deer I got the next day. Knife looks good but dulls very quick! Disappointed with quality. Will not be purchasing again. Don't know how I can resharpen the hook part. Also, I would not recommend this knife at all."

Cherry Knife..., October 28, 2009
By DaMolokaiHunta from Molokai, Hawaii

"I recently bought the BUCK Alaskan Guide Series Alpha knife from Cabelas. From the first moment I took it out of the beautiful high quality leather sheath, I could see the workmanship and time put into the design of this knife. From the high quality steel to the beautiful wood handle. Its almost too nice to use. The weight and feel of this knife in your hand is perfect. Not to mention the edge of this blade is razor sharp and will easily cut through any game you might take down. It holds the edge really well and stays sharp long after the first use. This knife is what we call in Hawaii "CHERRY" and is well worth the price. This is definitly the last hunting knife you will need to buy for yourself. Im thinking about getting a few more as gifts this holiday season. Much mahalo to BUCK and Cabelas for putting out this awsome knife.

Alohaz, Da Molokai Hunta

Quality at its finest, April 3, 2009
By 123Robert from Missouri

"I really looked at this knife for a long time before buying it. Buck is such a great name and they make great pruducts. I wanted a knife for deer hunting and caping that also had a gut hook. The quality is spectacular and it has a great edge to it."

Great Knife!, January 12, 2009
By Smokenmirrorss from West Virginia

"This is a beautiful knife. Very functional feel to hold and comes out of the box with an exceptional edge (will cut paper). I bought this as a gift for my Son thinking it will be something he will keep his entire hunting career and maybe pass on some day. I am very pleased with the look and feel for the dollars."

Great Knife, December 1, 2008
By CDS3001 from Tennessee Hunter

"Have just had this knife couple of weeks but have field dressed several deer already and it seems to have held its edge so far. Gut hook works like a charm. Only regret is handle and sheath are so nice I feel bad about getting them dirty."

Excalibur, November 24, 2008
By westcentralILLhunter from Galesburg Illinois

"A fellow deer hunter buddy of mine nicknamed this knife Excalibur because it is so sharp. You will be able to easily shave the hair off the back of your hand with this knife. I am not kidding. We were surprised when it did this with not much effort. A nice knife to use that has a good look to it. The gut hook is also very sharp and works well. Cleaning game is like using a razor blade. Cleaning ducks to deer is very easy. Skin separates simply from meat with light slices. I am buying this knife for my buddy so he will have his own Excalibur. When he said that a knife like this could be passed on to your son as a family heirloom, it made it very hard for me to not get him this knife as a Xmas gift after helping me so much with my first deer hunt this year. You cannot go wrong here. Well worth the money."

Unbelieveable blade, August 19, 2008
By Hoorah from Oakland, CA

"When I opened the box and slid this knife into my palm, I was a little disappointed in the both the size and weight. Normally preferring a blade with more substance, I nearly boxed it back up for an exchange. That was when the beauty of the rosewood handle caught my eye. The handle fits nicely in my palm and even though it is a bit light, you don't get too much of a feel like something is missing. Quite the contrary actually. You almost feel like you are cheating on some exam, without really knowing how. I then put the blade through numerous practical and unpractical tests to gauge use and sharpness. This knife indeed passed every sharpness test I with flying colors. Only one test remains: that of gutting and skinning out a deer. That should come very soon, although I have every confidence that this blade will be up to the task and then some. Highly recommended!"

It's great for all aspects of game processing from the field to the kitchen, this thing rocks...don't wait another minute, just buy it and start patting yourself on the back for finally making a wise choice!"

Alaskan Guide Series Alpha Fixed Truly Top Notch!, January 1, 2008
By FBerg from Del Rio, Texas

"This is truly worth the money you will pay for a quality knife. I have used it quite a few times and each time I pull it out I know it will do the job. No drawbacks at all. I like it so much I purchased another one of the alaskan series knives. I like quality...as is evidenced by the Carl Schleiper German fixed blade I own and this one is on the same level in terms of quality. Try it...you will love it!"
