Buck Knives Releases Ground Combat Knife Collection

March 1, 2020

Buck Knives, a leader in sports cutlery and Board of Regent member of AKTI, recently announced the release of the Ground Combat collection, featuring tanto style blades and spear point blades.

Designed for use in harsh environments, the Ground Combat Knives (GCK) offer impressive strength and durability. The use of 5160 spring steel increases the blade toughness, level of ductility, and offers excellent fatigue resistance. Field tested in the most demanding conditions, these mission ready tools deliver impressive functionality. Available in tricolored canvas Micarta or black G10 handles, the 891 GCK Spear Point and the 893 GCK Tanto feature 5 ½” steel blades with a Cerakote™ coating, blunt handle design for light hammering tasks and additional combat functions. Each version comes with an injection molded polypropylene MOLLE compatible sheath with multiple carry options.

“The Ground Combat Knives were produced to meet the increasing need for a reliable, indestructible knife that can be used for combat and tactical operations but can also cross over as a reliable outdoor utility tool,” said Chris Brooks, Director of Brand Management for Buck Knives. “Each design was field tested by military operatives in the most demanding conditions and that feedback was helpful in the overall design.”

Each knife was proudly made in the USA. MSRP: $130. For more information on how to order, contact Buck Knives at 800-326-2825.
