It is all about the steel. In 2024, MagnaCut has been included on the new Buck Knives Alpha Elite Series, knives that can withstand the rigors of hunting and heavy outdoor use.
The Alpha Elite Series consists of three different knives, the Alpha Scout Elite, the Alpha Hunter Elite, and the Alpha Guide Elite. This iteration of the Alpha Series features drop point MagnaCut steel blades. MagnaCut steel is ideal for hunting. It has superior corrosion resistance, edge retention, and toughness, meaning less knife upkeep in the field and longer usage. All three models have removable handles for easy cleaning. The machine-textured, black G10 handle allows optimal grip in wet conditions. Each comes with a black Kydex sheath with rivets, locking multi-position belt attachment, adapter plate, and hardware. The Alpha Elite knives also have a lanyard hole and come with the Buck Knives Forever Warranty.
The Alpha Scout Elite is the perfect knife for detailed work, with a blade length of only 2.8 inches, on large game like elk, moose and deer or small game. The high-ground blade shape moves easily through material without bunching. Jimping along the blade spine makes it easy to choke-up on the blade for delicate cuts. The textured handle provides a strong grip even when wet. The Alpha Scout Elite retails for $219.99.
The Alpha Hunter Elite is a larger version of the Alpha Scout knife. The Hunter Elite comes in at 3.625 inches in length and weighs 5.2 ounces. It has the same high-panel flat grind that adds strength to the blade allowing you to cut with confidence. The MagnaCut steel will hold an edge through the field dressing process without needing to re-sharpen. The Alpha Hunter Elite retails for $259.99.
The Alpha Guide Elite is a multi-purpose field knife. It features a long blade edge with an upswept drop point blade. It has the same jimping along the spine as the other Alpha knifes to make it easy to choke-up on the blade. The Alpha Guide Elite is 9 inches long and weighs 5.4 ounces. The retail price is $259.99.
