New Buck/Mayo Kaala TM Is Light, Fast, Agile...and Elegant
The ultimate in ultra-smooth, slim-profile fixed-bade knives, the new Buck/Mayo Kaala delivers superior performance along with the beauty and grace of a Tom Mayo design.
Made of S30V steel, this durable skeletal knife is 6-3/4” overall, with a 3-1/8” drop-point blade. Four lightening holes help keep the weight to just 1.9 oz. and they are lanyard-sized so the one at the butt can be attached to a parachute cord. The 1/8” thick blade has been heat-treated by Paul Bos to a Rockwell hardness of Rc60..jpg)
The Model 151 comes with a dual-position molded nylon sheath that holds the knife securely in place and has a lanyard hole, complete with a 30” stainless steel chain to carry around your neck. Its quick availability makes the Kaala ideally suited to tactical applications, and also proves useful for serious outdoorsmen, and anyone looking for a lightweight but rugged knife with easy access.
For 25 years, custom knifemaker Tom Mayo has been known for the perfection and balance of his designs, and this latest collaborative effort with Buck Knives is another example of how he turns artistry into practical solutions.
Adding to the effectiveness of the blade is Buck's advanced Edge2xTM technology that makes the blade sharper out of the box, hold an edge longer and easier to re-sharpen. To see all of Buck's growing catalog of knives, visit their web site: www.buckknives.com |
