The legendary BuckMaster 184 Survival Knife is currently conceived and designed specifically for the Navy SEAL Team in 1980. He was created by CJ Buck (CEO of Buck Knives) and designed a small business, Qual-A-Tec, in 1981 in California. The BuckMaster is the American icon of the coltellis that emerged in the '80s and has contributed to the creation of the famous M9 bayonetta of the American army. The production was 2600 examples all'anno.

The brand new model, coming from the private collection, comes from the first production, dating back to 1984. Globally in perfect condition, only damaged and used. Only deprived of scatola.

Note: The characteristics, brief, are data of the presence of due arpioni/ganci smontabili a vite. The function of the quest is simple ancoraggio. This coltello may be infatti used as the lancio's gancio fissando una corda all'anello present sul pomello. The product guarantees a tenuta of fine arpioni at 600 libbre. I Seals della Marina, nello specifico, avevano richiesto un coltello che potesse essere usato sott'acqua per poter ancorare i mezzi ad un punto de fissaggio subacqueo, ed ecco il reason della totale costruzione en acciaio.
