| If you want something larger and more sturdy than a skinny pen knife, but dont want a huge knife in your pocket, this is a good choice. The handle is part textured, which you can't see in the photo, making the handle really nice. You can just feel the quality of this knife when you hold it. I have a slightly larger Schrade knife with a black handle and there is no comparison, the Buck is superior. |
Great Keychain Knife

I bought this knife to carry on my keyring for those little cutting jobs that always seem to crop up. I have owned it for about 6 months now, and am very pleased with it.
The knife is the perfect size for a key chain. It doesn't add much bulk to my keyring (house and car keys only), and is light enough that I don't mind carrying it. The knife opens and closes easy, and I can do it with one hand, which is a big plus.
The blade has stayed sharp, although I don't use it all that often, and mostly for cutting open tape and boxes.
I was worried about this knife being robust, but so far it has been great. There is nothing worse than a knife where the blade can move side-to-side when you are using it, but this knife does not have that problem at all. Also the handle is easy to grip, and it feels right when it is in your hand.
Glad I bought it, and I would recommend it to anyone. |
Very nice, very small pocketknife

| Beautifully made and with a real sharp edge. It's as big as a man's index finger (mine, anyway). Weighs next to nothing, but the blade is large enough (and the lockback in strong enough) to open any bag or box you may face. I thought this would be a bit on the rickety side, but it's as strong as a larger knife (which wouldn't fit in your pocket or on your key ring). Every surface is smooth, there's nothing to catch on fabric. Truly a beautiful little object and a working tool. Well-designed, no worries about relying on it. It feels great in my hand. The handles are made of some kind of not-too-hard plastic which provides an excellent grip. I'm really very pleased with this knife, it's even nicer than I thought it was going to be. It put a smile on my face. |

Even though this Buck Knife doesn't have a pocket clip, it cuts very nicely. I would definitely buy another Buck Product after this one knowing their quality and even thinking about buying two more Buck products...

Love It!

| This knife is small and lightweight. It fits in your pocket easily. The part I really like is that it is a lock back instead of the new style of having the lock on the inside where the knife pivots. I find those harder to use. |
