Buck Knives 112 Slim Select Folding EDC Knife, 3” Pocket Knife Blade, Nylon Handle, 420HC Stainless Steel Modified Clip Point Folding Blade, Made in the USA, O. D. Green, 2.5 oz

This is a great knife for the money. It is extremely well-made with a great design. The 112 Buck is a good knife for the money. The handle is good too, with sure grip control in wet or dry conditions. The knife is lightweight and easy to carry anywhere. I would highly recommend it. It's made in America too.

Buck 112 Slim Select. What a fantastic American made knife. Buck is solid. This is not just a knife but a tool. Great heritage here, sharp out of the box, nice center and lockup. Knife nerds may bash the 420 hc steel but it is solid for skinning and cutting. It sharpens easy and lightweight and carries easy. For the price you should have two of these. The orange color pops. Great for carrying in the field like it should be. Skin a buck or fillet some fish with it. Get on it !!

I've had this knife for about 4 months now, so I can definitively say that for the TLDR of my review, at the ~$30 USD price tag for an American made folding knife, you get what you pay for and that there's not really much to complain about in terms of what you are getting. Its a sturdy lockback with no liners, so the action is never going to be as smooth or as fast opening as something with washers or bearings, but with an occasional drop of oil in the pivot it'll still be reasonably quick to open. It will never be quite on the level of something like an Ontario Rat II or a SOG Terminus XR, but it'll still be pretty reasonable easy and quick to open as long as you put a drop in the pivot once or twice a month to keep it lubricated. As for the nylon handles themselves, they're actually pretty darn sturdy, so no need to worry if you're having reservations towards the handles being made of plastic. They have a nice texture to them, not at all what I'd consider to be "aggressive" but with the texturing and the checkering Buck has done with the handles, I doubt anyone would lose their grip unless they sprayed WD-40 on their hands. Also, just as a word of caution for those who like to take their knives apart and customize them, everything on this knife except the pocket clip is pinned/riveted into place, so there's no taking this apart without specialized tools/equipment, and even if you do succeed, taking apart a Buck knife may void the warranty. Their warranty service is pretty darn good though, so I have no doubt that if something happens to be wonky with yours that they will take care of you. The pocket clip is very functional and is able to be unscrewed and swapped for either left or right handed carry, but its gaudy aesthetic may be a detractor to some. Personally I'm neutral, but you may want to take that into consideration if that bothers you. As for the blade, mine arrived perfectly centered from the box and their legendary Bos heat-treat lives up to its reputation amongst knife enthusiasts as I have yet to have to do anything beyond routine touchups. Overall it's a very solid buy, and especially so for the ~$30 price point in a day and age where Chinese and Taiwanese made knives have dominated the budget friendly market and many American knifemakers ignore the budget market in favor of more lavish and premium models oriented at enthusiasts than hardworking people who just want a well made product without spending extra on premium features they don't need or want. Good to see Buck is filling that niche quite nicely.

I wear this knife everyday! It’s very well made, have an easy and smooth action and the blade holds an edge for a long time.

I got this because it's half the weight of regular Buck 112, which is one of my favorite knives but heavy for its size. This 112 Slim Select trades one flaw for another: weight is no longer a problem, but there's enough friction and spring tension to make full one-handed opening with the thumb stud uncertain and often unsuccessful. It's easier just to open it by pulling out the blade with your other hand, no nail nick needed. Not a bad knife aside from this, and like other Buck knives I have this one came with an excellent, sharp factory edge. EDIT: I just went ahead and took out the thumb stud altogether as it's a press fit that can be pulled out with pliers. This way I don't absentmindedly try to use it, only get it halfway open, and then end up fumbling or cutting myself. I like the knife better this way.

Sharp and smooth out of the box! Great edge, quality steel and solid lock! Perfect blade thickness, and shaved my arm hair out the box! Easy to open, with a smooth axis. The green color is rich and looks great. It's the perfect functional tool knife for deep carry, in any situation. Didn't break the bank, but with a lifetime warranty and solid build quality like Buck, you know it won't let you down when it's time to use it !

It's my daily carry knife, and it works well when I need one. The size is just right, and the clip is short, which prevents it from getting caught on things. The knife is held together with rivets, not screws, which mean it will not loosen up over time, which I really hate with knives held together with screws. Now, if it came with a tracking device so I could easily find it when I lose it, it would be perfect! ;) But at the current price, I don't mind buying another when I lose one.

Book makes a great quality knife and I'm very happy with quality and it's like every other book I've ever owned reliable.

Sehr gutes Messer in bekannter Buck Qualität

Buen corte, buena calidad, ligera,bolsilleta, con clip de posición variable y buen precio

Funciona muy bien. Leí una reseña que decía que la hoja está suelta en la dirección vertical, pero no he encontrado que eso sea cierto en la mía. Me gusta mucho que el clip se pueda cambiar de lado o quitar. Un posible punto débil es la construcción con remaches, por lo que no se puede ajustar fácilmente; espero que eso no se convierta en un problema. Viene afilada de fábrica y tiene garantía de por vida. En general, un gran producto a primera vista.

Sehr schnell geliefert, die Ware top und auch so verpackt, gerne wieder !

Produkt pünktlich angekommen und entspricht voll meinen Erwartungen Danke
