BU0286CMS24: 286 Bantam BHW, Mossy Oak Break-Up Country Camo
Buck Knives
To meet the need for a lightweight, safe and affordable knife, the Bantams were developed. Quality and durability were the main goals, as was reliability. The lockback mechanism adds the necessary safety features, and the various camo patterns give them added use in the field, or simply look good for daily carry. Originally produced in China, Buck brought the Bantams to their Post Falls facility for USA production in 2009. Offered in multiple variations, the Bantam has been a best seller from the beginning.
Buck's sleek series of lightweight mid-lockbacks features a host of convenient, easy to use enhancements. From the tip of the blade, through the wide sloping edge, these knives are ready to meet the ever expanding everyday demands. The lightweight ETP handle offers a firm, well-balanced grip. Thumb studs on both sides of the blade provide easy, one hand opening, while the mid-lockback location makes for a smooth closing.
Zytel Handles
A nylon polymer that is lightweight and extremely durable, Zytel can be shaped and textured to provide excellent grip.
Pocket Clip
Includes a pocket clip for easy accessibility and a more secure carry.
Lockback
The lockback system has been used for many decades. It can usually be found on the knife spine and it provides a strong lockup that will wear well.
420HC Stainless Steel
An affordable American-made stainless steel that is easy to maintain, highly rust-resistant, and versatile enough to work on many different knife styles.
Made in USA
This product is USA born and raised.

Rare Buck Disappointment.
Expected this knife to be another winner from Buck. When I first received it opening it was very stiff and difficult but the main problem is the lock. Almost impossible to disengage the lock. Two days of lubricating, broken nails and sore fingers and it's still difficult to close. It's reminiscent of Cold Steel Triad lock stick but worse. Oh well, into the dead drawer it goes.
