Description
The Buck Knives 112 Slim Select is a modernized, everyday carry (EDC) evolution of the legendary 112 Ranger. Designed for those who love the classic Buck lockback design but desire a lighter, more pocket-friendly profile, the Slim Select trims the bulk without sacrificing a drop of performance. Featuring a sleek, highly durable glass-reinforced nylon handle in a tactical OD Green finish, this knife is incredibly lightweight and virtually disappears in your pocket until you need it.
The core of the 112 Slim Select is its razor-sharp, 3-inch clip-point blade forged from Buck's trusted 420HC stainless steel. Enhanced by the industry-leading Paul Bos heat treatment, it delivers exceptional edge retention, corrosion resistance, and ease of sharpening. Updated for the modern user, this reimagined classic now includes dual thumb studs for swift one-handed deployment and a reversible deep-carry stainless steel pocket clip. The 112 Slim Select is the perfect blend of traditional American craftsmanship and contemporary EDC convenience.
How To Use
-
Opening: Grasp the handle securely. Use your thumb to push against the thumb stud, rotating the blade outward in a smooth arc until the lockback mechanism engages with a distinct "click."
-
Cutting: Leverage the curved belly of the clip-point blade for slicing, or use the fine, sharp tip for precise detail work and piercing. Always cut away from your body.
-
Closing: Hold the knife firmly, keeping your fingers clear of the blade's path. Depress the lock release bar located on the spine (back) of the handle. Use your other hand to gently fold the blade closed.
-
Maintenance: Keep the pivot point clean from pocket lint and debris. Apply a drop of lightweight oil periodically for smooth action. Wipe the blade clean and dry after use to maintain the stainless steel finish.
