Buck Knives Bantam BBW 2.75 inch Folding Knife - Looking for a durable and stylish knife? The Bantam BBW has a mid lockback design and ridges at the top for added grip. These sleek, lightweight knives feature thumb studs on both sides of the blade for easy one hand opening and a mid-lock back location for smooth closing. The textured handle offers a firm and well-balanced grip. Bantams are available in a variety of handle patterns! Lockback folding knives have a mechanism that lock the blade in the open position, activated by opening the blade all the way. A lock back gets its name from a rocker (rocking lock bar) partially visible on top of the knife. Opening the blade causes the rocker to lock against the blade so it locks open. Pushing down on the rocker on top of the handle releases it and enables the user to close the blade. Lockbacks require two hand closing, though some are one hand openers.
