Buck Knives 379 Solo Single-Blade Folding Pocket Knife with Wood Handle

I bought this knife for my husband. He lost his pocket knife. So he was happy to get this. He likes it very much. It is super sharp and is great knife to carry in the pockets or purse.

Great

Great edc

About the width of my palm - so not so small that I'll fumble it and too no large that it won't fit in my pocket. Works great! Not cheap looking.

Cute, fits in the pocket nicely, the blade is a bit flimsy so i wish it was thicker. Great for opening boxes or letters.

Solid small knife that you will actually carry around and use. After trying different multi tools and gadgets I never carry around because they are heavy and bulky, I realized most of the time I really just need something to cut open a package, box, tape or zip tie. This tiny knife has a beautiful classic design, the folding/locking mechanism feel nice and solid, and comes very sharp. It is so light you will forget you are even carrying it.

I love these little knifes, very sharp and hold up to my use.

I've been a buck knife fan since I received my first one as a kid. They have maintained their quality over time and I love the fact that they're an American company.I'm skeptical of products made in China. So why did I buy the Solo? Part of it was curiosity and part of it was because I wanted to train some young boys in the local troop on knife safety and get them whittling and wanted to see if these Chinese made knives are worth getting even though the cost is less. The Solo is cheaper than the USA made Buck knives. I want to get quality knives to train with but I also know that boys will be boys and the knives are going to get destroyed; I am hesitant in putting the more expensive Bucks in the boys' hands until they learn to respect what they're given enough to take care of it. Once the boys "graduate", I'll get them a real U.S. made Buck for them to keep - hopefully for the rest of their lives.The Solo is made in China. Not only does it carry Buck's name but Buck stands behind their product with a lifetime warranty. And it shows.The wood, bolsters, and blade are good quality. I'm sure you've experienced how cheaper blades fail to hold an edge, start grinding as you open them over time, start losing their luster sooner, etc. It's obvious that Buck has set some standards for the knives that carry their name. Even if these knives are produced in China, these are not cheap knockoffs. I hate to admit it but these are good knives that are worthy enough to carry the Buck name.That said, I'll only buy the China made knives as trainers. If I'm carrying around a Buck knife or giving one as a gift, it's going to be U.S. made.I have to admit that I grudgingly gave this a five. I don't like the fact that it's made in China, but I have to admit that it's a pretty nice little knife.
