5.0 out of 5 stars Great looking knife, if a tad small, January 30, 2009

This is a smaller knife (the blade is under 4.5cm), and is pretty thin. The small size makes opening it one-handed a bit tricky, but it is possible. It is a frame-lock, so closing it one-handed is also hard but possible.

I love the mirror finish of the handle and blade. It has a rough area near the blade on the handle around the joint, but aside from that everything on this knife is a smooth mirror finish. The back side of the handle (opposite where the blade goes into the handle) has a black plastic spacer between the metal halves of the handle.

There is no keychain or lanyard hole, and the black plastic spacer means that you can't put a string around one of the screws either.

Overall a very nice looking smaller pocketknife.

3.0 out of 5 stars Buck 326 scholar frame lock, July 14, 2011

This review is from: Buck 326 Scholar Frame Lock Folding Knife (Sports)

I own both the Buck 326 (scholar frame lock made in China) and the Buck 525 (Gent lock back made in the USA). The Buck 326 Scholar is a decent knife. It has one glaring flaw, at least for the way I use these knives. I use these knives as a daily carry gentleman's knife. I find that the Buck 326's opening assist studs dig into my leg, making it very uncomfortable to carry. The 326 Scholar is also about double the width of the Gent, making it more visible with dress pants. The Gent is the perfect size and shape to make you forget that you are carrying it, yet it's ready for use for many small jobs that arise. The Gent also out-classes the Scholar in looks and design. If you're looking for a small daily carry gentleman's knife that goes well with casual or suit pants, I recommend the Buck 525 Gent. The Gent is one of those products that makes you feel intelligent for buying it every time you use it.

Warning: If you let someone use either the Buck 326 or the 525, make sure you get it back. These knives have invisible legs, which is not noted in the description.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Everyday Knife, December 22, 2009

This is a great everyday knife. The blade is very sharp "out of the box", and its small size and light weight make it perfect for carrying around in a pocket.
