Added Choices for Popular New Compact Buck Knives

When Buck Knives introduced the handsome Nobleman frame-lock and the handy little Transport key ring knife, there were several choices of finish and color -- and now there are more to choose from.

The high-tech Nobleman gentleman's knife still has the elegantly sculpted slimline design that proved to be so popular, and the new Model 327CF adds some new features. The textured carbon-fiber graphic handle gives it a distinctive look, and one side has been rubber-coated to soften the feel and provide a sure grip.

Its 2-5/8" drop-point blade is titanium-coated 440A stainless steel and has a thumb-stud for easy one-hand opening. Buck's frame-lock design assures a slim profile, reduces weight, minimizes working parts and keeps the blade safely locked open in use. A titanium-coated clip makes the 3-3/4" knife easy to carry. It weighs only 2.6 oz. MSRP, $32.

At the same time, Buck has added three bright new colors to the Transport, the little one-hand knife for key ring, pocket or purse. The unique SafeSpinTM blade rotation lets you open the blade with one finger. Its 1-1/4" drop-point blade locks open for safety and you're sure to find the bottle opener useful. Closed, the Transport is 2-1/4" and it weighs less than one ounce. The three new colors for the molded nylon handle are Metallic Blue, Lime Green and Pink. MSRP, $20.

Blades for these and all Buck knives are finished with Buck's advanced Edge2xTM technology, which makes the blade sharper out of the box, hold an edge longer and easier to re-sharpen. And they are backed by Buck's unconditional lifetime warranty.
