Back-Lock ![The old school lock; for the classy gentleman. Backlock (or: Lockback, Back-Lock, Spinelock) is the mechanism in certain lockable pocketknives. The handle of a Lockback knife contains a mechanism that allows the blade to be locked in place and then unlocked again. The blade of a Lockback knife also has a small notch on the end of the tang. Lockbacks are by design totally ambidextrous – since actuation of the lock is done along the spine, they don't favor one hand over the other. They are also generally very strong – the lock bar is a lot thicker than a typical liner lock, being the same width as the blade stock itself. [Detailed Info]: At their core, backlocks are simply a derivative of the non-locking slipjoint. The lock bar is pinned to the scales of the blade, pivoting in the middle, and a bent spring anchored further back in handle provides upward pressure behind the pivot point, pressing the front of the lock bar downward. In the closed position, the lock bar sits on a ramp in the bottom of the tang which provides a detent for opening. When the blade is opened, the forward portion of the lock bar with its square protusion sits down into a matching square cutout on the top of the blade tang, locking it into position. The cutout on the tang matching the shape of the lock bar means that the lock bar has to be lifted out of the notch to release the blade. The spring bar thus keeps the lock closed until the bar is pressed from behind the pivot point against the spring tension opening the knife.](https://duncansgunmakers.co.uk/catalog/media/info_icon.png) |

Description:
The Böker Mamba Spearpoint is a fancy gentleman's knife for the real gentleman. The blade is enhanced with cool, twisting lines. The hint from the name, Mamba, is easy found in the Mamba snake that lives in Africa. The wavy blade is made from N690 steel. A stainless type of steel from Austria that is easy to maintain. Easy to sharpen and tough enough to handle quite a lot. You open it with two hands and when opened it is locked by a solid backlock.
For the handle Böker outdid itself with stunning desert ironwood. A cool type of wood that makes the knife look very fancy. Towards front of the handle is the blade is completed by nickel silver bolsters. As a cherry on top!
