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:
This knife is special; compact, lightweight, good steel with a superb stonewash finish & a incredibly tough locking mechanism combined with one of the hardest woods in the world makes it a reliable tool that holds it's own. This version of the boy scout has become one of our personal favourites.
In terms of construction, the Boker Boy Scout is similar to its siblings, but with more compact dimensions. It has a handle body made of lightweight and durable G10, which is trimmed with handle scales made of exquisite grenadilla wood. The spear point blade made of N690 is opened by a nail cut and locked by a sturdy back lock. This makes the Boy Scout a handy everyday knife that combines elegance and utility in an almost inimitable way. With lanyard loop for attaching a lanyard. Handmade in the Boker Knife Manufactory Solingen.
At Böker they are proud of all knives that are produced in the Solinger Manufaktur.
