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:
Four-ty; for You! Since 1985, the Boker Scout has been a reliable companion for everyday hunters and adventurers. In 2025, the series is celebrating its 40th birthday and is marking the occasion with this exclusive collector's knife in a festive guise.
Invited to the big celebration are 99 selected knife enthusiasts who will be able to personally shake the handle of the jubilarian and serenade the noble blade. A richly laid table awaits the guests with a clippoint blade hand-forged by South African knifemaker Bertie Rietveld from non-stainless Damascus in the captivating Dragonskin pattern and a handle body made from sintered nickel silver with white bone scales.
As a special feature, the handle has an engraved nature motif of trees and mountains on both sides to match the name (Scout), while the front is also adorned with a banderole bearing the anniversary numbers. As usual, the pocket knife is opened using the nail nick and locked using the back lock. 40 years of the Boker Scout - traditionally timeless! Handmade in the Boker manufactory in Solingen.
Contrary to the information in our Special Spring Summer 2025, this is not stainless Damascus. We apologize for the error.
