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 Rangebuster Black Micarta Copper is a traditional pocket knife, made in Solingen, Germany. It has the shapes of the Solinger Hippekniep and its American counterpart: the Sod Buster. A knife that was designed for use in the countryside. This amazing edition is still perfect for all farmers, citizens and outdoor enthusiasts. But it is also great as a gentleman's knife thanks to its excellent finish.
While Hippeknieps and Sod Busters are often enhanced with a slipjoint, this Rangebuster is enhanced with a solid backlock. Slightly more secure, and safer for your fingers. You still open it with two hands. The handle is made from micarta and offer you enough grip. The blade is made from Böhler N690 steel. Stainless, tough, easy to sharpen, and it retains its sharpness well. What more could you ask for?
