Our verdict

A light, slim take on a classic lockback-style folder for everyday pocket carry, backed by a lifetime warranty. The nylon handle trades the traditional look for low weight, and the lock type is not stated.

Overview

Clipping to a pocket, belt or bag, the Buck Slim Select is a lighter, modern version of the classic Ranger folding knife. A stainless clip point blade folds into a grippy nylon handle with a deep carry clip.

Low weight and a deep carry clip make it easy to forget in a pocket until needed. The nylon scales lack the feel of wood or brass, and the listing never names the locking mechanism.

Who it's for

Campers, anglers and home users get a light knife for daily chores and trail tasks. People wanting a heavy hard-use folder or a one-hand flipper should look at other designs.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Very light for its blade length
  • Deep carry clip rides low
  • Corrosion-resistant stainless blade
  • Handcrafted in the USA
Cons
  • Lock type not listed
  • Nylon feels less refined than wood
  • Clip side options not stated
  • No sheath included

Performance notes

Edge retention and corrosion resistance come from the stainless steel and its heat treatment, so the blade tolerates damp outdoor use with simple wiping. The clip point gives a fine tip for detail cuts, while the light handle limits leverage on heavy prying.
