Buck 327CFS Nobleman 2-5/8" Carbon Fiber Folding Pocket Knife

The 327 Nobleman is an elegantly sculpted, slimline gent’s knife. Contributing to the slim profile while reducing weight is the frame-lock design that keeps the blade locked open with a channelled part. A long-time favourite, the Nobleman's sleek design feels as good as it looks. Length 3 3/4" closed. Imported
Frame Lock
A frame lock functions like a liner lock, but the locking mechanism is a section of the handle "frame" on the side of the knife. The frame lock is a channelled lock arm that moves inward to lock against the blade when the knife is open. Pushing outward releases it from its locked position so the user can close the blade. Benefits are fewer moving parts and lighter weight. Frame locks are typically one-hand open, one-hand close.
