Buck Knives0325 Colleague Stainless Steel Folding Pocket Knife

Really nice small pocket knife that fits nicely in your pocket with no bulge and is razor sharp. Good quality that you would expect from Buck.

If you don't want a lot of bulk in your pocket this is a good little knife. Pretty easy to sharpen and not too expensive so when I loose it in the pasture or the hay field I don't feel too bad!

This little knife is terrific. It's small enough that it doesn't crowd your pocket, so you can carry it all the time.I've carried one for years until I lost it and bought this replacement. It's the same great quality. Its stainless steel construction won't rust or deteriorate in any way.I use it for all kinds of everyday tasks, including opening packages and cutting tags off new clothing.It's so familiar, I can open and close it with one hand. The locking blade is safe and easy to use.Friends who know me often ask to use my knife. They know I keep it handy, and I keep it honed to a fine edge.You'll love this little pocket companion.

This is a sleek, well built little pocket knife - what one would expect of a Buck knife. Definitely recommend.

I love small knives that fit in my 5th pocket. I misplaced (lost?) my last one recently and have really missed it. I figured to try a Buck 325 this time around and, while it has its flaws, I don't think it was a bad decision. It's a small, stainless knife with a drop point blade. Sharp. Super sharp. And everything is tight. Possibly, too tight. The thumb studs for one handed opening (both sides for you lefties) takes a lot of fussing and effort. The lock is also very hard to manage single handedly. I'll be working to loosen both, but, so long as you're ready for it, you'll get what you pay for.The one thing that I miss on this knife is a pocket clip. With a pocket clip, I'd probably assume that the knife would loosen up and have given it 5 stars.

I've had a couple of these and a 326 Scholar (same except finish). They've all been great quality Chinese-made Bucks. I doubt they would be different at all if made in USA. For me, this is the ideal size pocket knife and is easily operated with one hand. If you're not familiar with this knife, it's thinner than a standard linerlock because it has no covers or bolsters so the liner is the outside of the knife. This design can also be seen in a Gerber STL 2.0. The thin profile makes it much more pocketable. I didn't look up the steel, but it's reasonably hard but not as hard as the old Buck fixed blades and classic lock backs. It has a good balance between durability and sharpening ease. I lost one for a year outdoors (Southern California) and when I found it it had one small and very faint rust discoloration that wiped right off. (And it wasn't on the blade.) It's a good value at this price and would provide me with many decades of use if I could only keep track of it. (I won't ding Buck on the issue of my carelessness :)

Super handy. I keep it in my pocket at all times for boxes and random tasks.

Nice pocket knife. U
