      Comments about Buck Transport:

      This looks like a small knife that may not get used much, but it's become my #1 choice in day to day everything. It barely registers in my pocket, but the unique finger roll opening is so quick and easy that I find myself using it in situations where I could do without a knife (opening the cereal bag for the kids, breaking down a box, etc). I was hesitant to get this knife since I had just purchased a bigger blade for everyday use, but this has become the one I miss the most when I don't have any blade on me.

        One of those impulse buys but, I love this little knife. It's almost always in my pocket. The bottle opener works very well. The blade is small but, it's usually all you need. The push button lock keeps it from opening up in your pocket. Very easy to open and close handed.

        I use it mostly as a bottle opener. I wouldn't say it's the most practical knife. But, I will say it is compact, and it fits comfortably in the hip pocket of my jeans. It has a small blade, so it's only good for small jobs. Overall: It's handy. For the price, it's great!

            The perfect knife that I was looking for. Feels very sturdy and compact enough to keep on a keychain. Other knives too big from what I've seen at REI. Have had it for 4 weeks and has been very useful. Don't expect a knife for heavy use and cutting but great for many everyday light uses such as opening boxes, cutting tags, and slicing. The locking mechanism is a plus to prevent accidentally opening and closing and safety for the kids.

            Comments about Buck Transport:

            I use this knife a lot and it's always what I look for when I need to open a box or think to throw it in my pocket. The only issue I've had is when I was cutting something a little tougher where I needed a full grip on the knife. I have accidentally pushed the button to close the blade . It's more a case of using it for something I shouldn't use it for.
            I still think it is an great little knife.

              This is a great little knife for the price. With a few minutes of practice it is very easy to open one-handed. It fits in small hands well and doesn't bulge-out pants in a pocket. Stays locked open or closed. It cuts lots of common stuff easily (I wouldn't try prying with it however) and could probably be used as a last ditch protection device. It also works very well (the non-blade side) as a striker on mish-metal.

              I liked this because it was small and cheap ;). And it does work for most everyday type things, but the blade just feels dull. Even when I'm cutting down boxes or something. It is convenient, but if you're looking for a sharp blade, I wouldn't get it.
