Tobias suggested that someone should start a discussion on 5 inch lockback hunters. Since no one else has, I will. But since I have two folding hunters and only one of them is a lockback, I will open it up to all 5 inch folding hunters.Here is my…Continue

Comment by Tobias Gibson on April 29, 2015 at 21:25: I'm knid of surprised that no one has started a discussion of the 5 inch Lockback Folding Hunter, the knife that pretty much saved Buck! I don't own a Buck 110 and unless someone is plans on giving me one I probably never will! It just isn't high on my list of knives I have to own. That said, I've somehow managed to accumulate quite a few 5 inch lockbacks Maybe someone who owns a few Buck 110s can start a discussion on the pattern. But they should do it soon or some Schrade fan will beat them to the punch!

Here are a few of my non-Buck folding hunters.

Left to Right:

Bear & Son BSA Folding hunter

China BSA bear-head Folding Hunter

Rough Rider "Once in a Blue Moon" Folding Hunter

Klein Tools (USA) Folding Hunter

Unbranded "Pakistan" Folding Hunter, White Celluloid

Gerber "Gator" Folding Hunter

Unbranded "Pakistan" Folding Hunter (wood and brass)

I bought the Bear & Son and the Rough Rider. All the others I just acquired by happen stance!

Below Same Knives with the blades open.

I'm sure some will argue the Gerber Gator isn't a true 5 inch folding Hunter.
