Buck 285 Bantam BLW Knife — Medium Folding (stainless-steel blade, textured synthetic)
Lightweight strength with everyday control—carry-ready Buck performance in a mid-sized frame.
This mid-size Bantam BLW folding knife is crafted with a stainless-steel utility blade and a durable textured synthetic handle, built for confident everyday tasks in the shop, at work, or in the field. Featuring a control-oriented drop-point profile, slim pocket carry, and secure lock-up, it delivers a rugged, no-nonsense cutter you’ll actually use.
Product Description
A rugged, budget-friendly everyday-carry folder made with a stainless blade and tough synthetic handle for durability and easy maintenance. Smooth manual opening and a solid lock deliver reliable control for boxes, cord, tape, and light field chores. The balanced, mid-sized format offers more grip and leverage than the BBW while staying pocket-friendly.

Why It Stands Out
The BLW hits a sweet spot of light weight and working leverage—more purchase than the BBW without bulk. Textured scales improve grip, and the straightforward mechanics keep it dependable, serviceable, and affordable.
