The Buck 590 Paradigm Assist Knife features an innovative Shift Mechanism paired up with Buck's ASAP assisted technology.
Just swing or "glide" the bolster up and then pull the flipper tab. As you do this, the assist takes over and gets the satin finished, drop point CPM-S35VN blade out quick. Once it is open, you can "close" the bolster. The bolster acts as a secondary lock in both the open and closed positions.
The handle on this model is Brown textured G10.
The tip up, r/l clip is stainless steel with a graphite black cerakote finish.
Made in the USA.
