Very nice knife, sharpe, simple
Love these cheaper work horse buck knives. This is bigger but slimmer the the one it replaced and being slimmer it is more comfortable to carry. Blade is hard i haven't had to sharpen it yet but im nice to my blades and don't try to cut wire with them either, there is another tool for that

Good American made choice for those on a budget
I've had this knife for about 4 months now, so I can definitively say that for the TLDR of my review, at the ~$30 USD price tag for an American made folding knife, you get what you pay for and that there's not really much to complain about in terms of what you are getting.Its a sturdy lockback with no liners, so the action is never going to be as smooth or as fast opening as something with washers or bearings, but with an occasional drop of oil in the pivot it'll still be reasonably quick to open. It will never be quite on the level of something like an Ontario Rat II or a SOG Terminus XR, but it'll still be pretty reasonable easy and quick to open as long as you put a drop in the pivot once or twice a month to keep it lubricated.As for the nylon handles themselves, they're actually pretty darn sturdy, so no need to worry if you're having reservations towards the handles being made of plastic. They have a nice texture to them, not at all what I'd consider to be "aggressive" but with the texturing and the checkering Buck has done with the handles, I doubt anyone would lose their grip unless they sprayed WD-40 on their hands.Also, just as a word of caution for those who like to take their knives apart and customize them, everything on this knife except the pocket clip is pinned/riveted into place, so there's no taking this apart without specialized tools/equipment, and even if you do succeed, taking apart a Buck knife may void the warranty. Their warranty service is pretty darn good though, so I have no doubt that if something happens to be wonky with yours that they will take care of you.The pocket clip is very functional and is able to be unscrewed and swapped for either left or right handed carry, but its gaudy aesthetic may be a detractor to some. Personally I'm neutral, but you may want to take that into consideration if that bothers you. As for the blade, mine arrived perfectly centered from the box and their legendary Bos heat-treat lives up to its reputation amongst knife enthusiasts as I have yet to have to do anything beyond routine touchups.Overall it's a very solid buy, and especially so for the ~$30 price point in a day and age where Chinese and Taiwanese made knives have dominated the budget friendly market and many American knifemakers ignore the budget market in favor of more lavish and premium models oriented at enthusiasts than hardworking people who just want a well made product without spending extra on premium features they don't need or want. Good to see Buck is filling that niche quite nicely.

My new daily knife. Quality knife at an affordable price.
I needed a replacement knife and found online that this was a US- made knife that was actually affordable for daily use. I couldn't be happier with the quality. I liked it so much, I bought a larger version as a gift. Great knife.

poor quality (I will upgrade to a good knife for the money)
This is the second buck pocketknife I have purchased. The first in 2019 (Buck 841 Sprint Pro) for $100.00, it was a nice knife but I had to send it in for repair. I recently lost it so I bought another Buck, the 112 Slim Select for $32.00. I do realize the cost difference from mt first knife, but even with the difference in price this knife is hard opening, it came with a burr on the blade and has the feel of something you would buy at the dollar store. Apparently you have to spend $100.00 or more to get a descent pocket knife from Buck. needless to say I am very disappointed with this knife. ***** I'm upgrading my review to four star, after a few days of owning this knife it did become easier to open, and after I removed the burr from the blade and strophe it on leather and compound it has become very sharp and held it's edge. ( with light usage ) I believe my first evaluation was somewhat skewed because I was used to my old Buck "841 pro". So I have changed my review, but I will also I did order a new Buck 840. and I do like this one as much as the one I lost, they were both 5 star knifes as far as I'm concerned.

Lower your expectations!
This one has a very wonky grind and came out of the box with a giant burr. The burr was easily removed and despite the vastly uneven grind the knife is extremely sharp and a great slicer. Lock up is solid with no blade play and feels good. Handle is a decent size giving a full grip in all positions, may be on the small side for some people though.This is a good light duty knife that you don’t need to be afraid to loose or abuse.

Solid Knife
Great price for everyday carry. Came fairly sharp, had to work it some to get where I wanted it. Like the thumb studs for opening. For price is a great knife

Very good quality but the handle is a bit flimsy
The media could not be loaded. No blade play and has great build quality. Excelent for the price.
