The Frost Cutlery Razor Lockback has a mirror finish stainless razor blade in a buffalo horn handle with nickel silver bolsters, closing to 3.88 inches.
The razor blade shape is a straight edge with a squared-off end rather than the curved belly and point of a clip point. It came from the straight razor and cuts on a flat plane, which suits controlled slicing where a point would catch. Buffalo horn is genuine horn, so each handle has its own banding and translucency, and it warms in the hand in a way synthetics do not.
Horn should not be soaked or left in a hot car, where it can dry and crack, but it takes a polish that shows depth no plastic matches. A lockback holds the blade with a spine-mounted bar, which is worth having on a blade with no point to warn you where it ends. Explore more Lockback Knives.
