By Jason • Apr 2nd, 2009 • Category: Outdoors

Buck X-Tract multitool is a versatile and highly useful tool that can be used around the house and even be taken along as a camping knife. It also packs a large number of utility tools within a narrow and slim frame.

The Buck X-Tract tool is very sleekly designed, and the best feature is the 3 inch-long stainless drop point blade that cuts away from the main lines of the blade with small inverted ridges that are ideal for cutting hard surfaces. The serrated edges of the blade provide aggressive sawing power that is easily at your fingertips. As mentioned the design is such that the blade can be extracted easily using just a thumb. All of the tools contained inside the Buck X-Tract multitool can be extracted and used just by using your thumb. The convenience afforded by this design feature has tremendous potential because you could be balancing precariously at the top of the step ladder and if your knife doesn’t open easily there, you have a very good chance of tumbling down. The Buck X – Tract saves you from this dilemma.

The pliers also unfold with one thumb and are suitable for small jobs around the house and in the outdoors. The can and bottle opener is small but effective. Don’t let the size fool you into thinking it won’t work. The blade of the Buck outdoor knife is sharp and locks into place with a flick of your thumb. All the tools inside the Buck X-Tract can be safely locked inside.
