More Key Features of The Trailhawk 288 Folding Knife
Snap-Lock Precision: Blade Backlock Opening
The blade lock-back opening system features a strong back spring that provides controlled resistance as the blade opens. The spring gradually builds tension by pulling the blade open using a nail nick. Once the blade reaches a certain point, the spring swiftly snaps it into a fully open and locked position, ensuring a secure and reliable hold.
Smooth & Secure: Blade Backlock Closing
To close the blade, press the back lock handle’s handle’s butt to release it. Then, with a slight push of the palm, the spring smoothly snaps the blade into the handle. This design ensures the fast and safe storage of the blade.
Strong All-Leather Sheath
The sturdy all-leather friction sheath perfectly complements the knife, offering a classic belt carry. It keeps the blade secure while allowing smooth and quick access when needed. This sheath is designed for protection and style, ensuring your knife remains safe and ready for any adventure.

Care Tips for the Trailhawk 288 Folding Knife
Always hand-wash and dry your knife to keep it sharp and in good condition. Avoid dishwashers, as high heat and strong soap can weaken materials and dull the blade. To maintain the edge, use a quick sharpener for minor touch-ups and a sharpening stone for deep maintenance.
Regularly applying 100% food-grade mineral oil prevents rust and keeps the blade working smoothly. Mineral oil also reduces friction and wear, helping knives with moving parts work correctly.
For long-term storage, thoroughly wash and dry the knife, then apply a thin layer of mineral oil. Wrap it in plastic and store it separately from the sheath. These steps will keep your knife in excellent condition, ready for any adventure.
Legal Compliance Made Simple – We’ve Got You Covered!
Compliance Made Easy – We’re Here to Help
At Red Duck Knives, we understand that navigating knife laws can be tricky, and we’re here to make the process as smooth as possible for our retail partners.
Laws regulating folders, fixed blades, throwables, automatics, balisongs, gravity knives, swords, and self-defense tools vary across state, local, and federal levels. While we make a good-faith effort to identify and notify you of any restricted items before shipping, compliance ultimately falls on the retailer. The Federal Switchblade Act of 1958 also prohibits automatic knives on reservations, and local laws may have additional restrictions.
To help you stay in line, we review the laws in your area before shipping your order. We ensure that the products you receive follow the laws. However, given the complexity and frequent changes in laws at the state, county, and city levels, we encourage retailers to stay informed about their local requirements.
Flexible Returns for Compliance Concerns
Suppose local laws prevent you from selling a knife in your order. In that case, you may return it for a full credit within 30 days of delivery, provided it remains in its original, unused condition.
Your Responsibility, Our Support
By buying from Red Duck Knives, you agree to be at least 18 years old. You also agree to follow all local laws. We strive to help you comply with the rules, but as a retailer, I must adhere to local laws when selling, possessing, or distributing Red Duck Knives products. I also have to follow any rules about how to ship the products. I understand that Red Duck Knives is not liable for any legal issues related to these matters.
We value your partnership and are committed to seamless compliance. If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to call us—we’re here to help.
