For the June 2021 BOTM, the 2021 date code was not entered into the program/machine during production. The program/machine defaulted to an Asterisk for the date code.
I believe 1967 is the only other time Buck used an Asterisk for the date code. The asterisk was only used for a few months in 1967. To be very specific (overly specific ?) - the asterisk on the 1967 knives is an elevated dot in the location an asterisk would be placed. So it was called an asterisk to differentiate it from the common center line dot (Thank you Eveled for this explanation). Read this informative thread - https://www.bladeforums.com/threads/118-inverted-asterisk.1423980/

Hello all - I added to Post #28 - Added the information for 2021 April, May, June and July. Updated the March 2021 box information. If any of the information is incorrect - please let me know, I will update. My crystal ball says - August 2021 a 4 blade camp knife ? : )
 
I was waiting to post that! :thumbsup:
I gotta change the title to this thread.
I'm honestly unsure if there were BOTM's prior to 2018.
I'll happily change title to reflect and include them!
Thanks for turning this thread into the resource it is.

I'll make the suggestion to change the title to include each year (2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, etc), and in addition to BOTM, add "Buck Of The Month". I'm assuming it will make it easier ( ? ) for people to find this thread by title search. Although, the year dates can start to become a little long ?
