Buck fixed blade Fridays

My only fixed-blade Buck, the bodge-job handle feels better than it looks. A 101 sheath fits perfectly.

Who did the handle?
I like it!
 
Anyone know how many serrated 122 Nemos were made
Damn few. I have the inverted but think yours is only the 3rd upright I remember seeing. Haebbie has shown one. Nemo was discontinued just after the switch to upright. Not sure just how rare hens teeth are but surely numbered 122's are rarer, the upright even more so. I've shown this picture several times before. I call it my Surf n' Turf pair.

I believe first year of the Kalinga? Inverted.
Good find Mike. Actually first 3 years. 1970-1972, going to to upright in 1973. The Akonua was introduced in 1972 so inverted would be the first year for that model.
David Martin reported once having seen a 2-line Kalinga. I've never seen one, a prototype possibly.

Nice to see you back posting a bit more.. :thumbsup:

Reminds me of the Puma too. Bit like the White Hunter I thought. Those Kalinga models are truly great looking also. Quite the curved blade.
