Has anybody ever heard of the knife maker Donlad M Buckbee.
I just got one of his knives, and was a bit curious. I was unable to dig anything up online. Here is a pic of the blade

Thanks Larry!

Does any body else have any info on this maker? The blade on this knife has a bit of flex to it and is fairly thin.

Just saw this. I deer hunted with Don for 15 years. I have one of his knives (trout and bird fixed blade) which is a dandy. His logo which I would assume is on the blade, is a bumblebee with a buck's horns on it. Don was a man of many talents. Record holding bench rest shooter, military officer pilot and prodigious eater and drinker. Lost contact with him about a dozen years ago. If still living, would be about 85 years old
