What's the Buck-benza?

[golok]

Recently, I heard someone mentioned the "Buck-benza". I feel as if I have just come in from the woods.

What is that? I heard it has something to do with a modified Buck 560.

Is that true? How about some pictures to go along with an explanation?

Sounds like the Buck-Mayo 172 to me, rather than the 560. Unless they are bringing out a frame-locking version of the 560.

But I'm just guessing anyway.

Pretty sure it's the Buck/Mayo.

The Buckbenza is a 560 with a BG-42 blade and a one-armed bandit. Buzzbait was the first one to coin the term.

It's a good, clever term. I have a Buck 110 in BG 42, and it's hard to describe just how good this knife is. Sharp, very easy to sharpen, and MAN, does this thing hold an edge! I reduced several cardboard boxes to ribbons, and a simple steeling brought it back to wow...
