What's your newest Buck knife

[GPyro]

I recently pick up these 2.
The Onset had a concern, I contacted Matt, and in less than 2 weeks it was fixed and in my possession.

Buck is an amazing company when it comes to customer service.



Thanks Matt!

This little guy arrived today. Model 526 "Executive". Really simple and sleek, I like the feel of it. Too bad I don't know anyone with initials "J.A.R ", but it will make a neat watch pocket user. I might pick up a more pristine example for my collection.

ETA: Did Buck make other models in this same style? Maybe with a 501 blade?

Recycled picture below from the "how cold is it" thread, but I got a new 250 Saunter this week.

I've looked at this countless times over the past year or so, but finally pulled the trigger on a discontinued sale at Cutlery Shoppe.

Here it is with a couple other popular USA Made slipjoints (GEC #71 & Case Sodbuster Jr.). I little shorter blade, but similar size, especially to the Sodbuster Jr.

The mail just ran. Very excited to add this one to my collection, 1989 model 560:

Unable to edit my previous post. Here are a few more pics:


The original(?) sheath was especially dirty:

Which is strange, because the knife shows very little signs of use. Just some light scratches on the blade. I gave the sheath a good soak and scrub, I'll add a photo when it dries.

I could not pass up the incredible price at DLT for a 105 Pathfinder Pro- ordered this morning. I love green micarta. Will post a photo when it arrives.

I had a regular 117 that I didn't use much and eventually resold, but the sale price on the 117 pro there is calling my name.

edit- I just realized that I had a $12 credit from a return or rewards or something a while ago, and what do you know... I'll have a 117 Pro probably at some point this coming week.

Thanks, guys, for posting this. Buck had the 117 Pro on sale on their website for around $125 (plus free shipping). I had just about talked myself into ordering one when they disappeared! I hadn't thought of checking other vendors, but after reading this I checked DLT and found the 117 Pro was in stock and even cheaper there! And with free shipping but who wants to wait, so I threw in $11 for FedEx two day.

So you were the one who bought that knife. I had been watching it for a few weeks and just never pulled the trigger. It has the J and R right for my name, but the wrong middle initial. Buck made a 521 that is the equivalent of the 525 with the 2.75" 501 blade and also the 522 which is the equivalent of your 526.

Sorry I beat you to it. I was (still am) looking for one without engraving, as I really like the look of the plain stainless. I saw one that was obviously done at home with a Dremel . Thanks for the info on models, I'll keep an eye out for a 521.

I recently scored one of these Deploys, and I like it very much.

I've got that exact blackout wharncliffe on my "buy soon" list. Ive got the mini blackout deploy and it's amazing.

Arrived yesterday, 117 Pro.

112 Slim Pro TRX. Just came today.

 

[Happy Hippo]

Check out this new custom I recently received. It has a handle made with sterling silver (not full thickness, there is a black spacer - silver is a little over the thickness of a silver half dollar). I showed it on FB already, so sorry if you already saw it.

Went to the Dixie Deer Classic in Raleigh yesterday, one booth had a lady selling Buck Knives (and other brands) at reasonable prices. Got to handle a few discontinued knives (Small Buck Vantage - I've been wanting one but glad I handled it - too small for me). She had two of these Buck 112 LT in the case, I bought one - not bad for $24.75 (tax included). The blade is tang stamped 2018 while the packaging date on the box is 6-17-19 - she had all the knives in a display and pulled the box out from under the table when you bought one, assuming she mixed them up, but no matter to me. OH

Can’t go wrong for under $25, out the door! Lance

I really thought about buying both, but that woulda been hoggish, so I left the other for another Buck fan. OH

This still might be the correct box. I believe the tang stamp is when the blade blank was made. The box date will be when the knife was assembled.
