The comment that people wish they were us made pops up alot.
"us made"?? Did you mean "US made"??

I own Bucks, Spydercos, even a Schempp, ZTs, Hinderers, Reeves, Ruanas, Busse, Beckers, KaBars, Helle, Opinel, GEC, Saks, Gerbers, Kershaws, Ontario and Swamprat.
I'm definitely not stuck in old ways.
I do own some. Selkirk, and some 300 series, there's nothing wrong with them. The Selkirk has always done very well for Buck. The comment that people wish they were us made pops up alot. I know Buck needs the Chinese models in their lineup. Christmas tins for big stores etc, whoever watches over the import line does a great job making sure they meet Bucks standards.
One thing I’ve noticed. When a company goes offshore. There seem to be a lot more knockoffs flooding the market and they are the kind of knockoffs that are almost impossible to differentiate.
When a company stays American. The knockoffs are made but are easy to recognize as such.
The 379 is 8.00 dollars at the factory sale. nice knife for the money.Went to the local Academy to check out their selections of cheaper knives(They only have two high end knives, a spyderco and a benchmade, and those are the only two theyve had for over a year now), shooting for a new SAK or something, but grabbed a buck 379. They have surprisingly few American made bucks, considering i live in the South. Feel like theyre missing a market.
Anyways
Nice enough little knife.
I agree. Im amazed at how sharp it is, being such a cheap chinese Buck, shaved hair off my without any kind of trouble.The 379 is 8.00 dollars at the factory sale. nice knife for the money.
