I like this compact layout/matrix for the date codes. Easy on the eyes and a quick handy reference.

I'm not sure if I will actually use it as a mouse pad or put it into the display case. I use a photo of this, for interpreting date codes, as background on my computer's display desktop. This works well.

A terrific Buck model 102 Woodsman and its sheath for scale.
 
Entirely my pleasure. You are welcome. I would like this on a plastic wallet-sized card for when I'm out of the office and eye balling vintage Bucks at a show or other sale.

On a mug, or window sticker, or how about peel and stickies, what about post-its, t-shirts, and then there are...

ITE needs this on his shirt sleeves at the flea market :)>
 
Make a note that it missed the Buck* stamp of 1967 and didn't mention the Double-Dash of 1992.

Oh yeah......1973 is not mentioned anywhere.

Those are the only omissions I noticed so far.

:)
 
Oregon, I thought that was a prototype you were developing with a copy taped to a pad. My mistake, that should be a BCCI extra offering like the flashlights.
 
I figured that Joe Houser made this matrix.

Does anyone have this date code format from Joe?

73 is present in the date and symbol box 72-86 3 liner catagory, one just has to extrapolate that there is no symbol or dot next to it because it doesnt fall in the 2 dot category of 74-80.

the double dash isnt the official symbol of 92, the dash itself is. The second dash was installed for warranty dept purpose because it has a slightly different spring holder and if a dash symbol came back they needed to know which replacement parts to install.

Oregon, that's some good idea you have... I could use a plastic wallet sized card more for the swap meet... But a T-Shirt would be find...
How about a Buck Calendar with it on the front page and lots of pics of the Buck family making Buck Knives... ITE ... ;) :thumbup:
 
Those e-Bay guys want $20 for one little mouse pad.

:D

I'll pass.

But thanks to this thread it's on my computer wallpaper background and on my phone........so things could be worse.

Great idea, but expensive mouse pad.

Costco online does this kind of stuff: Your photo on a mousepad, coffee mug and even on a blanket! You never even have to get up off your seat because you do it all online and they ship it to you. I don't know about a date code blanket but why not a logo blanket, do I need permission for this from Buck I wonder, with the hammer, anvil, knife and bolt for example:
