112 in 5160 or 420?

Buck's annual Fathers Day Sale.
Most factory authorized dealers sell many running line items at factory authorized sale prices.
Doesn't include dealer exclusives.

Skip Amazon & buy direct. It's cheaper... and Prime delivery sucks lately.

**For the record, I ordered on the 17th (before this thread was posted), so no 5160 heading my way.

Do I really "need" a pair of 110's with 5160 blades (one each drop point and clip point) with oak covers?
I got 110's with 420HC, 440C, and CM154 ... more 110's than I'm like to carry, if I be honest about it ... and there are other things I need worst/more ...
I think I'll think about it for a few days ...

You right about Prime shipping leaving much to be desired lately
I ordered an in stock (allegedly "all terrain") Rollator that will (supposedly) work in a somewhat packed gravel parking lot, and on the lawn, April 30.
Prime finally got it to me on May 10.

It works so-so on the parking lot ... a little less than so-so in the grass.

So much for Amazon's claim "we ship what people need most first." I needed the rollator a lot more than a couple wall tapestries ordered the same time, and delivered May 4.
 
So I ordered the 112 from c&c. It arrived after about a week. This isn’t their fault but it’s a very bad example for buck. So much gap between the lock bar and brass liners that you can shine a light through it. Lots of side to side blade play. Obviously I have to send it back.. now an answer to the “kill the little man” comment. It’s actually c&c that sells the same knife on amazon, amazon fulfills for them. Now I absolutely wish I had ordered on amazon because I would have a new one en route already. I sent an email to c&c and haven’t even gotten a response, and their return policy makes it clear that it could be 5 or more weeks. So I’ll be almost two months just to not end up with the knife at all.
 
Been there, done that.
C&C will take care of it, but it's a frustratingly long process considering the alternatives.

Personally anything I order from them goes thru Ama__n for that reason. I always get the item faster that way too.

Neither have a phone number, which I don't like.
But in the event of a return, Ama__n is light years ahead of refunding funds.
 
I can't argue with that. I assume the product will be flawless which is a mistake. I've had to return to them and it's gone well. I've had to return to the factory too and it's gone well. Both took time. I hope this goes quick for you.

Did you check your spam box on your email? I did a return to them and it took about a week from the time I shipped it back to them until I had the new...perfect example of a Buck in my hand.
They aren't a big giant company like several dealers that sell knives, but from my experience they'll take care of you, and I already heard that before.

When you say, "so much light you can shine a light through", thats kinda vague really. I expect it to be tight and function properly, even look good, but I have owned a lot of classics and traditionals that you could see light shining through to some extent, but were fantastic examples.

The blade play says more kinda. I do hope they get you one you're happy with.
