117 CLUB Permanent thread keep adding

When I misplaced my shoebox of working Buck Knives after our move in early October, I found one box of NIB Buck Knives. Closest thing in that box to my favorite deer knife (the Buck 118) was my new Buck 117; I carried it hunting with me over the next couple of weeks and did clean one deer with it. Good knife, if I didn't already prefer the Buck 118, I would adopt the Buck 117 for my whitetail knife. OH

I bought it a year ago from Copper & Clad, a dealer in limited run Buck Knives. OH
Ps Just logged onto their website, they have two versions of the Buck 117 in stock - the black phenolic like mine and a cocobolo handle version.

Those are nice but i like the one that looks exactly like a stock 119 blood groove included.
I get email from copper & clad all the time. Who are they anyway?
 
I agree I like the phenolic version a lot. My favorite is the Cherrywood one I have. Can’t be more than a couple dozen of those floating around.

C&C is a company that sells Buck knives. They order special runs from Buck so you can get things from them you can’t get elsewhere.

The 117 came out as the Brahma first and C&C ordered them with the black phenolic the first 100 were numbered mine is #30.
 
Thanks OH i did go and checked it out. So they are a special run? I have the 124 to get first so if 117’s are scarce it may be the one that gets away.
 
Eveled your post poped up while i was typing. So like i said if they are gone it wont be the first time i missed out certainly wont be the last lol
 
Yes prices are why i limit my collecting to mostly bone stock Buck knives. The fact that this year i’m gonna slow it down a bit and thet the melted plastic from 2018 cool down a bit. Still plan on taking advantage of my 5 knife BCCI discount but we shall see.
