Well, I noticed tonight that the Buck website/Pro Site has added a goodly portion of the new 2014 offerings. That was great to see, but the only problem is all the desirable (for me anyway) items are listed as "currently unavailable" when you try and order them. I somewhat understand the reasoning of this, and I know there are other avenues which I have taken, but it is still frustrating. Heck before they switched over there were still 2013 items that said the same thing so it can't all be about allowing the retailers to get their stock in first. Am I misunderstanding something?:(

Any thoughts?:confused:
 
Yeah that is a drag. They always supply on-line and brick and mortor stores first which leave us prositers out in the cold. I am glad to see the 105 offered in cocabola:thumbup:
 
I think I will pick up a 120 and 105, I hope they come with the burgundy sheath, that the older knives with cocobola came with.

KC already has some of the Cocobolo new knives on their site (just like imafritz said & thank you mwputnam for the heads up).

The Personal & the General with that rich, hard and dense Cocobolo pull my bell rope.

Thanks for the update... I am looking at their site now to see what changes were made.
 
Ok! Does anyone know if the Cocobola fixed blades will come with a Burgundy or Black Sheath?
 
Per my inquiry today of the Buck Factory Store: Burgundy.

I inquired about the sheaths that come with the new fixed blade models General and Personal with cocobolo handles, in particular, and all new fixed blade models with cocobolo handles.

You were correctly informed. My 120 came with burgundy and I like it much better than the black. It seems to go with the cocobola better than the black.

Thank you for the info, reason I ask is I saw a cocobola on a website with a Black Sheath, I am so glad they will have the Burgundy Sheaths. Great pic of the 120 Badhammer.

It is my belief that new items are not for sale on the website until all dealer orders are filled...
 
still waiting for the Marksman 830 at Cabelas Canada. I think you're right about the dealers first.
