2022 Knives Listed on Buck Website...and then Delisted...Live Again!

Received the 110 Slim Pro TRX knives today. Very smooth action out of the box (adjustable of course).

I intend to purchase a 112 Sport and maybe a 112 slim in the orange G-10. The Saunter interests me, but there's a lot of competition at that price. I think I need to see one in person. I just don't see the value in the Legacy Sprint or the 501. I like both patterns a lot, but they seem way overpriced to me. By a bunch.
 
All are very nice, especially the Vintage Tribute 112, but they are all way out of my fiscal reach.

I’ve got two of the Saunters on order. The pattern appeals to me on several levels but mainly the short blade in proportion to the handle and the blade shape.

I expect Buck to offer a standard version at a cheaper price in a few months.

I’m not sure when I’ll receive mine as I ordered them from a consignment dealer who may not even have them yet.

Pics when you get it :thumbsup:
 
The micarta scales on the 110 and 112 scales look like they are held in place with a couple torx screws. If they are quickly removed, there could be some opportunities to make some homemade custom scales for those models relatively easily.
 
Blacksprucy that is the beauty of the Take-Apart concept. Some of us like to play with our toys and the T-A makes it easier. Not as easy as a Selector but doable. When Buck first came out with it I thought FOR SURE Buck would sell loose blades and handles (plus the tools and parts) in the Custom shop. But that hasn't happened yet. I firmly believe if Buck offered us the opportunity it would really take off lol!

It does seem like Buck could make some money off this, but maybe the profit margin is small enough, it's not worthwhile. Or more likely they're worried they'll be overwhelmed by warranty claims for disassembled knives 🤨

It could be like Legos 😜

Very nice.

Seems like people are receiving the O.D Green sport models varying from tan to green. Mine 110 Sport looks green but have seen some on here that look more tan in color.

They might be different colors, but it could also be due to uncalibrated monitors and color editing
