I thought I would post a picture of one of our Junior BCCI collectors. This is our own David Martin's lovely daughter Sarah with her collection of Folding Alpha Hunters. Sarah has written a couple of articles for the BCCI newsletter. :thumbup:

The knife on the left (Sarah's right) is an unusual BCCI model that is discussed in this thread.

The center one is a buildout with faux ivory handles and an eagle cutout in the blade that she just recently received as a 16th birthday gift. Here's a larger picture of that one.

I'm sure that either Sarah or David can fill us in on the other three.
 
Great looking collection and collector-nice pics Plum-Proud papa DM:thumbup:
 
Thanks guys .Yep, 300 guessed it ! I just sort of supervise and the kids do the work .
TonyB, yes she hunts with me when school allows . She took to the Alpha Hunter on her own good taste . R-L is the rubber handled Alpha that came in (if anyone remembers) Buck's Camp and Field Set offer in 2003 . A cordura notebook type offering full of Buck goodies; a saw, a diamond sharpener, the Alpha folder knife, a hatchet and other items needed for field dressing . It was originally a gift to me from a Buck member (I4Bucks) but she traded me work for it . The second knife is a rosewood laminate w/ ATS-34 blade Buck offered in 2004 she bought with horse stall cleaning money . The fourth Alpha was a 2005 Buck offering with Walnut scales and 154 CM blade only offered for a short time . She painted 50 crossties on our place for exchange and I bought her the knife . The other two were gifts from Plumber . Great guy and great girl . Thanks . DM

Here's the rubber handled one that you asked about Kevin. The picture is a little blurry, but I did what I could with it after David sent it to me to post.

Thanks Plum and DM-I thought in the orignal pic it had a grey rubber scale, but this pic shows it black, correct?
 
Ima, yes its handle material is black rubberized with a 2003 date stamp . For what ever reason the first photo turned the handle color light grey . I noticed it too . Thanks Robert and 338 . DM
