A salute to SFO's and Dealer exclusives. Lets see 'em.

[GPyro]

It was my thread, so I don't feel bad about bringing it back alive for a bit.

Here's a DLT exclusive 501.
S35V blade, black micarta handle with polished nickel bolsters.
All for $84.
Wow.

Like lightweight folders?
Here's an aluminum frame 110.
Complete with drop point and a pocket clip.
I love the full size. It feels solid during use.
And it's pretty. Thanks C&C!

That is a gorgeous knife. Love the black and silver contrast.

Thanks.
I think a clip blade version would be nice too.

GPyro, Are those solid oak scales or oak colored dymond wood? To me they look like solid oak. I have one on the way, should have it soon.

I think the Cabela's Alaskan Guide series with the DLC coating were a great value. The later Cerakote-ed ones not so much.

I believe it's an oak faced laminate.

I thought at first it may be solid oak, but if I look closely, I think I can see a laminate line.
I've had 3 of these, and this one is probably the nicest.
I gave one away, and the other was a web blast that was so bad I returned it.

Please let us know how yours turns out.

Agreed.
Those old AG knives are great!

pjsjr your 75th Anny Alaskan Guide DLC coated 119 is a beauty. One knife I wish I had been paying attention to when it was readily available.

Thanks, it took a long time. They weren't readily available when all the others were. I sort of lived at the Cabela's store until I finally could buy it.

Well worth the effort/wait I would say.

I'm sure mine is a laminate, I believe oak only in color. I like it, one of only a few folders I own.

There's some elk and stag handled 119's that sold out real quick lately.
Anybody here get one?

My thread, so.... It'll die when I do.

 

[jbmonkey]

I got one of the c&c elk 119s.....

 

[GPyro]

Thanks JB.
That knife is so cool.
There's something about a good looking handle, and that one appears to be a handful.


I think sometimes it's easy to get hung up on blade steel. Whereas a great handle goes a long way in making a favorite knife.

thank you.

you have a solid point there. the handle does make the knife when it's a Buck. Bucks 420hc is good enough, for a collector or even a user.
