Hi all, what a weekend, I had... I had a good day at the swap meet Sunday, I got a 110 and a few other buck things and some hand tools... But after the swap meet... I finely got to go over and meet this ex-Buck-employee and buy some knives... It took me about 6 months to do this deal with him, but it was well worth it... Because I got some cool Buck knives, blades, Gold etch, custom 110s, 112s blades and a few others, parts and a Case bowie and so on... It will be a few days before I can post a few pics of some of the blades and knives... One a week, you know me... LOL... Now to top that off, I went over to another guys house to see his knives... I met him at a walmart some time ago... He said that he had some Buck knives and some other knives, like Case and so on... Anyway he called me up Sunday too and said that he was ready to sell his Buck knives... So I went straight over to his house after I got done with the ex-Buck-employee and I bought all his Buck knives that he could find at this time... Now his friend worked for Buck knives too... He said he was going to hook me up with him too... I said not right now, I have no more BUCKS to spend... Anyway It will be some time before I can take any pics of these knives... But I will try to take some pics of the ex-Buck-employee knives today... Here's a few pics, but you can't see to much yet... The blue bag and the blue jar is from the ex-Buck-employee and the blue and red bag is the other guys bag, there was a paper bag too, no pics... I like the little employee safety hand book... More to come... Thanks... ITE

Hi Armand,

Love the Case Bowie but, the Mountain Man gold etch 103 blade takes the cake (lets see if Igor can translate that one)!

What treasure would I like to see next? Mix them up brother, your like felix the cat and his bag of tricks;).

Whats with the raised rivets or whatever they are on the Bolsters of the 110? Hadnt seen that before-thanks
 
Question for the knife manglers, do you fit over sized scales to the knife and then cut them to match the handles? Cool display knife Armand.
