April 2022 Buck of the Month - 112 S35VN 50th Blade Etch Marble Carbon Fiber Inlays

[Tecate]

It's that time of the month again. I'm still holding out for an upgraded steel/handle 124 Frontiersman. Someday...

Me too... if that ever happened, I'd sprain my arm from reaching into my back pocket so quickly to get to my wallet for the credit card.

A 124 with S35VN and Ironwood...

if we're going 124 wishlists.....id rather have another 5160 or 3v 124 but in ironwood.....and slimmer handle like the old style ones......

Memorize the number, then you won't have to sprain your arm getting the card out.

O.B.

I was thinking the same thing.

124 handles are too "blocky".
5160 or 3v are good choices for big blades.

I will 3rd the slimmer style handle.

 

[Badhammer]

A 124 in ATS-34 and either stacked leather or a phenolic handle like the early versions.

While I do agree that we are overdue for a 124 the chances are more likely that we'll see a folder this month. An Ironwood 124 would be right up my alley but I hate to think of the price.

Folders are a sore spot for me because too many supposedly can't be shipped north of the border even though they actually can. Someone at Buck very much needs to solve that hiccup in the shipping details. I missed out on the June BOTM 110 because of this but recently acquired one from Craig, thankfully. It passed through Customs and the inspection process just fine.

 

[Bloodloss]

I'd like to see a year of the fixed blade. Seeing at least 6 or 7 for the year would be nice.
As far as guesses, I'm gonna just throw it out there... 301.

 

[bucksway]

A lot of long range planning goes into the BOTM..Someone KNOWS right now what it is..

Right? What's it gonna take? Peasant revolt? I'm standing by with my worn out pitchfork and torch.

Stacked leather would be awesome. I'd be searching the couch for spare change to raise up funds. Or better yet do the the old ask for forgiveness from the wife over asking permission.

Yep, I agree

 

[Jsega51]

Yep, I agree

I don’t think anyone would disagree, obviously the planning for the April knife didn’t start March 31st lol. I do wonder how far out they have these pre-planned and scheduled though. I’d imagine it has to be 3-4 months at least so they can prepare to have the materials on hand?

My guess though is a slipjoint this time around….single blade stockman.

 

[FranklinG]

I'd pay money for a 2-bladed jack knife in a 303 frame.

 

[Fixall]

Is it already time for my monthly request for a Buck 102 in ebony/brass/20cv (or s30v)?

Man, time is flying!

That would be a good looking knife.

 

[BuckShack]

I personally think they have no long range planning for BOTM. I think they wait for us to open a thread and start speculating what it will be, then rattle off 500 of something completely different. I'm going with a Vanguard this month. That means it will be a 303

 

[rje58]

I hope it's something I don't want. My budget needs a break.

 

[eveled]

I’d like to see more fixed blades that match the pro series as BOM’s but since we just got the 117 “pro”. My vote as always is for more smooth bone knives to add to the old BASSPRO set.

I have 0 interest in a stick tang 124. I’m not a huge believer in full width tangs, but I like that the 124 has one.
