April BOTM ??

I like it - but I agree that the price seems steep for the options. Besides, the 055 is so...well...small (and I already have two that, combined, cost half the price).



Huh...I typed this post hours ago; but apparently never submitted it. Until now

There's one in the bay for 300$?? You bought 2 of them for 28.75$ each? That's a purdy good deal.....

Steep is the word! I do love it, though!

Too much for me. I would be in at $99

Yea, considering you can get a full-sized Buck 110 Pro with S30V, nickel bolsters, and black G10 for $100... I think this was priced a bit too high. I'm gonna have to sell my standard 55 to justify the purchase, lol

On the other hand, it looks fantastic and only 149 were made. I can't wait for it to arrive!

price didnt scare me away....

I just dont find the 55 to be a knife I carry or use. I gave my only one away to a coworker who loves it.

for those who get one. please post pics....still like lookin at 'em though......
 
149 made, that's what sold me, plus it wasn't 150+$....In 5 years people will be paying 200+-$ for them....The 110 with the same features are full production knives. I'm almost sure they'll produce more than 149 of them....

No matter what Buck does for the BOTM someone isn't going to be happy about it. Including me....:D:p:p:D:D:Do_O

You're reading it wrong jb... The first statement is praising the BOTM 55. The second is the general feeling some folks have about the BOTM in general. There's been 16 of them and they haven't bought a single one, so there's no pleasing everyone....:D:D

Isn't that 149 number strange? I've seen Buck produce 150 of a few of their BotM's, but never 149. Do ya think something happened to the 150th, lol?

I snagged one without a seconds hesitation, so I'm definitely not unhappy with the release, but I think $90 - $100 would have been more in line with the pricing of previous BotM releases. Although, it seems the 2019 releases are a bit pricier. In the end... It's the difference of $15 - $25 and really not a big deal for such a limited release. :)

Going by how fast they went, it seems like Buck priced them just right though.

Maybe CJ, Joe, or Jeff wanted one?? I thought it was a weird production # also, all the more to buy one, right?? :D:D:D:D:D
 
As good as those 800 race track 110 bucklites sold they should do a bucklite of the month as well.
Change the color or scale design and they will sell as long as they don't get crazy on the price.
