Thanks for the review, been some good ones in August, hope that continues.

Of the 79 BOTMs to date, only 5 have been priced below $99 - not qualifying for free shipping. If Buck would offer up a sub $99 knife I would bet most buyers would add some additional knives or merchandise to their cart to get the free shipping. It would be a good way for Buck to sell some additional inventory. I'd like to see a 110 LT with a hi vis orange, yellow or green handle and a S35VN clip point blade for about $89.99!

I don't have a guess this month.
Hope it's something cool.
Without ceracote.

Without ceracote.

Yes, this!!!

I just signed up with BUCK for the newsletter, etc. Does that mean I will hear about the BOTM and be able to purchase one? Thanks for any comments.

I opted out as they were constantly sending me stuff.
Maybe they have gotten better, but for awhile I thought maybe I was their only customer because they sent so much stuff.


Yeah they'll let you know.


I just pay attention here as someone always lets us know when the BOTM is released.

I've been thinking of doing the same. The FOMO has been to great for me to do it though!

3v 124 with brass and ironwood

 

[DavidABQ]

I am going guess that it will be a model 252 trunk knife with a lavender cerekoted blade and a silver carbon fiber handle.

I wouldn't mind a yellow saw-cut delrin 303 in just about any steel. Maybe in 5160 to keep it unique.

 

[pat9198]

I wouldn’t mind another 830 Marksman. Or how about a new Vantage making its debut in BOTM.

 

[BuckShack]

I think it will be a 110 with a droppoint magnacut blade

Yeah, I get fan e-mail from Buck pretty regularly. And another one if I go to their site to check something out.

I'd rather it be a Magnacut 112 clip point. I already have a 110 Magnacut from the CS on order.

There was talk awhile back of an improved Vantage with bearings possibly coming out.

I don’t think that they have done a model 389 Canoe pattern before. It would be nice to see the canoe with a gold glitter acrylic handle material with a nice set of dark grey cerakoted blades.

I'll jump on a USA-made Canoe faster than a duck on a Junebug! Unless it has Cerakote or a powder metallurgy blade with Vanadium Carbides. I'm not a fan of those.

Right now I'd accept an American 389 with just about any steel, coated or not, and handle material.
