With what's going on in the world right now, how about if we escape and take a trip back to the good ole days. Let's see some Bucks knives or Buck memorabilia from the 1960s through 1980s.
those are nice.
like to see those reissued. in sterling this time as I read they were gonna be before the silver cornering deal happened 70s or 80s...dont remember the time frame.
yep. wouldnt bother me though. dont mind heavy.Since Sterling Silver is 3.8X the density of Aluminum, that would make a fairly heavy knife.
TAH, I have never thought of 1968 as "the good ole days". My memory says it wasn't a very calm year.

George Leonard Herter called people who gravitated toward fancy knives “Drug Store Cowboys” More recently the sobriquet for that bunch was “Urban Cowboys”. Who cares? If you like it, carry it. Life’s too short to worry about public? opinion.I've always like those knives, tiguy. They would look good with my saddle.![]()
I wouldn’t mind having a 2 dot with 440c. I’ve heard a lot of good things about those knives along with the hard to sharpen reputation. But I figure if it’s easy to sharpen it’s probably easier to get dull and likewise if it’s hard to sharpen it will be hard to get dull.
