A total aside - the Buck 860 Hartsook is a teeny (1.88" blade; 4.25" OAL) blade in black oxide coated S30V - MSRP $39. Made in ID - except the imported neck sheath. I had the 151 Tom Mayo Waimea - more of a 'knife blank' in a larger S30V blade style. The desire to wrap the handle in Paracord is hard to ignore... but then it won't hang in the neck sheath. It really is a great 'knife blank'. Mine went to the sand box with a 'mercenary plumber' friend... who is back now (I need a use report!).
I always think of an Altoids tin knife as a 'back up knife'. For me, that is a Vic SAK - like a Tinker family member. My EDC back pocket rider, a Vic SAK Farmer, isn't a bad choice, either. The OP's Buck looks fine, too - their 420HC, heat-treated by Paul Bos, isn't to be looked down upon - keeps an edge for some time - and can be re-edged easily. Any doubts can be squashed for ~$26 at a WallyWorld - buy a 110! That could be a 'back up' to a Busse - great folder.
