Buck 101st Airborne Strider?

I think it was made by Buck. It looks like a Buck strider 888 solution :D
 
Think he is asking about the Screaming Eagles (Airmobile) logo Jim.
I have been wrong once before...I still have the Revolution to prove it.
 
It does look like the logos are etched on afterwards. They dont seem up to the normal quality if you know what I mean.

Also the engraving dont look too good either.....
 
They responded to my questions.

Said it came from Buck that way and they still have 4 left with numbers in the 20's.

Think I'll pass for now. Headed there this summer but between my bad feelings towards Strider and it just being something else for me to move I'll pass on it.

Leaves more for you guys:D
 
one day ill have one of thoses. I served in Iraq 2003-2004 with the 101st

I thought that too, especially the pop-eyed "R"'s...but I did a quick web search and quite a few of the 101st logos have the same pop-eyed "R"'s...maybe a historical/sentimental sort of font... :confused:

On a related note (per caine's post), my eBay/Buck 119 was carried by a Marine in Iraq...he had a local do a spider-font engraving of "USMC" on the grip...I'd like to send the knife in to Buck to have the scratches polished out of the blade, but I'm afraid one of those new trainees would buff out the engraving too... :rolleyes:
