This brings up something I was curious about. Would Buck do a handle material switch if you provided the material of your choice? In other words, say you have a piece of stag or elk, you send them the knife and stag and they put it on for you.peterinct said:I'm not sure if you want a different look or want to create it yourself? I had a late 60's 119 that I basically used and abused and as undestructible as that phenolic handle is, I had managed to chip it and crack it.
I inquired on this forum if the handle could be replaced and Joe Houser graciously coordinated the repair. I had Sambar stag put on and it definitely has the WOW factor. It came back like a new knife and the piece of stag is just beautiful.
Just a thought!
