Buck 301 Build Out #6

[Happy Hippo]

I have the build outs for 301 from 0 to 5, and 7. What was #6?

Buck mention this almost a year ago:

The 301BO6 was actually going to be a the same as the BO7 but with only the single clip point blade but we did not have as many as I thought and used what we had to build out the BO7 with both blades.

I'm low on cash right now - just got the 301. The weird thing is the if that is BO #7 and the build out list was just updated last August, what happened with BO #5 and BO #6? Edit: Wait, I have BO #2 and BO #5. So I missed BO #6 somehow.

Excellent. Thank you for making it so that I don't have to search for the elusive #6. And, what is worse, you pointed me to a thread that I made and forgot.

I enjoyed the challenge and learned a thing or two. If Buck had gone forward with the BO #6, it would have essentially been a 302 with a 301 blade. I'd like to see a one-bladed 301 (302) for a BOTM - something they've never done. I'd also like to track down a 301 with wood carbon fiber - BO #5.

0301BO1 was exactly that, a single blade 301 ...
