Buck 532

I wonder if the entire 2000 batch has crooked blades? I caught another one (mine - first 2 photos, new one - second 2 photos) and it looks like its blade is also curved. I'm unlucky, I once received a book with the insides upside down relative to the cover

I'm not upset at all, these are still great knives! I specifically looked for 2 so that 1 could be used without any problems

Do you think that sheath is original with the 2000 model? I recently found a similar sheath for a 110 and someone said they thought the design and logo indicated it came from sometime around 1980. If yours came with the 2000 knife then I'll assume mine is from about that time. (It looks really good with my two-dot 110!)

It's hard to say if this is really an original case, as the seller claimed. I think I'll ask the question by mail to Buck and then come back with an answer. Oh I'd like to see your 2 dot, did you post it in the 110 thread?

Yes, here's my post of my sheath: https://www.bladeforums.com/threads/whats-your-newest-buck-knife.1640849/post-22706762

And I had forgotten about this, but here's an answer from matthewtstock that narrows the date range down to maybe 1998 - 2001: https://www.bladeforums.com/threads/whats-your-newest-buck-knife.1640849/post-22706805

So it looks to be very possible that your knife and sheath are original together.

Someday I'll get myself a Bucklock.
