Hi guys. I've purchased a bunch of Bucks recently at my closest B&M store. They have the best selection and prices in the city, but still don't carry a lot of stock and diverse models as U.S stores. Nonetheless , I bought two Bucklite max's , two Vantage Selects Large (420HC) , and a few weeks ago, a 112. I almost bought a 110 also, but the weight of that knife always throws me off. Don't get me wrong , it's a fantastic and time-tested knife, but I'm holding out to see if they get the Paperstone ones in. I like the Vantage and the Bucklite max so much, I had to get spares. The BM is one heck of a great knife: lightweight,great handle, and full tang. The Vantage select opens extremely smooth, has a great blade shape, low-rider clip, and is the perfect size for a folder for me. I like slightly larger folders, and the Vantages' replace the Solitaire I lost a couple of years ago 
Darn if I can't find it: it made it from the truck to the house...then poof...gone. I ripped the joint apart looking for it, and finally gave up.) Maybe I'll find it one of these days. Anyways, these new Bucks I got are a great replacement , and Buck comes through for me again. Defnately one of the top best factory knife companys ever. I am a happy man ! 
Edit: Ok, I sprung for a 110 tonight. Had to do it. I just can't be a true Buck fan without one. Brings back old memories, as my first "110" was a G-96 brand copy I bought back in the '70s. Still have it, it's loose as a goose !! I took that knife everywhere, and used it on everything. The only " real" knife I had. Now I own the real deal some 35 years later !! If only to be young again !
