Buck Collector Club info

[AC_23]

What is the Buck Collector Club and how does one join? Is this similar to the spyderco club that requires you to purchase knives as they're released?

Thanks for the help,
Clay

The Buck Club shares information on the Buck line of knives. You are under no obligation to purchase anything. The club does have a yearly club knife available to members. Next year is the 15 anniversay of the club and we will be having a get-together at the factory in El Cajon. Contact Joe Houser for a application to the club. Life Membership is the way to go... reasonably priced. Members are a great group of people willing to assist you with the Buck line and have great displays at the Blade show and other regional shows as available. We are hoping to have 2 special knives available to club members for the anniversary next year. One to be a recreation of the old lucite 119 and a collaboration with custom knife maker Wilde Bill Cody ( his 976 dagger) and design and inlay work by David Yellowhorse and crew. If you have any other questions feel free to contact me or Joe for more information. You will be glad you did.

AC,
I have to agree with Gene, the Buck Coll. Club is great. I have allways been a Buck fancier and just this year started collecting knives ( only BUCK). The people I have met have all been more than glad to help me with questions ("question", might be my nickname )I have. The Blade Show was a great experience and I finally got to put faces to the names of people I had been in touch with. Club Knives are FANTASTIC and sold at cost to members. I have managed to track down almost all of them from years past. I will post the prototype pic off the 15th Anniv. Dagger, as I am sure no one will mind. It was revealed in Atlanta last month. I hope you come aboard and feel free to contact me ANYTIME. Peace,

Clay,
I'm the guy who started the Buck Collectors Club and my original idea is still prevailing today; it is just as Gene described it (above). I always thought the purpose of a club should be as a clearing house for information and an opportunity to form associations and friendships with people who have a like interest. That is the way it is still working today and for that I am really grateful. It's not perfect but it is a great club; you have to be at a show where the club has a presence to see what Gene means.
