I am thinking about joining and just going all in for a lifetime membership. Dont want this to sound like a dumb question, but, What benefits do you receive with a life membership that you dont get with an annual membership, or are there any? thanks for any help :)

You get a larger % discount when you order from Larry Oden as a life member. I don't know for sure if a yearly member is eligible for the Pro Shop discount from Buck, which is huge.

I want to thank Joe Houser here. I emailed him with a small issue because everyone says he does a great job for the BCCI folks and everyone else. He answered quickly and forwarded my email quickly. I got what I needed to know very quickly. I had wanted to get the information on an Eagle Scout knife, but I don't think my first email got through. I tried a different email service and whatever happened, I got results from Joe.

I just wanted to say thanks Joe.

I am waiting for my set also. Sure am antsy over them but I have a question that maybe you or someone can answer for me.
As a life member of the B.C.C.I. I am curious about one of the perks for paying to be a member. I recently ordered some knives at the member discount of 50% off plus 10%. The knife I ordered was listed at $650.00 so I got it for $325.00 plus 10% (32.50) for a total of $357.50 not including shipping.
Now I see one listed on the Bay for $349.95 with shipping of $7.99 for a grand total of $357,94. In other words I am paying more (shipping not accounted for with discount) for the same knife with the club discount.
Why pay to be a member when I can buy knives cheaper through an auction site.
I realize we get choices each year on select knives for the members, but we still pay. Yes we do get to go to conventions but then we pay for all that also and from what I was told we don't even get a break on a motel. Perhaps being a new life member I just don't understand.
Maybe someone can explain it to me. Thanks.

I have been away from Buck collecting for far too long and am new to this forum. Since my wife passed away more than a decade ago I have had to put my time in to raising a child on my own and something had to give. Just have not had the time or ability to keep up. Sure do enjoy reading these threads and all the knowledge my fellows have to share and THANK YOU all for it. I guess I'm an old timer at this point ...... Bummer.

Hope it's Okay to put my two cents worth in here.

It seems to me there is far more advantage to being a member of the BCCI than just a discount that may or may not be the best available at a given time. As a founding member (#24) of the club I can tell you that to have the opportunity to meet the Buck family from Chuck, CJ or Joe is worth the price of admission alone. This Christian family is second to none in my view and to have met them all is indeed a gift on it's own. You will simply never find a better family or family business than you will find in BUCK. They are good people and I am blessed to have met them at the Atlanta Blade show a number of times. In fact I recall Joe when he first married into the family and became a part of the company. He sure seems to fit well in the group.

If that's not enough .... the collectors you will meet and become lifelong friends with through the club will be a bright spot in any ones collectors life. Sad to say that some of the best friends I made in the club have joined my wife in the hereafter and some I never met but considered friends none the less have also. From the founder Vern Taylor down the line I have never met a single person involved with Buck or the BCCI that was not worth meeting and calling friend.

So, though a discount is always great and important to those of us who don't know when to stop buying knives there is much more to the BCCI than just a discount

Just my opinion and we all have one.

Hope to get to know you kids better as I get back in the saddle
 
Hey all of you Buck Knife collectors. I worked for Buck Knives from 1975 through 2005. During that "dynamic" time, I was was blessed enough to have been a part of the tremendous growth of the company. During my 30 years, I served as the production supervisor of the 110/112s, Bucklites, Handle shop, and the Buck Custom Shop.

I was the one who spent time in Arizona to help Dave Yellowhorse sent up his production line for what was going to become one of Buck's best collaborations. I was smart enough to have been the ONE who moved Wilde Bill Cody from the production line, to the Custom shop. The rest is history.

I spent my last 5 years there (2000-2005) as Buck's New Product Engineer, Project Manager before moving on the Leatherman.
I also worked with Tom Mayo,Koji, Peter Whitaker,Steve Tarani, and of course Mick Strider and Dwayne Dyer on the "Strider-Buck" tactical products.

During all of that time, I was fortunate to aquire some very old and interesting rare knives.

It's great to have you here Paul. I'm sure many would be thrilled to see some of the treasure you've acquired over the years.

However, you're not allowed to sell here with a paid membership (gold or above) and all business must be conducted in the Exchange section of site.

Thanks for stopping by and welcome to Bladeforums!

Just exactly what is the web address for the club and can it be joined by means other than postal mail? Also, are there any requirements or stipulations to be a member?
 
:thumbup:

Sent my application in with a check for the one year membership late last week. Looking forward to seeing what all the club has to offer. Strongly suspect that next year's renewal will be the lifetime membership if the club is all that I suspect it to be. :)

Being a n00b to this forum, I'm hesitant to post the link to the club as some forums frown on linkage. Simply google Buck Collectors Club and the .org site that comes up is it. The correct one is obvious. I read somewhere that you can join via email, but someone else might have that info. I don't.

Requirements or stipulations? Well, they let me in, so I doubt it. I just went to the site, downloaded the form, filled it out, included a check and sent it in. Got my package today.
