Buck Gold Series

[Haebbie]

It is nearly six years ago that I found a 119 special with phenolic handle
and brass guard and pommel and got to know that it is from the Buck Gold Series.
Later I found the corresponding 103BP. And now - thanks to the worldwide
auctioneer - I colud buy the last missing knife of this series, the 102.

Here it is.

But as I got to know too there were different BP models sold - with or without etching,
different stamps and so on. Do you have pictures?

Best,

Haebbie, a great set I didn't know about . Your 103 looks to have a different stamping . All mirror polished blades . DM

Now i'm sure that I love the looks of those,always wondered what that combination would look like!

Nice set.

Must be a European thing.

Never saw one before.

I'd certainly grab one if I got the chance, though. Nice looking knives!

Yes, David, they have different stamps. I bought a second 102,
that has a Buck custom stamp like the 103. But my two 119 BP
have the standard stamp both.

No, BG, the BPs are not an European thing. I bought the most of them in the
"States".

Amazing.

I just can't remember seeing one before.

Although.....my memory is NOT what it used to be.



Anyhow.....a great find. I'll have to look harder for that variety (if that's possible).

If past history holds true, some will show up on e-Bay within hours.

I swear that some sellers monitor this forum and tailor their offerings according to interest expressed here.

The knives with the "Gold Series" etch are really hard to find. I have a 119 but no camera.

P. S. I also have a 119 with a satin blade and brass hardware. FYI.

I always look for black handled and brass munted BPs, but I've never seen one
with satin blade. It seems to be a great collector's item.

Thanks, Guys, for the kind comments.

What I saw in the pictures first time was that the 102 has red spacers.
- Are the 119 and the 103 were offered with red spacers too?
- Was the 102 was sold with black spacers also?
- Is there anybody who has answers to this questions?

Best,
Haebbie

I saw the 119 at the Passedina Ca, Blade Expo. I thought of picking it up but blew my money on other knives. It looks a little funny to me.
