I remember a few months ago someone posted a thread about a BUCK 186 Oddessey. People posted replys in handfulls and were excited to see the pattern re-released as a Walley World exclusive.
While I was at the Pasedena Ca. Knife Expo yesterday there was just a few tables that had any BUCK knives at all. The BCCI table, ran by a wonderful fellow by the name of Bruce Dollinger had lots of nice BUCK knives for sale... I'm glad I went on Friday as opposed to Saturday and Sunday like all of the other guys we've already heard about. I was able to find a Buck Oddessey 182 from 2000. You don't see these every day and I thought I'd share with you.

This 182 was carried in the '99 and '00 catalogs and dropped because poeple thought that it looked like crap in the catalog. There were great sales on the other Oddesseys but this one didnt last because it wasn't very photogennic. I have it know and love it, this kinfe is light weight and strong and it sports the ATS-34 steal to boot.

The only made these with the carbon fiber for two catalog years and then they dissappeared.
 
Funny when the WW paper stone Oddessey hit the page, people had something to talk about. This is the same knife with Carbon fiber that BUCK made 10 years ago. I guess it got discontinued for for the same reaction...
 
I was told that because these looked like cheep crap in the catalog they didn't sell very well and were discontinued...
