Buck of the Month BOTM 841 Sprint Pro satin S30V drop point blade Ckote Crushed Silver AL hndl rdwhtblue blade marking. Blue ano spcr. of/500

You can buy the same knife, same blade steel, with your choice of micarta colored handle........for less money.

I'm guessing there will still be 3 different BOTMs available when the August knife drops.
And you can still buy many of last years Legacy knives now on sale at various retailers.....

I'm not trying to be negative, but lately a peanut butter and jelly sandwich is more interesting.

An easy pass for me. If it had had something other than S30v, that might have been enough to get me to pull the trigger, but as is, I'm just kinda tired of stacking knives just to be stacking them.
 
The Sprint pocket clip design doesn't make sense to me, makes the knife sit wrong in my pocket.

This version (on top of not wanting more Sprints) is also an easy pass for me. REALLY wanted a Sprint for a long time and held out for a high end one, nice knife but for that silly clip design.
 
Ordered! I don’t know, I guess I got a thing for Sprint Pro’s. This will be my third. Do I need it? No. But then I didn’t need my last 20 or so, either. This one just looks like a nice-to-have, to go along with my favorite carry other Sprint Pro and blue/black Sprint Ops Pro. Dammit dammit dammit.

I have 2 Sprint Pros too - burlap Micarta and marbled carbon fiber. Also have the Sprint Ops Pro - blue/black. I ordered this one as well. It is not a bad knife but I was hoping for something better.

I agree, and I'm more interested in a PB&J than this knife - my favorite sandwich ! Endless different spreads - Yummmm !
 
A 4th of July themed easy EDC is great for the month of July. Had to get one. Looking forward to getting it out next year! A counter for availability would be nice. Not that it matters but it would be nice to know which number you got. Like a proof coin or deathwish mug. Why not?

100% with you on this. I do not understand this pocket clip design one bit.

If the ledge was angled the opposite direction, it would at least sit well in a slash pocket.

Which is crazy, because Buck also makes one of the best clip designs with the Marksman (end mounted, no snag, deep carry, fully reversible).

If the Sprint had a Marksman style clip, I'd be all over it.

I'm hoping to get the Limited S35v in a drop point. I'm such a dummy, I was in our area's Sporting good store a couple week's back they had it on clearance for $99. I had just spent a bit on the kids for their Fall sports, or I'd have bought it in a heartbeat. Now, I doubt it's still there, or the price is back up to $159. Been kicking myself ever since.

Yikes, this one doesn't really check any boxes for me. I think red, white, and blue on a product is a bit gaudy personally. I don't like the poor durability qualities of Cerakote. I'm not a fan of liner locks... And I especially don't like the weak detent of the Sprint line. Really not feeling that backspacer either. Decent price at least.

Yes
 
It's nice. I like the red white and blue on the blade. A red white and blue Mango Bird style hand sprayed handle would have got me. Pass.

That was a good deal! I bet you'll be able to find that again, eventually.
