Buck Slimline 721 vs. Spitfire 722

What is/are the differences between these 2 knives?

If I remember right the handle shape and one was sold at Walmart.

Yes, the handle is slightly different. They both have the same blade, but the Slimline, sold only at Walmart, is missing the top swedge.



For comparison, here is a Spitfire and a Mini SpitFire:

Hmmm...DLT is showing both as available.

Walmart dropped them possibly. Open game after that?

They are slightly different styles of blades. As I remember, the 721 Slimeline was a Walmart exclusive. The blade and handle on the 721 was more "rounded" and had a bit of a more streamlined feel. The 722 Spitfire was a more beefy blade in comparison with a more "blocked" off design. I am on shift atm but once I get home, I can provide a side by side of the two I have.

I’m glad you posted this because I’ve seen the different ones at wally world and never knew what it was and really didn’t like the looks of it. I think I like the spitfire a lot better. I’m gonna check them out better now that I’ve seen this comparison.
