My first BUCK knife was a 102 back in the late 1970s or early 1980s. I used it in my work as a warehouseman for the post office. I knocked off a bit of the trailing point to make it more friendly as I was using it more or less constantly at times. I still have that little blackie and it has seen more than a few game animals as well. In (I think) 2007 my Son sent me a BUCK Alpha folder with a birthday engraving on it, and that was the very first collectible knife I had ever known. I had had many knives as tools before that. I still carry that knife occasionally but I never actually use it. Kaleb Reynolds (Muskrat Man) put amber bone covers on it in place of the rubberoid thingies. Since then I have accumulated and even collected quite a few BUCKs, mostly fixed blades.
