Buck Bro's,

I have been wanting to "collect" a Buck Vanguard and am curious as to what all "handles" have been offered. I do not intend to "use" this knife so I am not interested in the rubber handle model. I see Cocobola wood, and some kind of "cherry" wood offered. Was Stag ever offered? Who has the definitive answer on what all has been offered with this particular model?

thanks!

There is a 192 in the very back of the 07 dealer catalog. The knife has a mirror polished blade with an elk cutout in the blade, and an elk/walnut handle. I have also seen some with charcoal handles. Hope this helps.

Thos are nice looking Vanguards. I notice I dont seem to see too many pictures of Vanguards on this site. I like them.
 
I'd love to see some more photo of them. I'm thinking of putting a few Vanguars on my Christmas list.
 
Thats a good start. Yes post more. Pleeeeeaaaaassssseeee post more. After seeing that AG I think it might have to go on my Christmas list. I had one before, but got rid of it. Stupppppppppiiiiiiiiidddddddd me.

They are "rubbery" :)

Quite comfy to use and they have good grip wet or dry. It isnt a real soft rubber, but you can flex it and move it around (a very little)
Its not hard plastic like a phenolic handle.
