Bucklite 426 Work-Man

[Haebbie]

Messieurs,

This knife is offered in a German knife forum.
It does roundabout 65 USD (without Box).
If one of you like to get it I would handle the deal for you.
As I understood the seller doesn't ship overseas. But I do.
And: --- The early bird catches the worm.

Best,
Haebbie

first time i have seen the blue handle!!!!
that is hard to find!!!
this would be right up ITE's ally..
MHO is it is over priced ... hard to find yes
but still not to command that price..

334dave is right, I do collect 422s, 426s and other Bucklite knives... But I collect the 3 rivet Bucklites more... I don't have this one yet... But I'm trying to buy something off of the bay... And I'm trying to buy a white handle 119 off a guy I met at the swap meet... ... Next time maybe...... ....

I don't know nothing about the value of these knives.
But I thought it would be interesting for some of you.
Are you interested to be informed about rare
Buck knives in Germany further on?

Best,
Haebbie

(How about Luger and Walther parts???)

How about Luger and Walther parts???

Luger and Walther? what's that?

But do you know Kalaschinkow??

You find a lot of them here, and the parts too.

Kalashnikov??? I have a couple...

But I am re-barreling Luger/Mauser/Walther these days...and replacing worn out parts...hard to find nowadays...

BTW: The drop-point 426 Buck Lites are the good ones to find...I spent $46USD last one I bought...a maroon 426 drop-point...now I have two...but no green...

I'm still looking for green drop point 426...maybe I can trade maroon for one...

I just saw one on the US eBay still in the clam pack. It should go for about $50. FYI.

Hühnchen, you need a license in Germany if you like to own shotguns, and another one for carrying them and it is very restricted to get them.
And that goes for parts too. I don't have a licence, so I can't buy or trade.

The Bucklite is very rare in Germany. It has to be imported by somebody who offers it at ebay now or later.

Best,
Haebbie

Sometimes, you may have to cut the barrel shoulder back a thread or two on a lathe to get it to seat properly.

I turn & thread my own barrels from Numrich blanks.

Keep in mind some barrel/frame threads are tapered. If you do this, you're going to have to shorten the chamber(forcing cone on a revolver).

I use Clymer finishing chambering barrel reamers.

You must have a great set of fine tools at your disposal.

Some good; some homemade...many old...

Are your AKs pre-'59 with forged receivers?

No, all stamped. Just surplus parts assembled with new stamped receivers.

I've been doing this on & off since the 70's...Don't have a lot of time anymore...and less energy...and now, no disposable $$$...

BTW: Brownells has some pretty decent hollow ground screwdriver bits(Magna). For the money, they're great. You can just chuck 'em when they get boogered up. It sure beats grinding your own.

Those bits are supposed to have a life time warranty as well. Send 'em back!!

I see you have your house in order...

I be still learnin'...Always something new...As the saying goes, you can learn something from the humblest of men...

I just don't learn as quick anymore...
