I was looking at the cattleknives, & was thinking it's ALMOST like John & I were talking about. Did Buck ever make 1 or will they in the future? If you plan on making a batch, I take 1 of each :D
 
If by Cattle Knives, you mean the jumbo or Cattle King size stockman, then yes, Buck did used to make one, the 307 Wranger.
 
307 in it's three variations, oldest #1 down.
1. Made in USA, 307 on reverse tang
2. Buck, 307, USA on front tang
3. Buck, 307, USA on tang, BUCK scale shield

 
Is one of those blades called a "spay" blade??? :confused:

One of my dog breeding friends told me once that he spayed (or was it neutered?) his cats with a pocket knife...said it took about 5 minutes...no anesthesia... :eek:

I don't know if he was porking me or not...he's definitely capable of it... :barf:

Yep, I actually witnessed such an event once many, many years ago in which my grand daddy stuck a young cat head first into a boot and did the deed; was too young to understand at the time, but still remember that cat's pitiful howl. He also routinely did young bull calves as well, obviously without the boot. Dang, don't you know that hurt!! Certainly didn't take five minutes; probably not more than one, tops, but probably seemed an eternity for the cat.
 
Did they sharpen there knife up and then have to "cut wood". Every time I witnessed my uncles casterating calfs you had to cut a couple of slices in some wood after touching up the blade. Only later as a high school gradg -u-ate did I realize it took the wire edge off after sharpening. 300$s
 
Don't remember that wood thing, but I do remember him returning the knife to his pocket, and then shortly thereafter, making a trip down to the root cellar to get an apple, which he subsequently peeled and sliced with the same knife, all without washing!!

had heard o cutting wood but not why...

Well just for fun I checked back to the late 1960's when Buck first started selling the 300 series and I could not find anything that talked about the uses of each blade type. The Buck catalogs did refer to a "spey" blade though and according to my spell checker, the correct spelling is "spay".
So there you have it, I have absolutely nothing of value to ad to this thread....:rolleyes::D
