CHEAP Tiny Buck fixed blade at Cabellas?

I was at Cabellas the other day and noticed a Buck Fixed Blade there that was pretty small, maybe 2-3" blade, kind of a skeltonized handle. There was jimping about mid-way up the spine of the blade, like an inch or so from the tip and the blade stile was kind of a nesmuck-ish droppoint?

Has anyone seen what I'm talking about at their local Cabellas? It looked like it was decent, and it was very, very cheap. Under $10
 
Uhh, this one?

It's the 135 Paklite caper. I've fancied picking one up as a fixed blade EDC, but I really don't need one.

No, they did have one like that there next to it, but this one is even smaller. The sheath was nothing but a little plastic slip to cover the blade too. The thing that stuck out to me was how inexpensive it was, almost like it was meant to be disposable.
 
The Smidgeon. Neck knife, looks like you can only get 2 fingers on it.

Hmm, that's actually a heck of a lot cooler than the one I saw.

I think I'll just go back down there sometime this week and snap a pic. Maybe no one is aware of them yet, they look pretty nice.
 
Maybe it's a new design for 2014. The Paklite I first posted has a 2.5" Nessmuk-like blade. Perhaps Cabela's has a different plastic sheath for it? I'd prefer that, actually.
