I don't know if that title makes sense...........But what current Buck knives are being produced that you just have a hunch that they'll be discontinued and you will wish you had bought multiples of, and haven't yet. A few years ago, you could get a paperstone 110 for around $20. I bought one and loved it and figured there was no hurry, at $20, I can alway pick a couple more up later. I didn't and now my lone 110 ecolite/paperstone is a safe queen because they are so highly priced, I'd hate to lose the one i have. (I did try to buy and extra 110, the online store sent a 112 paperstone instead and I just kept that one.) Other past Bucks I let slip through the cracks are the yellow delrin 300 series. I have one 309 and could have should have picked up more........
Current knives that I think I might probably regret not buying more of, the 501. I have one vintage one that I really like. For me, about the perfect size and proportioned knife. Can be carried in your pocket easily, but has a nice sheath you can use as well, not very expensive. I always plan on buying another, and whatever is next to it in the display case usually catches my eye and I come away with a different knife. Same with the 55, I have one and I hear rumors every year that it is going to be discontinued. Also, the brass and wood 300 series I feel like could go the way of the yellow 300 series. I have one 301 brass and wood and it is a great knife, I probably should have more for backups. Also, maybe the vantage series doesn't seem to get much love with all of the new Bucklites that are out.
What are your thoughts on current great Buck knives that we might miss in a few years?
