December BOTM is the model 212

Drop point 112 in Magancut?

Drop point 112 in Magancut?

You've been wishing for that^ longer than I've been wishing for the 112 Slim Select Magnacut. Sooner or later Buck will see the wisdom in those two designs and just add them to the regular lineup.

I'm just going to pop in here for my yearly wish for another 100 series knife with the Lucite Betsy Ross flag handle.

Also, I'm going to suggest to Buck that for the year 2026, which is the USA's 250 birthday, they do a different knife each month with the Betsy Ross flag handle!

A Betsy Ross 117 gets my vote!

This exclusive Buck 212 Fixed Ranger knife features a satin-finish, S30V stainless steel, clip point blade. The handle is made of a dark burgundy canvas Micarta with a brass pommel and guard. Complete with a distressed, black leather sheath.

Each knife is handcrafted at our factory in Post Falls, Idaho and only 1,000 of these knives were made. As part of the Buck of the Month program, each knife comes with a Certificate of Authenticity, verifying the unique, limited build.



Expensive IMO for a 212 with S30V blade

I’m probably the minority, but disappointed that there were no traditional slipjoints this year.

Too close in looks to the SKBlades "Ranger" version that I already have... only difference is in the blade, pommel and guard material. I'm tempted, but at the same time,
I'm Meh on it. Will have to mull it over a bit... I can put the $200 towards something I really want in the forth coming Christmas sales.

If the blade was MagnaCut.... then that would have been a completely different ball game, and my credit card would have taken a hit.

Agreed. Buck's May offering of the 212 with S45VN/Brass/Black Phenolic was a bargain at $124.99.

1000 knives seems maybe a few too many at $200 each.

F FranklinG edited for correction Nice catch.

My thought exactly

 

[jbmonkey]

I got enough 212s, so I'm passing.....looks good though and if I collected 212s I'd be tempted.......

I'll have to double check mine, but I thought it was S45VN? It's my only 212, and a great little knife in the kitchen.

You're not alone.

 

[BuckShack]

I think I have this

 

[Happy Hippo]

I collect 212s so I have to get it. But I agree with others on how similar it is to previous offerings. Also, the price seems high and the quantity too high.

 

[Vaporstang]

Nice! I would probably grab one some other time, but I've bought a couple of knives this month already.

Edit: Plus I have several already.

 

[brianv]

I have been disappointed in most of the BOTM offerings this year.

Exactly what I thought, somehow I end up with three of them so I don't need one of these,

 

[Lesknife]

I was kinda hoping for a slip joint as well either a 303 or 301. Or any 300 series slippy for that matter.

 

[bucksway]

Ah..So many knives and light on cash..

 

[GPyro]

But it comes with that wonderful sheath!!!
???




Never mind.
