The haul, 112 BOM, fish cleaver, Paradigm Shift (trade with terrific employee), topo 110 orange lites, beautiful rosewood steak knives, outstanding Haxby in carbon fiber (look & feel of ZT top of line) my new favorite, 523 prototype blue anodized aluminum with SS clip lockback (like 521 or 424 but really excellent evolution), belt cutters for cars (attach with magnets in cabin).

Excellent experience all in. Stayed @ Red Lion in Post Falls on the clear beautiful Spokane River , venue for next year’s BCCI bash, loved it. Adults and kids will love the beach there. Brilliant pizza within easy walking distance.

Many hearty thanks to Buck and the helpful, happy and wise employees dealing with me. They made me feel like I was among trusted friends. You know who you are. May you all live a thousand years.
 
Raffle knife: The largest blade was found. It was combined with the fattest antler handle yielding:

Good to see you here with an excellent report, Steve, thanks. You made some great purchases...
Good luck on the drawing for the Buck Bowie!
 
the drawing for the buck bowie costed 20 dollars to enter your name---the last i seen there was not a lot of names in the pot so i think the odds for winning are fairly good....the knife was built by danny perritti--the fellow that does all the spa treatments and warranty work--danny has been with buck for over 40 years--it is 440c steel with big fat stag handle-
badass knife...
 
got this little beauty at the factory sale---blade is 526 and it has real black dlc coating on it--mother of pearl handles---hard to get pics of mop ..
Very nice, congrats, sitting your chair out in the rain paid off!:) Good to see that there is someone there that's able to take parts and make something like this...like they(Joe) use to do.
