I know there are lots of people who love the current Buck line up. However, I guess I am more into the one handed knives. I would like to have a 110, I just know I won't ever use it because of its heft and the fact I can't clip it to my pocket.

I just wanted to say that I am really impressed with this knife. If Buck keeps putting out knives like this with quality steel I will be buying them. I am sure there are others that are just like me as the one handers are what has been popular for awhile now.

It has a great feel in the hand, nice G10, and that great S30V Bos treated blade. I am also VERY impressed with how thin it is ground. This thing should make a great slicer which is what a knife is meant to do.

Just wanted to pop in and say keep up the good work and hopefully someone from Buck might see this and try to let your company grow into this newer market that seems so popular right now.

Now if you could just come up with a fancy lock like an AXIS or the lock on the Kershaw RAM and I think Buck could be the next big thing. The fact that you have different models with upgraded materials and steels should really appeal to the knife knuts and hopefully could really help out this great American Icon company.

Thanks and Good Job!!!

I agree with you FMB. Have had a 347 for about a month and it has restored some of my confidence in Buck Knives.

All the overseas made Bucks seem like junk. Although my Korean (Buck name on them) scissors are nice and have been holding up really well after several years of hard use.
IMHO

I'd be curious to know which ones you have from offshore that are junk. I have a few different ones and all of them seem to be pretty much OK knives.

The closest thing to "junk" that I own (IMO) is a Juno and it's made here in the US.

I'm not disputing you, just would like to know which ones to avoid. :)
