... a 300 series classic four (or five) blade (unofficial) "scout/camp/utility" knife?
Or did Buck decide not to compete with the "Official" BSA/Scout, and plethora of "unofficial" BSA/Scout knives of the 1960's to 1980's?

AFAIK they never have made the classic 4 blade Scout knife. I guess they figured the market was saturated?

Seems to me that there are very few Buck knives that even have a can opener bottle opener or an awl.

I thought not. :(
Oh well. So much for a 100% Buck EDC trio.
A scout/camp/demo knife is a required part of my EDC. Has been since 1960 or 1961.
 
The SwissBuck's were "Super Scouts" - I bought one that was very nearly identical to an Official Scout, but gave it to my daughter 15 or so years ago. She still has it and uses it. OH

I suppose the closest 300 Series "Scout" knife would be the 319.
