I have something with the saw cut plastic that comes on the US made Buck 300 knives, and the Old timer knives. I just can not stand the feel. I just got a Buck 301 in the mail today. I want to take off the plastic scale and replace it with some nice wood. I did this with another knife, and have attached a few pics. Should I do this with a new Buck. I really like the configuration of the this knife and how the sheeps foot ( or coping blade) is on one end by itself in stead of with the main blade. Should I put this one in the box and look for a used Buck? (It seems as if I always come up with a reason to buy another knife;))





 
sure you can do it! what you did looks grand!
jest keep in mind that if you do you void the life time buck warenty !
 
Thanks guys for the help. I have decided to put some wood on this baby. I will carry it and enjoy it like it was made for (not sitting in the safe). I will take pics of the process as it goes. I am sure I will not be using the warranty (but that is a good point, and thank you for bringing it up). If anything happen to this one, I am sure it would be replaced by a China made stockman. I have a few Bucks that need to go in for repair, but never get around to it. I just buy a new knife if is a common one like the 110.


Thanks,
John
