Hi all. I was wondering if some buck guru could help name a buck folder I used to have and lost. The handle was about 2.5 to 3 inches long, metal - I would guess aluminum, black, and straight - no curve in handle. I believe it was pillar construction with a triangular hole cut into each scale for a lanyard hole. The blade was drop point with thumb stud. It had a pocket clip. It was about the size of a cigarette lighter. I would guess I bought it around 2002 to 2005 but can't remember where. Never seen one again.
 
Sorta sounds like a 170 or its larger brother 175, maybe..

And welcome to the Buck forum.
 
The 170 and larger 175 are as you described. I have always considered these "sleepers" in the Buck family of smaller pocket carry knives. Silky smooth opening and closing, as any folding Alpha. I nearly always have one in a pocket, no matter what other Buck I might be carrying.
 
I can't believe some of the bogus Buck's that you see on the bay ended up on that Google photo spread of Buck Knives that you get when you click on the link in Oregon's post.
 
I would never have guessed that the target knife was a lightning never having owned one myself. Good work.

The astounding flood of fakes, counterfeits and knockoffs is, I fear, only a prelude. You can trace their entrance into this country to Alibaba which will go public next week ringing their cash register to the toon of 200 billion US dollars +. Miserable trash straight out of hell, investment bankers and other Americans, are making this happen. Do you think honest American business, Buck Knives, Inc. for example, stands a chance? Bwahaaaa ha ha ha.

Go to Alibaba, just a google away, and key word search "Buck knife" for proof.

I read something recently (can't remember where) about how alibaba had to clean up the counterfit content in order to move forward with the investors. Boy, that was sure a smokescreen.....
 
It is truly ridiculous to see what they sell on that site listed as a "Buck 110" knife. I don't know much about their "tech" business which seems to be the main allure of this IPO but I have seen this site pop up many times over the years while doing searches for manufacturing and industrial chemicals and I always considered it spam.

Sorry, forgot the OP's intent and did not mean to hijack the post.

Hong Kong, once the capital of rubber dog shit, rejected Alibaba's IPO because baba wouldn't follow the island's rule of law. Americans, thrown out of every decent country as their wretched refuse to collect here and now controlled by dens of elite thieves. Now, where to dump the financial miscreants? Maybe drop a few investment bankers on the other terrorists. The ones in Persia.
