Hello my friends.

I need some help!
I've bought a buck Intrepid and the screw that fix the handles to tank is torx drive type, but, on all sites that sell this knive and on Buck Knives page this screw is slotted drive type. Also the item number of the knive I've bought is 0189-TA-0 and on the Buck Knive page the item number of Intrepid is BU-189T. My question: Is the knive I've bought a real Buck Intrepid? :(
Thank you.

Claudio, you could also go the Buck Knives forum in the "Makers/Mfgs" section of this site. They would probably know.

From what you have described, with the model number arranged in a different order, you may have a real Buck, but just one of a different year of manufacture than what you have compared it with.

But I don't know a lot about Buck numbering, so don't take my guess as gospel!
