I recently went to a old Army and Navy store. I was buying some Buck knives when the owner went to a old metal cabinet with all of his Buck knives that were not out. In the very back of the cabinet was a knife with tape and glue and lots of dust. The handle looked black and I thought it was 300 series knife. He gave me a good price and I bought it. As a knife collector, this kind of find doesn't happen everyday.
After cleaning the knife, it turned out to be a 703. It had the "real" wood and the "B" for Buck on the knife was the old english style "B". Their were no marks after the 703.
I have a knife I bought in 1974 with the old english "B" and my next knife in years was a 1980 and it has a normal "B". I wonder if the knife could be that old, or maybe much newer? Anyone have a clue?
