That's the Buck/Strider right? I've handled a 881 (mini) but thought it was to thick, not my liking in a knife. But that's great that you have a knife you love! We all are lucky to be able to own something we love, witch ever knife that may be. ENJOY!! 
*what's the blade steel? I know where there is a BG42 one (mini).

Nice.
I just recently picked up an 882 SBTG. It is a thing of beauty. Fit and finish is damn near perfect, blade is perfectly centerd, there is absolutely zero play, the line locks up SOLIDLY dead center on the blade, ands down the best knife I have ever owned.
I also picked up my first 110 recently, which while beatiful and perhaps the sharpest out of the box of any knife I have ever experienced, is not quite as solid. While open everything is tight, but while clsed the blade sits against the right bolster, and seems a little "loose" side to saide. I am not sure if this is normla for a lockback or not?
Anyway, they are both beautiful and solidly put together knives, they are Bucks #4 and 5 for me, and I am already eyeing #6, the 888 Solution. Can't wait till we get a glimpse of the new Buck Strider collaborations.
Keep up the good work Buck!

I'm looking for both the 880sp and 881sp with bg42. It would be great if anyone could email me any details about availability of these knives.
